The Affordable Housing Lien Forgiveness Pilot Program (LFPP) helps transform vacant properties into quality affordable housing. Through this program, eligible code enforcement liens may be forgiven when a new owner commits to:
The goal is simple: remove financial barriers, return vacant properties to productive use, and expand affordable housing opportunities. LMG’s Property Maintenance Code requires properties to be maintained in line with the LMCO § 156.00 for the benefit of neighborhood and resident health and safety. LMG’s Codes and Regulations team works diligently to inspect and, in some cases, maintain these properties. However, when property owners are unable or unwilling to maintain these properties, code violations often accumulate as liens can exceed the property’s value, making redevelopment financially unrealistic. LFPP addresses this gap by:
This program is intended for individuals or entities committed to redeveloping vacant properties into affordable housing.

Water Safety Tips for Kids
Memorial Day marks the start of summer and water fun! While swimming is a delightful pastime during the summer, it’s essential for everyone to prioritize water safety. Here are some tips on how children can stay safe in and around the water: Learn basic swimming and water safety skills Formal swimming lessons can reduce the risk of drowning. Children who have had swimming lessons still need close and constant supervision when in or around water. Learn more information on how to find swimming lessons in your area. Build fences that fully enclose pools Construct and use a four-sided fence that is at least 4 feet in height and fully encloses the pool. The fence should separate the pool from the house, with self-closing and self-latching gates. Remove all toys from the pool area that might attract children to the pool when the pool is not in use. Supervise closely Designate a responsible adult to supervise closely and constantly when children are in or near water (including bathtubs). You can assign a specific adult to supervise each child when they have access to water. Adults watching kids in or near water should avoid distracting activities like reading, using the phone, and consuming alcohol or drugs, because drowning happens quickly and quietly. Wear a life jacket Life jackets reduce the risk of drowning while boating for people of all ages and swimming abilities. Life jackets should be used by children for all activities while in and around natural water. Life jackets can also be used by weaker swimmers of all ages in and around natural water and swimming pools. Do not rely on air-filled or foam toys, as these are not safety devices. Learn CPR Your CPR skills could save someone's life in the time it takes for paramedics to arrive. Many organizations such as American Red Cross and American Heart Association offer CPR training courses, both online and in-person. Source: CDC Planning and Design
