Special Bd. of Aldermen — 07/22/2019 Page 2
Ms. Kleiner
You would reset the clock sort to speak, so if we did the statistical update in 2022, we are actually a year
ahead of what would be required, right? We are actually required in 2023. You would be required to do
another one five years from 2022.
Alderman Tencza
So just a follow up and | think | am pretty sure | already know the answer to this. The State does not require us
to do a full list and measure, correct?
Ms. Kleiner
It does not.
Alderman Tencza
Which is why we probably haven’t done one since 1991. And then according to the State Standards, the
Statistical Revaluation that we just did is sufficient by DRA Standards?
Ms. Kleiner
Correct.
Alderman Laws
What is the protocol, so you make 2 or 3 attempts? What happens if on the third attempt you still can’t get into
the property?
Ms. Kleiner
So they try to obtain as much data as physically possible. It is a process that is quite similar to what our
assessors do. They leave tags, they follow up and they call. We will actually have staff that will follow-up and
make phone calls as well. But at that point, we use whatever data is available to us from looking at GIS and
looking at the property from the outside, looking at building permits, any building plans, any data that we have.
Alderman Klee
Yes, | have just a quick question. So when you are saying that they make two attempts and the third one what
you are going to. During these attempts will the homeowners know we are going to be coming into this
neighborhood during this period of time. Or is it just a knock on the door, “Hi we are here”.
Ms. Kleiner
So they are splitting the City into thirds and we will know what areas we are working on that they have boots on
the ground sort to speak. We can certainly post that and let people know if that is helpful to residents. | would
think it is, | would want to know.
Alderman Klee
Yeah if that’s at all possible just to give people a heads up because we know what happens with utilities,
knock, knock on your door and it is not real. So just so that the residents know that these people, so we know
what kind of ID’s they are going to have and so on. | think that is really important for the safety of our
residents. Thank you.
