Top issues during term (20)
Dilapidated structure enforcement
Demolition costs get invoiced to property owners, and unchecked derelict houses drag down neighborhood safety and values.
FISTA Central Plaza lease changes
Not quantified on the agenda.

Ward funds come from landfill gate fee revenue allocated to the eight wards; the failed ordinance would not have changed the amount, only the allowable uses.
