Most of the time (working to get a property repaired or torn down) takes about a year. It depends on the owner. Myrtle is an extreme case. |
The conditions of the home, the time the city spent working to resolve the issues, and the severity of the violations are all things that earned these properties a spot on the list. We finally determined the worst ones. Sure there are more but we'll tackle a few each time. |
We started the list with the hope that by making the properties public, owners would step up to bat. |
