FINANCIAL IMPACT: This contract will give the City the ability to demolish properties in a cost-effective manner by accepting the lowest proposal and providing the backup contractor with the next lowest cost to ensure service delivery is not hampered. Costs are potentially recovered through billing the property owner and attaching liens on properties that go unpaid. The main funding source for this contract will be Federal CDBG funds.
NEIGHBORHOOD CONCERNS: Dangerous and nuisance properties deteriorate neighborhoods and threaten public safety.
IMPACT IF APPROVED: Removal of dangerous and unsightly structures will have a positive impact on neighborhoods.
IMPACT IF DENIED: Neighborhoods will be blighted with deteriorated and dangerous properties.
