As <br /> most of the land in Mounds View is developed, it is unlikely that new housing <br /> development will be substantial in the coming years to meet the need of new residents <br /> for energy efficient homes. <br /> Each year, the majority of the housing stock will continue to age, thereby posing <br /> potential problems of housing decay and neighborhood blight. <br /> Developing mechanisms to provide funds for rehabilitation programs is essential to a <br /> healthy and prosperous community. The City of Mounds View is committed to the <br /> following action steps in the coming years which will address this growing concern. <br /> • Prepare comprehensive city-wide housing stock analysis for single and multi- <br /> family housing. <br /> • Pursue Ramsey County Community Development Block Grant (CDGB) programs <br /> for possible rehabilitation funding. <br /> • Implement a housing redevelopment/rehabilitation program and utilization of <br /> enterprise program. <br /> • Improve process by which to regulate manufactured home districts. <br /> • Explore the creation of an Economic Development Authority (EDA) to explore the <br /> economic development tools by which to take a proactive role in housing <br /> rehabilitation. <br /> PRELIMINARY DRAFT - DATED: MARCH 25, 1993 <br />
