(a) Chronic nuisance properties present health, safety, and welfare concerns to the City, and have a negative impact upon the quality of life, safety and health of the neighborhoods in which they are located. This chapter is enacted to remedy nuisance activities that occur throughout the City and affect citizens by providing a process for abatement.
(b) Chronic nuisance properties are a financial burden to the City due to the calls for service for nuisance activities that occur repeatedly on these properties. This chapter is a means to lessen that burden and hold accountable those persons responsible for such properties.
