Inasmuch as the conditions outlined above constitute a public
hazard and contribute to a blighting effect for the neighborhood and
the owner has made r�o attempt to satisfactorily repair the damage
despite our warnings, 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.
