    This document contains written responses from City of Scranton administration to questions raised by Council President Tom Schuster at a June 16, 2026 council meeting. Regarding the problem property at 1708 Wayne Avenue, the city advised the homeowner it could be designated a nuisance based on police call volume, with tenants currently under eviction pending appeal; a rental inspection was begun on April 10 but the second reinspection remains unscheduled and the property has not yet passed. Police Department records show approximately eleven incidents at the property since January 1, 2026, while the Fire Department responded twice in 2026 for basement flooding. The administration clarified that the pending RFP being prepared is separate from the EMS Feasibility Study conducted by Fitch & Associates, which evaluated the current EMS system and made recommendations based on response performance and financial impact.
