Archival Tax Foreclosures in Detroit, 2002 - 2013 (from Property Information)

Shared by noah_D3 on December 16, 2014. updated over 2 years ago.
<p>Wayne County follows a relatively fixed process for initiating tax foreclosures. The county serves notice to any parcel that is more than three years delinquent on property tax payments, and these properties are then sold to the highest bidder in two auctions - one in early September, and one in October. While there have been some exceptions to this schedule (a June 2012 auction of unsold foremost among them), properties listed in the September tax auction represent a strong proxy for identifying the universe of tax-foreclosed properties.</p> <p>This file identifies parcels within the City of Detroit that were listed in the September Wayne County tax foreclosure auction in any year from 2002 through 2013. It contains information on year of foreclosure, as well as the total number of times that a property has been subject to tax foreclosure. The work to produce this dataset was conducted in September 2013, and the data were subsequently integrated into the Motor City Mapping project.</p> <p>The purpose of this file is to help provide information on how Detroit's tax foreclosure crisis has developed over time, enabling community members and decision-makers to make more informed decisions when developing strategies to combat this growing problem.</p> <p>Metadata associated with this file includes <a href="http://datadrivendetroit.org/web_ftp/motorcitymapping/Metadata/WCT_TaxForeclosures/ArchivalTaxForeclosure_Metadata_Final_12152014.xls" target="_blank">field description metadata</a> and a <a href="http://datadrivendetroit.org/web_ftp/motorcitymapping/Metadata/WCT_TaxForeclosures/ArchivalTaxForeclosures_Documentation_12152014_Final.pdf" target="_blank">narrative summary</a> detailing the creation of the dataset.

Vacant Structures by Census Block, Q4 2013 - Q4 2014 (from Data Driven Detroit Data Portal)

Shared by noah_D3 on March 25, 2015. updated 2 months ago.
<p>In January, 2014, Data Driven Detroit (D3) purchased a license of the Valassis Corporation's VNEF Plus database to receive quarterly updates of address-level vacancy data. Though the address-level data are restricted by confidentiality clauses, D3 processed and aggregated this database to the Census block-level to provide high-resolution tracking of structure vacancy in Detroit across time. The dataset contains data on the number and percent of vacant structures (with whether a parcel contains a structure identified by Motor City Mapping survey data) in each of the nearly 16,000 Census blocks in Detroit. The data span the timeframe from Q4 2013 through Q4 2014.</p> <p><a href="http://datadrivendetroit.org/web_ftp/motorcitymapping/Metadata/QuarterlyVacancy_BlockLevel/Metadata_BlockLevel_VacancyAggregations.xls" target="_blank">Field description metadata</a> and a <a href="http://datadrivendetroit.org/web_ftp/motorcitymapping/Metadata/QuarterlyVacancy_BlockLevel/Narrative_BlockLevel_VacancyAggregations_Final.pdf" target="_blank">narrative summary</a> providing further detail on the creation of the dataset are also available for download.</p>

NESHAP Notifications Tied To Demolition Activity, January 2009 to April 2015 (from Data Driven Detroit Data Portal)

Shared by noah_D3 on April 30, 2015. updated 2 months ago.
<p>NESHAP is a program of the United States Environmental Protection Agency that regulates hazardous air pollutants and ensures that construction and demolition activities are in compliance with federal regulations. As a part of this program, the State of Michigan Department of Environmental Quality (MDEQ) requires notification from all contractors conducting alterations (either rehabilitation or demolition) on structures that have the potential to contain a hazardous substance such as lead or asbestos, regardless of whether the structure is actually found to contain the hazardous material. Because of this requirement, NESHAP notifications are an excellent proxy for identifying structures that have been demolished.</p> <p>This dataset contains information on NESHAP notifications that have been identified as tied to demolition activity. The notifications date from 2009 through April, 2015, and have been sourced from the MDEQ's website as well as several tables obtained through a Freedom of Information Act request. The data contain information on the contractors for each demolition, the start and end date for the notification, and whether the property was surveyed as a residential structure in the 2009 Detroit Residential Parcel Survey.</p> <p>Metadata associated with this file includes <a href="http://datadrivendetroit.org/web_ftp/motorcitymapping/Metadata/NESHAP_2009_to_2014/NESHAP_Metadata_Final_04302015.xls" target="_blank">field description metadata</a> and a <a href="http://datadrivendetroit.org/web_ftp/motorcitymapping/Metadata/NESHAP_2009_to_2014/NESHAP_Documentation_Final_04302015.pdf" target="_blank">narrative summary</a> detailing the creation of the dataset.</p> <p>The work to produce this file fell under the Motor City Mapping project.
