The Genesee County Land Bank prioritizes property maintenance complaints by triage.

We prioritize complaints through a process called "triage."  By triaging complaints, we are able to take action on the following issues accordingly.  High priority issues are addressed first, followed by medium and low priority issues.  Please note issues under "No Action."  The Genesee County Land Bank does not take action on these types of issues; any complaints filed that are determined to be "No Action" items will be administratively closed.
