This property is not in an area with which the Housing and Rede- velopment Authority is concerned. The subject property has been boarded up by the city since May 24, 1972. The Fire Department is quite concerned regarding these buildings and consider them hazardous as vandals break into them creating potential fire hazards. It appears that the owners have abandon�hese buildings. Inasmuch as the physical damage, dilapidated and unsanitary con- ditions outlined above, and the fact that the buildings appear a- bandoned, constitute a public hazard and the owner has made no attempt to satisfactorily repair the damage despite our warnings, and the continued vacant and boarded up condition contributes a blighting influence on the neighborhood, it is the recommendation of this bureau that this matter be referred to the City Attorney's office for razing and removal through District Court proceedings.
