Can Detroit Do This? Beef Up Property Compliace Codes/Penalties

[Gistok]

As Fnemecek has mentioned a lot of property is now in the hands of banks. And banks are doing a rather piss poor job of maintaining their empty properties.

Also in some of the better neighborhoods of Detroit investors have purchased properties and are renting them out. Renters often don't do well at maintaining the property they are renting... and sadly some of Detroits finer neighborhoods are starting to look rather seedy. I'm already seeing this in Cornerstone Village and East English Village on the far east side.

If the city doesn't act... the remaining middle class neighborhoods of Detroit are going to hell very quickly!!
