  • We purchased a severely blighted property in Pottsville

    Pottsville, PA
    Other

    Bobby Weaver, a property owner in Pottsville, PA, describes his experience renovating a severely blighted property using approximately $700,000 in financing from local redevelopment authorities, loans, and grants, but encountered significant obstacles due to code enforcement issues. He identifies three main problems: code officials are risk-averse and poorly educated (requiring only 3 hours of study to become licensed), local officials incorrectly apply the International Building Code instead of Pennsylvania's own Uniform Construction Code, and the confusion between these standards has left his project only half-completed despite engaging 3 architects and 4 lawyers. Weaver proposes legislative solutions to clarify Pennsylvania's existing UCC provisions for historic and uncertified buildings built before 1927, which would provide alternative compliance pathways such as hardwired fire alarms instead of sprinkler systems.

  • Resolution 58-R-19, “Commitment to End Structural Racism and Achieve Racial Equity”

    Evanston, IL
    Other

    Resolution 58-R-19, adopted by the City of Evanston on June 5, 2019, commits the city to ending structural racism and achieving racial equity. The resolution acknowledges Evanston's history of racial discrimination, including the violent relocation of Potawatomi Tribes from the land, the city's namesake John Evans' role in the Sand Creek Massacre that killed approximately 150 Native Americans, and the presence of enslaved and formerly enslaved people including Maria Murray, purchased as domestic labor in 1855. The city council recognizes its use of regulatory and policy tools—including zoning laws supporting redlining and municipal disinvestment in Black communities—that contributed to the decimation of historically Black neighborhoods and collapse of a once economically thriving Black community. In Section 1, the City Council formally acknowledges its history of racially-motivated policies and practices, apologizes for the damage caused, and declares opposition to White Supremacy.
