Where does the “right” to “ live in a neighborhood free of blight” come from?
If there were such aright, the everyone would be obligated to prevent blight everywhere.
are you two years old? Seriously?
Look at her property in the news story, in the pic I posted above this post and in the various online aerial and street view photos.
Her house looks like crap and unkempt compared to any other yard in that neighborhood.
Yes, BTW, it is apparently a right to have blight removed. Witness the numerous lawsuits across the nation where cities, counties and even neighborhoods sued Banks for the condition their REO’s were being left in and what the effect was on their property values.
I know about it as we manage REO’s for banks and keep properties cleaned inside and out as well we maintain the property.
All it takes is one complaint from anyone in the neighborhood and we are out at the property within 24 hours to assess the complaint and remedy.
Banks are happy as the homes move faster off their books because they are in show able condition and the neighbors are happy because they don’t have this POS on their block looking abandoned.
