Special Meeting on Millville Gardens



Last night the Millvlle City Commission held a special meeting concerning Millville Gardens. This complex has been an eye-sore and crime-ridden place for years. As the Daily Journal said

"City officials formally asked commissioners to declare the West Foundry Street complex a "nuisance property" and demolish six of the property's 13 buildings at a special meeting Monday. The six structures encompass 48 of the complex's 102 units. The city filed its claim under the 2004 state Abandoned Property Rehabilitation Act. which allows municipalities to deem a property a "nuisance" if it's dilapidated; plays a role in crime, drug or gang activity; and negatively impacts neighboring property values. The city has cited the complex numerous times and taken the owners to Municipal Court".

The judical hearing was postponed till Monday April 21st at 5:30. Go to http://www.youtube.com/user/mkrull1 tomorrow
