Gentlemen,
This letter is to encourage the City Council to hire a
full-time Code Enforcement Officer for the City of Lodi as soon
as possible.
As per the Central City Revitalization Strategy adopted by
the council in December, 1994, the first objective for the
East -Side Neighborhood is to expand the code enfocement
efforts. Hiring an officer to a full-time position is necessary
to help to eliminate the blighted and unsafe conditions of
this area.
If we have any chance or hope to encourage home ownership
and renovation of the East -Side Neighborhood, we need to
correct the increasingly negative image of this neighborhood.
The C.C.R.T.F, stongly urges the City Council to swiftly
move to establish this full-time position. Thank you for
your prompt action.
Sincerely
Tdny�gal9,�Chair
Central City Revitalization Task Force
