Jacobson Director of Public Safety City of New Brighton 803 Old Highway 8 NW New Brighton, MN 55112 Mr. Jacobson, As requested and required, we are submitting the following information for your review. The following Mitigation Plan outlines the steps we are taking to restructure these properties so that they will be a standard or "better than standard" example of a rental location. We have concentrated our efforts in the following two (2) areas: I. Residential Screening and Conduct 2. Physical Improvements and Grounds Management 0 Residential Screening and Conduct • All applicants aged at least 18, must submit an application, Photo ID, and non- refundable deposit for background check at time of submitting their application. This applies to all applicants regardless of marital status. • Criminal background and Rental History are both checked for offenses or nonpayment, which are indicators of adverse behavior. • All applicants are required to have deposit for security. • Interview with applicant includes job history and current employment status. • All residents are required to review and initial property rules at time of lease signing. These cover violations of any and all lease provisions or additional. Conduct requirements that are outlined in our rental agreement. • We continue working with local authorities on issues with problem tenants and have significantly reduced the number of tenant violations and issues. Current Implementations • Regular upkeep of housekeeping, including landscape and common areas by hiring an attendant for each building. • Lawn care and snow removal are completed on a regular basis. • Daily physical inspection of all areas of Common Areas in order to keep updated on any physical damage which could cause the buildings to become an "eyesore" in the community
