Neighborhood Notes |

Report Vacant Properties
Vacant and blighted buildings are a
public nuisance in all senses. The victims
are not only the neighbors but the entire
community.
Have you noticed empty buildings that
should be added to the City's "nuisance" list?
Call Community Council (531-4041)
and record the address when you hear
the beep. KHCC will pass your message
on to the Housing
Inspector.
