Me definition of substandard wits need in Table I is derived free the City of Bangor's Housing Code. This code is modeled after the nationally -recognized Building Officials and Code Administrators (BOCA) Housing Code. Thus, a unit classified in Table I as being substandard has. at least one or more violations of the BOCA Housing Code; these violations relate to the folloalng parts of the structure: foundation, roof, heating equipment electrical system, plumbing system, floors,, walls, ceilings, me of egress, chimney, exterior covering, stairs, porches, cooking equipment, toilet facilities, feel storage, refuse disposal, windows, doors, rodent infestation and other elements of the structure. 2. Definition of "suitable for rehabilitation" used. Tae units listed in Table I as being suitable for rehabilitation are all classified as being substandard under the BOCA code; these units have at least five (5) or more minor code violations (i.e., no second means of egress, inadequate number of electrical outlets, etc.), o there is at least one (1) or more major case violation (i.e., deteriorated foundation, no heating system, etc.). In addition, the violation or combination of violation must be economically and structurally feasible to Correct in order for the units to be considered suitable for rehabilitation. 3. Data sources and methods used. The basic data source for the Survey of Housing Conditions has been the U. S. Bureau of the Census.In 197% the city of Bangor arranged for the Bureau of the Census to undertake a Special Census which provided aount of occupied and vacant bousi� units in the City. The estimate of units in Table I Sas up -dated the 1975 Special Census data by determining a ret gain in housing units; the City Cede Enforcement Department records provided infor- mation pertaining to heading starts and demolitions to obtain this net gain. From this information, it may be seen that since 1970 occupied housing units have increased by 1 233 units and vacant unite have decreased by 185 units producing a net gain of 1,046 housing units; of these 1,048 units added to the housing stock; 786 are multi- family (renter) units, and 262 are single-family (owner) units. The vacancrate of 5% was determined by the Special Census and, Judging from the difficulty i securing vacant units under the City's Community Development relocation program and under the Section 8 Existing Housing program, it is estimeted that the vacaney rate is remaining approximately constant. In addition to the Special Census, the City Code Enforcement Department has systematically inspected 8,474, or acre then 70%, of the housing wits in the City. This survey, havolving the inspection of nearly all wits in the older neighborhoods (which are located between the Penooecot River and Interstate 95), - classified wits according to standard or substandard condition (in violation of the BOLA code); the substandard units were further subdivided according to those units: (a) with minor code violation - 704, of all substandmrrd units, (b) suitable - for rehabilitation - 24%, and (c) beyond the point of feasible rehabilitation and requiring clearance - 6%. 'Therefore, the units listed in Table I as being sub- standard include all of the units in these subdivisions. To obtain the estimate of "substandard" azul "suitable for rehabilitation" for those units (30% of the total .housing stock) not inspected by the Code Enforce- ment Department, a projection of the code violation rate for these units was made.
