An Act amending Title 53 (Municipalities Generally) of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes, in neighborhood blight reclamation and revitalization, providing for Municipal Codes Enforcement Grant Program and municipal neighborhood mitigation funds and for county property maintenance code; and imposing penalties.

SB 214 establishes a Municipal Codes Enforcement Grant Program to help municipalities without existing code enforcement programs hire staff and create new programs, with grants up to $100,000 awarded competitively based on financial need and property conditions. It also creates Municipal Neighborhood Mitigation Funds, funded by penalties for serious property violations (e.g., unsafe structures), which must be used for cleanup, repairs, or demolition of blighted properties. Municipalities must match grant funds and follow specific guidelines, while penalties for repeated violations range from $25 to $1,000. The bill additionally allows counties to adopt property maintenance codes through ordinances, with requirements for public notice and accessibility.
