The Neighborhood Enhancement Program is a 90-day focused strategy addressing neighborhood quality of life issues in Kennedy Heights. The program is designed to jumpstart the community on the road to revitalization and redevelopment through a coordinated partnership between the City of Cincinnati and the Kennedy Heights community.

Beginning March 1, 2012 the City will deploy these new strategies whereby all City departments will be working co-operatively within the selected area of Kennedy Heights for a 90-day period. The goal is to enhance the quality of life, eliminate blight and increase safety in our neighborhood. We are contacting you on behalf of the City and as neighborhood leaders to join us to help and support this effort. You are invited to an informational meeting on Monday, February 27, 2012, 6:00 pm, at the Kennedy Heights Presbyterian Church, 6312 Kennedy Avenue, to learn more.

Beginning March 1, City inspectors will be going street-to-street within the Project Area noting the condition of each property, including peeling paint and litter, among other building maintenance and safety issues. If you own property that is littered or has tall grass, please keep the property clean and the grass cut for the good of the neighborhood and to avoid fines and citations. To help you comply with building and health code regulations, a list of housing programs with contacts and phone numbers is provided within. We encourage you to become involved in the Kennedy Heights Community Council dedicated to improving the quality of life in Kennedy Heights. It will take your cooperation and dedication, and the support of many agencies to make a real impact. We hope you'll join us!
