Summary

At Deb Tyson's request, the committee reviewed vacant-property registration rules and confirmed owners of vacant buildings must register under Chapter 13.07 of the city's codified ordinances; there is no public vacant-property list, but administration is modernizing systems and the zoning department expects to generate data reports later this year.

The chair reported on a prior request from Deb Tyson regarding vacant-property registration. According to the chair, owners of vacant buildings are required to register with the city under Chapter 13.07 of the codified ordinances. The chair noted there is not currently a public list separating homeowner-owned properties from landlord-owned properties.

The administration is updating software systems, and the zoning department indicated it will be able to generate data reports and provide more efficient tracking later in the year. The chair moved to close the item and a committee member seconded; the item was closed for now with the expectation that improved data reporting will follow once the administration's system updates are complete.

The committee did not record additional policy actions or changes to the ordinance in this meeting.
