FROM: Allen Davis, Community Development Director
DATE: March 10, 2020
SUBJECT: 20-09 Approve Spot Blight Designation; Approve Acquisition of Property
at 422 Otter Avenue ($15,000)
Background
The property at 422 Otter Avenue is under property maintenance raze orders by the
City. The property is currently vacant and has not been maintained on the interior or
exterior of the house for several years. The owner is willing to sell to the RDA for back
taxes and special assessments which amounts to $15,000 plus closing costs. The
property is in the River East Neighborhood Association.
Analysis
The house at 422 Otter Street is blighted and should be demolished. The Fair Market
Value for the property is $99,000.
The house is located in one of the lowest scoring blocks on the Quality of Life Map. The
property and block score below average for condition, police calls and foreclosures.
The house condition could be a contributing factor to the low score for the block.
Removing the house will increase the block and neighborhood score.
Fiscal Impact
CDBG funds will be used for the acquisition and demolition tipping fees. There are
adequate funds available for this type of blight removal project.
Recommendation
The RDA approves the Spot Blight Designation and approves the Acquisition of
Property at 422 Otter Avenue for $15,000.
