Southeast Quality of Life <br />Strategic Neighborhood Action Plan <br />• The home receivership program should guarantee that those who are given <br />the responsibility of receivership execute that responsibility consistent with <br />neighborhood goals. <br />• An annual cleanup/fix up program should be organized to maintain the <br />momentum established by Christmas in April. <br />• Landlords through financial incentives or peer pressure from the area <br />landlord association should maintain rental properties. <br />• Educational, counseling, and training programs should be established to <br />strengthen the knowledge and skills of owners and tenants regarding <br />property maintenance. <br />• All churches located in the neighborhood should become actively involved <br />in the provision of sound housing and liveable conditions in the <br />neighborhood; an interfaith effort would be most productive. <br />• City financial institutions should terminate redlining practices and treat <br />neighborhood loan applicants uniformly as others in the community are <br />treated. Compliance with mandated Community Reinvestment Act should <br />be strongly enforced and required. <br />• Obsolete homes which are not feasible to rehabilitate should be removed <br />and plans developed for its renewed use. <br />• Compatible interim uses and appropriate maintenance programs should be <br />established for vacant lands which are not to be developed in the near <br />future, e.g. the Technical Institute and the sports fields. <br />11 <br />
