HB 804 -- Abatement of Nuisance

Co-Sponsors:  McKenna, Wagner, Abel, Selby, Hollingsworth,
Johnson (90)

This bill allows Greene County and, depending on the 2000 United
States census figures, Jefferson County to enact ordinances to
reduce conditions on property which constitute a public
nuisance.  The ordinances may state that if the owner does not
remove the nuisance within 7 days of notice, the building
commissioner may have the condition eliminated.  Cost will be
certified to the officer in charge of finance and considered
added to the annual real estate tax bill for that property as a
personal debt of the owner.
