Reply to comment by 22TopShelf22 in How should Springfield address run-down, abandoned houses? Report recommends solutions by var23

I was thinking more along the line of condemning tons of houses that are currently housing people. But yes also that.

I’m all for regulation and making sure things are safe, but we need a plan of what to do on the way of getting there. It’s missing steps.

Isn’t the article specifically talking about abandoned properties, not properties with current occupants?

Edit: nvm, I didn’t get to the rental housing section near the end. I see what you mean.

Not at all. It’s talking about nuisance properties, and even utilized statistics about the percentage of them that are rental properties.

Yeah I didn’t get that far before replying. My bad. Should have known better.
