[quote] ".... the city is trying to get in contact with the banks and vested owners to make necessary repairs to return properties to productive use." [unquote]
Umm-m-m...., presumably these properties (regardless of their current status) are listed on the city's tax rolls(?).
Ques #1: Where, and to whom, is the city sending the tax bills?
Ques #2: Who or what entity, is paying the taxes?
Ques #3: If the taxes are not being paid why isn't the city foreclosing on the properties and seizing them for unpaid taxes?
What am I missing here?
