 Moving into the neighborhood revitalization activities what I'm going to do is kind of run through what we've been doing as it relates to the city's strategic plan and then talk a little bit about court enforcement. So we have identified an area of the community primarily what we would call the central city neighborhoods from roughly an area of North Avenue and then drew a line basically on 18th Street on the south side. So this red line you see on this map is the boundaries of our five-year plan as it relates to the city's strategic plan. In that plan we identified the neighborhoods that we're targeting so that the neighborhoods on here that are in gray represent the 2017 targeted neighborhoods and the ones that are in the red or pink represent the 2018 neighborhoods. So the 2018 neighborhoods were Erie Hill, Gateway, Sheridan Park and Swift. We wouldn't be able to do this without interdepartmental cooperation so we continue to have bimonthly meetings of the different departments to identify issues that are rising in neighborhoods. You can see the departments that have been in those meetings and involved with the discussions and we also invite the Lakeshore Department Association, the Landlord Association to those meetings to give us, we give them 15 minutes in the beginning to talk about any concerns they have. We can share with them things that we're working on so there's communication between the Landlord Association and the city. Next slide. So what we're doing as part of the strategic plan is developing baselines for the neighborhoods so not only are we sending code enforcement officers into those targeted neighborhoods, we're also doing a survey and walking parcel by parcel and ranking the condition of the properties. We've never done baseline mapping of neighborhoods before so we really don't have a lot of data to see how well we've done and how with neighborhoods have progressed over time. So in the targeted neighborhoods there's a criteria as it relates to the building condition, whether the property has maintenance issues, how the roof is, landscaping. So they rank all of those different pieces and then we map them in GIS which you can see here on the right side of the slide. We map them in GIS with the different issues and codes and stuff so that it's, we're developing baseline so we can go back in the future and see how neighborhoods are doing. So the plan is to circle back to the neighborhoods within the next five years or so and see where, what kind of progress has been made. Next slide. We are also, we've instituted some lighting so we hear a lot of complaints at neighborhood meetings about the darkness of our neighborhoods especially in the central city areas. So with the help of the police department and the third shift officers they have gone out both in 2017 and 2018 and mapped areas that are dark. So the darker the blue on this map, the darker the street is. So we then went and identified areas where either there's a, if there was no light present we worked with aligned energy to have lights installed in those areas and if there was lights present then we got them replaced or updated or whatever to identify those issues. So we last year spent about 37,000 of block grant dollars putting additional lights in the core central city neighborhoods. If you go to the next slide. So in 2018, 2019 I know this is hard to read but we went and mapped basically the rest of the, looked a survey then mapped the rest of the central city neighborhoods and the boundary that we're targeting. So our goal going forward is to continue to add additional lights in the entire strategic plan area so that we can address the concerns of safety at night and lights and those types of things. So next slide. We were successful in 2018 to neighborhoods became associations, the historic grant neighborhood and the Volrath North Point neighborhood association. And then here's a list of notable neighborhood achievements and events that have happened over the course of the year. Everything's from signage to historic walks. Cleanups is a big thing. Adopt a family for holidays, a neighborhood planning block parties, an aldermatic forum. And then you recently heard about the adopt a park pilot program. As it relates to the targeted neighborhoods, we then went back in and identified two really of the worst areas within the north and south side neighborhood and two rock the block events in partnership with Habitat for Humanity was held. So in the spring we did the Keeney court area and you can kind of see the work that was done and the outcome of that and then this past fall in October we did the south side south ninth street area and did a number of projects as well. So this was a way of trying to take those those the worst of the worst in that baseline mapping area and trying to bring some fresh new ideas. So that was a very successful partnership with Habitat for Humanity. Next slide. And then we're working with the neighborhood associations to develop so they all have projects and needs and thoughts and you know some of them want to conquer the neighborhood and you know it's to try to get these these people on the leaders of the neighborhoods on path to understanding what their long range goal is. We've developed what we're calling a plan on a page. So it's a one or two page plan that really identifies what the demographics of the neighborhood are, what the incomes of the neighborhood are, looks at their history and the vision and then it deals with any challenges and who's going to be responsible for. So this is the idea of the neighborhood taking responsibility on taking on those initiatives as well as if they've got initiatives that the city needs to deal with they can share those with us as well and we can work together to accomplish the goals of their neighborhood. So the goal is to have every neighborhood association that has an updated plan on a page if you will for their neighborhood to work on. Next slide. So looking into 2019, what are we hoping to accomplish? Basically a lot of the same but we're calling it a second wave of the lighting improvements. So we're going to work to get the rest of the lights installed in the central city neighborhoods continue to establish base lines for our four targeted neighborhood associations. There's an initiative with the Department of Public Works to hopefully develop a large item cleanup for neighborhood associations so we can deal with some of the larger trash that we deal with on a daily basis under nuisance and sanitation issues. Expansion of the adoptive park into other neighborhoods. The city has a neighborhood grant opportunity so we're going to we continue to help neighborhoods fund different activities within their neighborhood and then create two more neighborhood development plans. Under code enforcement so we have had two part-time code enforcement officers for the last three or four years and really I think where we're at is the fact that we've identified a we've taken care of a lot of the low hanging fruit. Now the stuff that's left is a little bit more challenging and takes a little bit more education to get people to comply. So we like to say that in extreme cases they're considered neighborhood killers because they really bring down the whole morale and the whole you know the whole neighborhood as a whole and the concern we have is if we don't address these issues that becomes the new standard for these neighborhoods and people don't call in and don't complain and they just kind of go on with their life and then that's the way it is. So as you know with all these other initiatives it doesn't only happen with the building inspection or planning department we have to work with partnership with the other departments and we greatly appreciate that. Next slide. So focusing efforts with neighbors and neighborhood associations has proven to be successful and we're at the point really now of spending a lot of time educating residents and property owners on the importance of keeping their properties up. So that's you know we may not our numbers may be lower than couple years ago but the ones you know now it's really about getting out there and making sure that this is sustaining itself so we don't have to continually be doing this. So that's kind of where we're at today. These are just some real quick examples of stuff we see. This was some property in January of 2018 so this is their porch in the front of their house. Next slide. This is hard to see but this is a roof that has hardly any rocks left on the shingles. You see these these are garages and garages is a challenge in alleys and you know areas that are densely planted so we've targeted garages. Parking on grass is another issue. City ordinance requires that cars would be parking on paved surfaces. These are just some examples of houses that are under construction or have received orders and that have complied with some new steps and handrails and guardrails and safety and all that kind of good stuff. So the process real briefly is we survey the neighborhood, receive a complaint, do a neighborhood walk by survey, a notice is sent. After the notice is sent there's a timeline to comply. If they fail to comply we issue citations and if they ultimately default on those citations it's in the hands of municipal court to handle and the city attorney's office to handle the prosecution piece of it. Our goal is not to be citing. Our goal is to get compliance but we do get a number of people that just do not respond to us and there's no other there's no other means of trying to get their attention but issuing a citation. The challenge with that is that the citations are 681 dollars per violation so it adds up quick. Next slide. This is this is small but what I would say is the red identifies the 2018 housing complaints that we've completed in this year and the blue is the 2018 nuisance so it's not one particular neighborhood although there's a stronger concentration in the areas of the neighborhoods we've targeted but it's pretty uniform across the entire city when you take this year's court orders and map them out in GIS to see where we've been so that's all I have I'm happy to answer any questions if not more to come as we move into 2019.
