Code-enforcement lien foreclosure as a land acquisition tool
Summary
The committee wants staff to build a process allowing the city to foreclose on properties with large unpaid code-enforcement liens and potentially turn them into affordable housing sites. It's an extreme tool the city rarely uses, so the process would be tight — but even one recovered lot could become a home.
