Code enforcement is a powerful and often overlooked system capable of not only fixing issues on problem properties, but also strengthening neighborhoods. Many local governments dealing with a lot of vacant, abandoned, and deteriorated properties are finding traditional code enforcement—focused on issuing citations and collecting fines—isn't working. A more strategic approach focused on compliance could change that.
This webinar will unveil a new resource, Reevaluating Code Enforcement: A New Approach to Addressing Problem Properties, in which Community Progress details steps local governments can take towards a more equitable, efficient, and effective code enforcement system. It will also highlight steps one major city—Cincinnati—has taken toward adopting this approach. Community Progress will also share the details of a new scholarship for technical assistance services we are launching to help local governments reimagine their code enforcement processes.
Join this webinar to: - Learn about the benefits of shifting from traditional code enforcement to strategic code compliance
- Understand how your community can adopt a more strategic, compliance-oriented approach
- Understand how to apply a strategic code compliance approach to vacant, rental, and owner-occupied properties
- Hear examples from cities that have implemented strategic code compliance policies and practices
- Learn about a scholarship opportunity for local governments interested in evaluating and reimagining their code enforcement process
