TO: Glenda Saul, Director of RDA FROM: Evlyn Wilcox, Mayor SUBJECT: Beautification Program DATE: May 8, 1986 (6703) COPIES: ------------------------------------------------------------- . After reviewing the Revised Beautification Program I whole- heartly give it my support for the following reasons: a) This program can be administered simply and in a cost-efficient manner -- a necessity in the face of revenue reducing times. b) This program is flexible enough to provide matching grants, low interest loans, or in some eases, combination grant/loans. This flexibility will allow AnY business in our community to take advantage of the beautification program regardless of their economic status. For example, a business of meager income can obtain a matching grant of $999.00 and a 5-year/5' loan to cover the $1001.00 match. c) The loan rate of 5' will be an incentive to AnY business in our city to use our beautification program. The further 2 1/2' rate incentive for quick principle payback is an innovative way to get the money back into our coffers for further usage as loans. I must interject here that while small grants are necessary, large grants would prove to be a drain on the RDA Budget and a detriment to an effective, longlasting beautifi : cation program. d) Finally the fact that this program works in concert with my More Attractive Community Program is of great benefit to the City. As you know, MAC concentrates its code enforcement and beautification efforts on highly visible main thoroughfares. All citations and notices given by MAC members to the business community seem to carry with them a financial burden which in many cases can be reduced with these Beautification Funds. As these funds help beautify the businesses on our main arterials, more of our citizens and visitors will take notice of our new image. Congratulations on a fine program. Let's get it implemented as soon as possible for the sake of our businessmen and citizens. . I. . e . . INTEROFFICE MEMORANDUM: 8605-1231 Beautification Program May 8, 1986 Page 2 ~~ EW/nb - . . , .

'1'0: Glenda Saul, Director of RDA FROM: Gregory Garcia SUBJECT: Beautification Program DATE: May 7, 1986 (6702) COPIES: Mayor Wilcox, Sandy Lauder, Ezelle James -- -- 0RIG.5~? ROUTE copy V . Por the last eight months the More Attractive Community Team has been operating primarily in the target area which is bordered by Highland Avenue, Mt. Vernon Avenue, Mill Street and Waterman Avenue, roughly seven square miles. Within the target area the main throughfares of Highland, -E- Street, Mt. Vernon, and Waterman Avenue have been or are being surveyed from the standpoint of code enforcement and beauti- fication. During the next six (6) months the Team will complete surveying, cleaning-up, and maintaining the remaining primary arterials within the target area. Once the main arterials are completed, the expansion of the MAC target boundaries will be announced. Glenda, it is my hope that a revised beautification program is agreed upon soon! Mt. Vernon Avenue, which the MAC Team is currently surveying, desperately needs financial help to eliminate code problems such as illegal signage, old fencing, poor landscaping, etc. It is a real shame that the street with the most need of financial help has been to date the street which has not had the benefit of financial assistance to help resolve code violations brought to their attention by the MAC Team. I will be looking forward to the implementation of a revised Beautification Program for the sake of the City's business ztyo Lo Greg~~ Project ~~rdinator .
