MUNICIPAL MINUTES, CITY OF PICAYUNE
CODES AND ORDINANCESHOUSING COPE COMPLIANCE PROGRAM
An examination of housing conditions in the City of Picayune necessitates the inauguration of the fol-
lowing Housing Code Compliance Program:
The City has never adopted a compliance program, but within the last two years have brought twenty-three
structures into compliance without the aid of a compliance program. The remaining structures will be brought into
compliance under this proposed seven year program.
Step 1:
The field survey lists a total of 2,981 dwelling units within the City of Picayune. Of those units, 1,687 are
considered sound, 616 deteriorating, 678 dilapidated. The majority of the substandard dwelling units are found
in the older sections of the city.
The first step in the Program involves strict enforcemtn of the Housing Code on all structures as they become
vacant, with no utilities being provided until the structure has been brought up to standard. Those units that
are not considered as being economically feasible to repair will be eliminated by demolition. In addition, permits
will hot be issued for repair, remodeling, renovation, or additions prior to the building first being inspected to
ascertain that the work to be accomplished will bring the dwelling unit up to the Housing Code Standards.
Step 2:
This phase of the Program involves an educational program with participation of the Citizens Advisory Committee
and other local organizations. It is the intent of this step to bring substandard structures up to standards
through citizen awareness in the implementation of the provisions of the Housing Code.
Step 3:
The City has been delineated into neighborhoods for inspection and compliance as indicated on a map of the City.
Enforcement of the Housing Code will start in Neighborhood Number One, Priority 1, June 1, 1968. The enforcement
program will involve inspections in the neighborhoods as indicated in order of'priority as follows:

ORDER FOR SALE OF TAX FORFEITED LAND
WHEREAS, the City of Picayune, at a tax sale held in the City of Picayune, according to law, became the
purchaser of a tract of land within said City of Picayune School District, and
WHEREAS, the owner of said land did not redeem the land from said sale within the time allowed by law,
so that the title thereto matured and that the Tax Collector of the City of Picayune delivered a deed of conveyance
conveying the title of said land to said City, and
WHEREAS, MRS. ELAINE F. HALL has offered to the City of Picayune the sum of Twenty Two and Ninety Eight/
100 Dollars ($22.98) for said land, which said sum represents the fair market value of a tax title to said City,
and
NOW, THEREFORE, Be It Ordered by the Mayor and Council of said City of Picayune, Mississippi that the
Mayor and City Clerk be, and they are hereby authorized, empowered and directed to execute a deed of conveyance
conveying to MRS. ELAINE F. HALL such title as the City of Picayune has to said land, upon payment of the sum of
$22.98 as purchase price therefor. Said property described as follows: .60 Acres, more or less, in D. Burnett
Claim #7, Section 7, Township 7 South, Range 17 West in Pearl River County, Mississippi.
The foregoing order was introduced by Councilman H. V. Carr, seconded by F. G. Macdonald, Jr., and
unanimously carried at a regular meeting of the Mayor and Council of the City of Picayune, Pearl River County,
Mississippi, on the 1st day of October, 1968.
PETITION TO BE TAKEN OUT OF CITY DENIED
Now comes on for consideration a petition filed with the City Clerk August 30, 1968 from a group of
citizens living on East Canal Street requesting that all that land area abutting on East Canal Street lying East
of Interstate 59 be de-annexed or taken out of the city limits. After due consideration and a thorough examination
of said area, it was found that all municipal services have been extended to said area at considerable cost to the
City of Picayune; that in the opinion of this Mayor and Council it would be unfair to the other areas of the City
and would set a precedent for others to follow; that said area should be governed by all of the codes and ordinance:
of the City of Picayune including the City Planning Programs and Urban Renewal Project; and that all in all it •
would be to the best interest of all the citizens of the City of Picayune to deny said petition.
The part of said petition that relates to the school bus must be denied because the City has no legal
authority to operate a school bus. In the discussion thereof, however, it was pointed out that the City would
welcome an application from any responsible person or group of persons who might be interested in a franchise to
operate a public bus line.
Therefore, upon motion of H. H. Pepper, seconded by F. G. Macdonald, Jr., and unanimously carried, it
is ordered that said request for de-annexation be hereby denied.

Councilman R. E. Hobgood, seconded by H. H. Pepper, and unanimously carried directing the City Manager to take
the necessary steps to cause these people not connected to the sewer line to comply with the ordinance as
recommended in said petition.
ORDER TO RECESS

seconded by H. H. Pepper, it is ordered that this Mayor and Council do now rise in recess until 9:00 A. M.,
