WASMINGTON " I <br /> � ���oz�°s oFr•ic��� � ;` .`�..``"`".,, -t i <br /> • The Housing Division of the Department of Cominunity Development, <br /> during the last several months, has waged a vigorous campaign to <br /> encourage owners of junked vehicles to remove them from their - <br /> properties. <br /> In our opinion, from a strictly voluntary standpoint, this program has <br /> been very successful. Ho�vever, because there is removal cost gendered <br /> by t:lie hiring of to�v t:ucks, etc. , many people have procrastinated <br /> and/or deliberately refused to remove the vehicles. <br /> � Section 171 of E. C. C. 46. 52, 101 classifies abandoned, disinantled, and <br /> inoperative vehicles as publir nuisances and provides for their abatement. I <br /> The Police Department has the power to remove and impound all such <br /> vehicles, but froin a realistic standpoint such re:noval would have to be <br /> paid for by the City� of Everett. <br /> We have estimated Ehat to complete the program, it �vould cost the City <br /> approsimately $1501 to $2000. Altho no monies �.vere allocated in the <br /> budget for this purt ose, an in-house transfer could be made from our <br /> Relocation Grant Ycogram to finance the remova: of wrecked vehicles. � <br /> If you are in concur rence with this action, we �vi�:l work it out with the <br /> Police Department :o do the actual impoundment tivith the cost to be I <br /> defrayed by the De�artment of Community Develrpment. Incidentally, ; <br /> those owners who�c vehicles have been impounded �viil.be billed for <br /> the cost, bu�there-is'no-assurance tha� reimbur:2ment n•ill be forthcoming. <br /> / Fj^��_f 7� \ <br /> r <br /> i (�y ' <br /> ,, <br /> . , <br /> ��0,6 _. / � ,c� CG:� /!Y` !�/'yt`�r.�r' /`l�.1 /i� I <br /> ; � ` . y� - � � � �.� ���, ; <br /> � «./4��7;�>, ��,7`T' il� l'�/�� � <br /> .l �UO<f � s4�cr .t� � u�C �-- ���li/Y�rs+, C`J�< �� ,/�/'�j <br /> � � � <br /> �� GY1 /l20,/_ �`f 1"� /L� C��+1 Tc/!"C C!J Gi'J Px�. !
