regulations/ordinances regarding blighted property. I was working with a client (who had a good heart, but, sadly, was alcoholic) who the County was threatening to come on to his property to clean up/abate his garbage because it was attracting rats. Have
you tried the local city or county?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
