Housing

The Village of Steger is facing significant challenges when it comes to housing cleanliness. To recover this sector, we must reimagine and reform the Code Enforcement Department.

• Establish clear communication channels to keep residents informed of changes, processes, and upgrades regarding housing and real estate.

• Develop programs that support the rehabilitation of existing homes. This could include partnerships with non-profit organizations that specialize in home restorations, making it financially accessible for the current homeowners.

• These actions improve housing conditions often correlate with better public safety and enhanced education outcomes for our local schools.

• Reinventing the Code Enforcement will have wide-ranging benefits. A strong housing market can attract new residents, spur economic growth and improve public services.
