Roswell code enforcement seeks partners to help seniors with property upkeep
Summary
Keith Keeney said the department is developing an initiative to find outreach partners and contractors to assist seniors and others unable to maintain properties, and invited volunteers to help.
Keeney described a new effort to support senior citizens and residents who cannot otherwise maintain property and who in the past may have been cited because they lacked assistance.
"We are in the process of creating a new initiative, to where we're looking for help for senior citizens and people that can't really help themselves in the city," he said, explaining that an officer is now spending significant time identifying outreach programs, churches and contractors willing to assist residents in need.
Keeney invited listeners to volunteer: "If there's someone who's gonna listen to this and know someone who wants to volunteer... that could call and just say, hey, I'm willing to help too." He framed the initiative as a way to reduce unnecessary citations and to support vulnerable residents.
