Strategic Neighborhood Initiative


The Property Standards Division has added a new community support program to compliment its current set of programs. The new program is called the Strategic Neighborhood Initiative (SNI). Under this program, neighborhood groups can identify up to a five-block area within their neighborhood for intensive code enforcement. This is the third in a series of community support programs which include the Neighborhood Response Team (NRT) inspection program and the Neighborhoods Organized To Initiate Code Enforcement (NOTICE) program.

The areas identified for inspection can be a series of contiguous blocks or a series of different blocks within the neighborhood. This program is only available to organized neighborhood organizations. Once the inspection area has been identified, the Property Standards division will make the inspections and will provide the group with a report on the progress of the inspections.

Groups interested in participating in this program need to contact the Property Standards division at 862-6590.
