ACLU Views the City’s New “Nuisance Property” Law As Unfair. But Pete Holmes Remains Silent
Tuesday, Dec. 1 2009 @ 8:30AM
City council member Tim Burgess had a dream that was a revamped nuisance property ordinance. In it, the current legislation was repealed, making way for the new. The definition of “nuisance” was narrowed to include specific criminal acts like prostitution and drug sales. And the city’s nuisance abatement process was streamlined to make it easier for city officials to target property owners who ignore them. Also, dogs and cats began living together (not really).
That dream, minus that last bit, became a reality yesterday after the City Council voted unanimously to make Burgess’ new ordinance law.
The move reflects a growing concern over the city’s chronic nuisance properties and the folks who own them.
