Kimberly Scott of the Nuisance Abatement Division explained that the funds being appropriated are generated from nuisance abatement liens, code violation fines, and interest earnings on those revenues.  They are deposited into the nuisance abatement trust fund, then need to be appropri-ated out of that fund to pay for nuisance abatement contractor work.  In answer to a question about whether the funds could be expended in the areas in which they were collected, Ms. Scott indicated that the funds are not tracked geographically in that way.  The list of properties to be remediated with the funds is constantly changing as projects are added and completed.  She stated that Property Safety has 6 zones and that the supervisor in each zone directs street-by-street inspections in different neighborhoods each month for targeted enforcement and cleanup.  Council Member Lee suggested that Property Safety target high crime neighborhoods for these enforcement efforts.
