<br /> E. Rehabilitation of buildings in Downtown Renewal 'Project area by January 1976
<br /> ,

<br /> iRehabilitation of Buildings in Renewal project Area - Manager explained that ,
<br /> (the ERA downtown renewal project plan provided for rehabilitation of existing ,
<br /> buildings,identified by blocks, which met certain standards. All structures ,
<br /> I
<br /> i
<br /> designated for rehabilitation were to comply with fire prevention regulations.
<br /> Necessary work had been completed on most of the buildings in the project area,
<br /> he said, however some 30 or so buildings remained. Since the project was !
<br /> anticipated to be closed out by the end of 1976 it was considered important to !
<br /> expedite rehabilitation commitments. Attention to sprinklering systems and
<br /> lother fire prevention measures was of particular importance because of limited ,
<br /> :accessibility for fire fighting equipment to the pedestrian mall area. ERA
<br /> :has worked ~ith property owners because of concern about the financial impact
<br /> ;and received HUD approval for 3% loan money to a maximum of $50,000 per owner-
<br /> ,ship for rehabilitation purposes. In addition, ERA set up its own lending pro-
<br /> igram bas/~d on money borrowed from local banks at 6-1/4% for amounts more than I
<br /> I
<br /> :$50,000. Council was asked to consider adoption of an ordinance setting a
<br /> ! deadline of Jan~ar.Y_-12?6.for"c:~!EP..letiql},of l}ec.~?s~r.y Jehabili ta tion work - to -'
<br /> bring -"th-e 'remaining buildings into compliance wi th codes. ..' Pi:op'ertyoWTiers--:nave -, ...?'
<br /> ,~een made:aware.of the necessity for completing the work and of the availability
<br /> 'of financial assistance through ERA and HUD. There will be an ,appeal and hearing
<br /> procedure available to people although property owners will be encouraged to com-
<br /> plete the work prior to the suggested January 1976 deadline.
