City of Joliet Area Sports Hall of Fame Committee issued the following announcement on April 24.
To ensure Joliet’s commercial corridors and entryways are attractive and properly maintained, the City is continuing the commercial corridor inspection program with the mutual cooperation of the City’s business owners. The inspections will focus upon exterior conditions of properties including buildings, signs, parking lots, landscaping, and outside housekeeping. As in previous years, the goal of the program is to work with business owners in complying with City Codes and assist them in maintaining an attractive commercial area that will encourage patronage.
Since numerous commercial corridors exist in the City, inspections will be conducted one corridor at a time to allow for a comprehensive approach to improving the City. Subsequent corridor inspections will be announced as they are determined. Jefferson Street between Raynor and Larkin will be the first corridor to be inspected starting the last week of April and going into May.
Letters have been sent to all property owners within the corridor announcing the inspection program, including notes of several key issues the City will inspect. By announcing the program in advance, the City seeks to have owners prepare for the visit and become a partner in the process of maintaining the overall attractiveness of our business corridors.
