2013 Blighted Structure Survey Program
22/04/13 14:05
2013 Blighted Structure Survey Program
CITY OF EAST CHICAGO, INDIANA – The East Chicago Building Department has implemented its “2013 Blighted Structures Survey Program” throughout each and every neighborhood in the City of East Chicago, Indiana.
The purpose of this survey is to make sure that all blighted structures in each neighborhood have been inspected, recorded, and compliance procedures initiated on each blighted structure. The survey list will then be crosschecked with Building and Code Enforcement Departments’ inspection reports on file. The list will then be prioritized by first addressing those vacant structures with conditions that constitute a hazard to public health, safety and welfare.
The survey will entail conducting a visual exterior inspection of blighted structures, whether vacant or occupied, and unkept grounds surrounding the structures. The inspection survey is currently being conducted by Code Enforcement Inspectors until all City neighborhoods have been inspected.
Mayor Copeland stated, “We have to work together as a community to change our city. This is not an easy task, we must beautify our city as a team.”
In recognition of the problems created in a community by vacant structures, the Building and Code Enforcement Departments find that vigorous and disciplined action should be taken to ensure the proper maintenance and repair of these vacant structures.
Our mission is to preserve our neighborhoods through an efficient unbiased code enforcement plan designed to promote and maintain a safe and desirable living environment which will improve property value and enhance the quality of life of all the residents of the City of East Chicago.
For information relating to the issuance of building permits and contractor licensing, please contact the East Chicago Code Enforcement office at (219) 391-8351 or visit the City’s website at www.eastchicago.com.
