Problem Properties
On March 21, 2022 the City of Edmonton will be releasing a report about problem properties. If you have dealt with a property - either a derelict or burnt out house, active problem properties, problem businesses, and/or empty lots - that have created disruptions or chaos for you as a resident of our district.
Please consider writing a letter to council and other leaders in our community about the impact that problem properties have on your safety and wellbeing (and your family's if applicable). Council has the ability to change how problem properties are dealt with but they need to hear from us so they understand how serious and urgent this is.
We have included a sample letter. You are welcome to use this as a template but please do personalize it with your experiences.
