FROM a. J, sLO ���
SUBJECT �Ty GpUNCIL RESOLUTION TO WAIVE CODE COMPLIANCE INSPECTIONS IN MERRIAM PARR
I have taken the liberty of drafCing the attached City Council resolution which addresses
the issue of the City providiag information type code inspections in that neighborhood.
This resolution is being proposed as a result of discussions with Glenn Erickson and
Sam Blue of the Division of Housing and Building Code Enforcement and with Council
Presideat David Hozza. All parties generallq concurred that it would be desirable to
use the same inspection process in Merrism Park as is currently being used under the
City�lide Rehabilitation Program. Because of the imoninent implementation of a rehabilita-
tion program in Merriam Park, I would appreciate this matter being brought before City
Council in the near future.
Please advise if you have any questions or concerns about the resolution that I have
prepared.
