The Atlanta Housing Authority will obtain a list of structures
which have met Code Enforcement standards of the City of Atlanta
Building Department in recent years. Owners whose properties
currently meet these standards will have the option of either
taking advantage of possible grants or loans under the Atlanta
Housing Authority rehabilitation program to meet project
standards or continuing to maintain structures in compliance
with the City Housing Code. ‘



In rehabilitation areas other than those of current year action
areas, the City Building Department will participate on a
complaint investigation basis only. New enforcement cases will
be undertaken in accordance with Department personnel capability
and on a full code compliance basis.

The Atlanta Housing Authority is fully responsible for demolition
activities in NDP current year clearance action areas. When
emergency situations occur necessitating prompt action on particular

the Building Department will become involved only on a compliant
basis to effect full code compliance with the exception that
generally no installation of additional equipment will be required.
