because so much of the housing stock is seriously dilapidated.
Mr. Rice commented that in a recent Department survey, 64,vacant,
abandoned homes now exist in the CDBG target area. He •further

homesteading units, if sound enough, or be used for farmworker
housing, or other special needs. Mr. Stouder stated that in 1975,
26 vacant, abandoned units in the target, area were identified.
Mr. Shampine.interjected that of ,those 26, only 6 -8 units remain.

HOUSING TOUR NARRATIVE
OVERVIEW
The housing tour provides a brief look at typical problems of many city
neighborhoods. This tour is not intended to identify "the worst" housing units
or neighborhoods. Rather, we hope to discuss in general the issues,
ramifications and some solutions to neighborhood problems.
Ten specific areas have been identified along the route of the housing tour
which typify some of these neighborhood issues. A brief statement regarding
each of these areas is included in this narrative providing a listing of
specific properties and /or improvements which have been funded under the
Community Development Block Grant Program. The attached map illustrate each of
these areas.
Study Area 1
This neighborhood is zoned CBDS, bounded to the north and south by M -1. Many
old foundations exist in the area, as a reminder of this old neighborhood.
However, land use changes adjacent to this area are substantial. One industrial
use exists in the neighborhood. Generally the street conditions are poor,
although sidewalks and curbs exist along most streets. The homes have
individual septic tanks due to the cost of bringing in a sewer line. Adjacent
to this area is the Chalet Nursing Home and Morningview Apartments (301 N. 10th
St.), owned by the Yakima Housing Authority.
Properties to Note:

Study Area 2
This neighborhood is zoned R -2, residential. The area consists of many
owner /occupied, single family homes. The age of the housing stock in this area
is quite old compared to the rest of the city, with many rental properties.
This neighborhood is substantially intact with good public improvements but
deteriorating housing stock.
Properties to Note:
403 N. 6th St. -CDBG Single - Family Rehab Project
710 N. 6th St. -CDBG Single - Family Rehab Project

exists quite an amount of debris in many yards and alleys.

Study Area 4
This neighborhood is zoned R -3. Many multiple- family rental properties exist
directly adjacent to single - family homes without buffering or transitional open
spaces. The area appears to be converting toward a higher density use, while
single- family properties deteriorate.
Study Area 5
This area included R -3, CBDS and CBD zoning. Of note in this area is Pioneer
Plaza, a two - phased development by the Yakima Housing Authority for farm worker
housing. These units are rented year -round to permanent farm workers.

Study Area 6
Walnut Avenue provides the boundary between the CBD to the north and R -2, or R -3
to the south. Since Walnut Avenue is heavily traveled, this area requires
sensitive treatment to ensure compatibility and quality of life for surrounding
multi- family rental properties.
Study Area 7
To the east of South 6th Street, R -1 zoning exists and many properties and
owner- occupied, and to the west the neighborhood is zoned R -2 where many rentals
exist. South 6th Street serves as an arterial route and receives fairly high
traffic loads.
