Property owner at 513 Avenue Y will be billed $7,986.56 to cover the city's cost for demolishing an unsafe building. The cost becomes a lien against the property.
Ensures police and fire vehicles have reliable lighting equipment to respond safely to emergencies. Equipment sourced through competitive bidding via state agreement.
Property owners will face tax liens if cleanup costs aren't paid. Addresses blight across multiple neighborhoods including East Lake, Dolomite, Roosevelt, and Fairview Park.
