RE: Approve Spot Blight Designation; Authorize Redevelopment Authority to
Acquire 948 W. 41h Avenue ($19,000) (RDA recommends approval)
BACKGROUND
The RDA held a public hearing to hear comments on the proposed spot blight designation of
the property at 948 W. 4th Avenue. The property is currently listed for sale and not within a
designated redevelopment area and was spot blighted in order for the RDA to acquire it. The
property is currently vacant and in need of demolition. This property is adjacent to the Sacred
Heart Neighborhood Association.
ANALYSIS
The property is assessed at $15,100 for the land, and $28,700 for the house. Staff has inspected
the building and found significant costs for rehabilitation, the costs of rehabilitation would far
outweigh the value of the house. While not in a redevelopment area, the property is adjacent to
the Sacred Heart Neighborhood Association and the lot size and location has good potential for
redevelopment.
FISCAL IMPACT
CDBG grant funds are available for central city, scattered site blight removal. Upon
demolition, the parcel would be offered for redevelopment.
RECOMMENDATION
The Redevelopment Authority recommended approval of the spot blight designation and
acquisition of 948 W. 4th Avenue at its December 18, 2017 meeting.
Respectfully Submitted,
Allen Davis
Community Development Director
