PUBLIC NUISANCES

The abatement of public nuisance structures deals with the identification of structures in the city that are not fit for habitation. The goal is to see the buildings rehabilitated or removed. Once identified as a public nuisance the structure is posted by an inspector and boarded for the purposes of security by a private contractor.

Complaints may be brought to the attention of the Division by phoning 283-4046.
