31--TB J E C T : STATUS REPORT ON THE CODE 'ENFORCEMENT PROGRAM
The following statements summarizes the status of the Code Enforcement
Program (CEP) :
During the past two months approximately three hundred violation notices
have been issued. Of these, about one hundred have been received as
a result of individual citizens filing such a complaint. The remaining
two hundred are a result of the area wide survey and issuance of a
courtesy type of notice.
o As a result of the follow-up process about 75% have corrected
the infraction (s) on a voluntary basis at this time .
o Of the remaining 25% all indications suggest that better
than 95% of the violations are in the process of being abated.
• The remaining few percent of the violations will eventually
need to be heard and resolved before the Planning Commission
or City Council depending on the type of infraction.
In summary, the 300 notices translates into approximately
1, 000 individual types of violations of which the percentage
breakdown is roughly as follows :
a. 35% - Rubbish/trash, open storage of materials
and equipment.
b. 25% - Abandoned/inoperative or illegally parked vehicles .
