I noticed that there were a number of Citations to be issued for Demolition by Neglect.
They are as follows:
*1027 9th Street*
This house is one house away from Magazine Street.
*608 Sixth Street*
This very small house looks adandoned.
*2131 Chippewa Street*
This is located acroos from a School and a Church.
*The types of deficiencies identified as “Demolition by Neglect” include any structural deficiency or a deficiency in a building part which left unrepaired could lead to deterioration of the building’s structural frame. A building is also identified as “Demolition by Neglect” if it is open to entry by vandals or vagrants*.

MANY PEOPLE ARE QUICK TO CRITICIZE. THE OWNERS OF CHIPPEWA ST ALSO OWN THE BRICK SYNAGOGUE IN THE REAR. HE SAVED THE BRICKS BUT LOOKS AS IF HE’S GONNA MAKE SOME MORE PARKING. MAYBE YOU GUYS NEED TO CRITICIZE MORE QUICKLY TO SAVE THIS DOUBLE. MAYBE PEOPLE NEED TO THINK OF WHAT TO FIGHT FOR. SUPPOSE THIS OWNER DID NOT BUY THE SYNAGOGUE PROPERTY BECAUSE HE COULDN’T GET ENOUGH LAND AROUND IT FOR PARKING TO SATISFY THE BUILDING CODES AND THE BRICK BUILDING WERE ALLOWED TO COLLAPSE! REMEMBER THE LAST BIG PILE OF BRICKS TO COME DOWN ON COLISEUM SQUARE?
