Evansville City Council Candidate Alex Burton Proposes a Broader Approach to Blight Elimination
September 1, 2015
For Immediate Release
Evansville City Council Candidate Alex Burton Proposes a Broader Approach to Blight Elimination
Evansville, IN – Alex Burton, Democrat candidate for an at-large seat on the Evansville City Council, believes the real solution to blight is a program that focuses on prevention and efforts to salvage properties before they are beyond repair.
In the coming weeks, he will outline his plan for a broader approach to the problem of neglected and unsafe properties.
“The administration has a plan to demolish blighted homes that have become eyesores and have a negative impact on entire neighborhoods,†Burton said. “I agree with the goal, but we should also explore ways to salvage homes that are in need of repairs before they deteriorate to the point that demolition is the only solution.â€
Burton proposes forming public-private partnerships that would be extremely beneficial to our entire community, especially those neighborhoods where blighted properties are abundant.
“We do have a problem with blighted homes, but we also need to have a plan to address the condition of these properties before they become unsalvageable,†he contends. “We need to break the cycle of disrepair that leads to blight.â€
He will be having discussions with social service agencies, labor unions and companies in the next few weeks to lay the groundwork for a plan that best serves the residents of Evansville.
Burton’s campaign is based on teamwork, good public policy, and a focus on the future of Evansville.
