NEW BUSINESS (cont.)
Review Abatement Procedure for Nuisance Properties
 The Mayor reviewed the process of managing the problem properties which cause
 neighborhood concerns and impact property value. This involves notifying owners, issuing fines,
 and obtaining court orders (if necessary) which allow the City to clean up properties. The
 cleanup costs (about $10,000 per incident) are billed to property owners and added to tax bills if
 unpaid; however, collection delay and risk exists. He is seeking direction on funding and policy
 for repeated nuisance abatement as there is a concern about unbudgeted expenses.
 Following discussion of the Committee, it was agreed that detailed discussions of individual
 cases would take place during Closed Sessions at Common Council meetings.
