Description
Congrats, Hartford... Using a new anti-blight ordinance that went into effect last July, the city of Hartford announced that it has foreclosed and plans to demolish an old warehouse with a sagging roof at 42 Francis Ave.
The new ordinance allowed Hartford to obtain the property through strict foreclosure. On or about Nov. 6, 2008, citations and regulation violations of $400 per day from various city departments began to accumulate for Westall Company LLC. By the time the city acquired the property, the company owed $56,000.
Once the lot is cleared, the property could go up for public auction or otherwise be available for development. That's great news for the neighborhood.
