Over 75% of the population in this area have income s that are within the Federal guidelines for low and moderate income. The Rehab Loan Program and new construction in the area has had some impact as 75% of the area was judged as substandard in last year's application and the current estimate of sub- standard units is 60'.{,. The area also fa.ces a serious decline in school enrollment which may cause the elementary school to be closed. Citizens in the neighborhood have expressed concern for the viability of their neighborhood as they feel threatened by the school closing and encroachment by the neighboring industrial area. Contractors currently involved in construc- tion in the area have responded positively to the City's pro- posed efforts towards spurring improvements . There are 186 housing units in the Scenic View area with 75 existing building sites. The application submitted for CD discretionary funds would have the primary focus of opening up 32 potential building sites. The sites would be along the extensions of Baltic and Adriatic. By encouraging new development, the rehabilitation and new construction • I • • - . . • • • • that has already been done will be e nhanced and the develop- ment cycle will be sparked. The rehabilitation effort will be continued. The Program The request for program funds wi·ll outline a comprehen- sive , but concentrated, effort to stabilize and revitalize the neighborhood, particularly in the area of housing. Specific activities and estimated costs are as follows: Streets Right-of-way purchase Street construction Installation of utilities Property acquisition (6 lots/$15,000 ea.) Relocation ($12,500/ea.) Demolition ($2,000/ea.)
