Everyone know that scrapping is a huge problem in the city. When a house goes from vacant and intact to vacant and destroyed by scrappers, it loses most of its value and rapidly becomes yet another eyesore in the community. It's even worse when it happens to major buildings downtown with no apparent repercussions. Why does the city not place a higher priority on stopping this? What can be done? It's sad that vacant houses/buildings have to be boarded up quickly or else they become targets for these vermin. This makes the quality of life for all Detroiters poorer.
