WHEREAS, a duly noticed public hearing before the City
Council was held on July 6, 1993, at which time the owner of
the property was given the opportunity to appear and present
evidence, require sworn testimony and cross-examine witnesses
to present reasons why the City Council should not find that
the violations and conditions existing on the subject
property caused the premises to be unsafe and substandard and
constitute a public nuisance, and why abatement, repair and
corrections should not be required.

~ The City Council finds that the violations
identified above constitute conditions requiring a
declaration that the premises are unsafe and substandard.
