§ 8-201 FINDINGS OF GOVERNING BODY.
   The governing body finds that junked, wrecked, dismantled, inoperative or abandoned vehicles affect the health, safety and general welfare of citizens of the city because they:
   (a)   Serve as a breeding ground for flies, mosquitoes, rats and other insects and rodents;
   (b)   Are a danger to persons, particularly children, because of broken glass, sharp metal protrusions, insecure mounting on blocks, jacks or other supports;
   (c)   Are a ready source of fire and explosion;
   (d)   Encourage pilfering and theft;
   (e)   Constitute a blighting influence upon the area in which they are located; and
   (f)   Constitute a fire hazard because they frequently block access for fire equipment to adjacent buildings and structures.
