New ordinance will demolish abandoned buildings in La Villa
· KRGV (NBC 5)
La Villa is set to demolish abandoned buildings as part of a new ordinance aimed at improving the city's appearance and safety. City Administrator Antonio Barco reported that seven properties have already been identified, primarily in the east and northeast areas. Local resident Maria Ramirez expressed concern over one of the vacant homes, which belonged to her grandmother and has been empty since 1994. The city plans to contact property owners for voluntary demolition participation, with costs limited to a city fee and trash container expenses. If owners refuse, legal action may follow.
