Appellants’ properties were subject to the City’s Housing Code enforcement
from 2002 to 2005. They received code enforcement orders that, in many cases, cited
between ten and twenty-five violations per property for conditions including rodent
infestation, missing dead-bolt locks, inadequate sanitation facilities, inadequate heat,
inoperable smoke detectors, broken or missing doors and screens, and broken or
missing guardrails or handrails. Several of Appellants’ properties were designated as
problem properties, subject to Code Compliance Certification, or, in a few cases, both.
As a result of the City’s Housing Code enforcement, Appellants suffered increased
maintenance costs, fees, condemnations, and were forced to sell properties in some
instances.
