A
Message from CPS Energy CEO, Paula Gold-Williams

People +
Place = Vacant Building Program (Virtual Conversation)
|
|
|
|
The Office of Historic Preservation is hosting a
series of virtual conversations to educate San Antonio property
owners about the potential pitfalls that can lead to vacancy. The
first conversation is entitled People + Place = Vacant
Building Program and features an in-depth look at the
people-centered approach of the Vacant Building Program (VBP).
The discussion happens on Thursday, November 5th at 5:00pm and
registration information can be found at http://tiny.cc/vpbwebex.
This in-depth conversation will cover the purpose of
the program, where it applies, how it is structured, and how it
is executed. Additionally, the discussion will communicate the
enforcement actions associated with non-compliance and advice for
owners on how to stay in compliance. Attendees are encouraged to
submit questions before and during the session for VBP staff to
address.
The VBP covers nearly 25% of San Antonio and works
in support of other previously-established areas like
Neighborhood Conservation Districts and City-initiated Tax
Increment Reinvestment Zones—the VBP is not only in historic
districts.
The main audience is individuals that are owners of
single-family properties—whether vacant or occupied. We want
vacant property owners to understand their obligation under the
program, how to be exempt from the program, and neighbors of
vacant properties to understand the holistic approach we take and
our goal of helping to strengthen San Antonio neighborhoods.

These neighbors came together and used Nextdoor for
good! Neighbors from Wilshire Terrace, Oak Park Northwood, East
Terrell Hills and more came together to collect garbage between
Harry Wurzbach and Eisenhauer and Corrine - clearing parts of
both District 10 and District 2 - over the last six weeks. All
told they've put in over fifty hours of work and collected one
hundred twenty bags of garbage. Thank you, neighbors!
