JOLIET, IL - The City of Joliet's Neighborhood Services Division has spotted seven more residential properties around the city of Joliet that are in such poor condition that the City Council has agreed to declare these properties as public nuisances. The City Council's action last week gives the city leverage to move forward with legal action to have these blighted properties torn down. After all, these structures are unsightly and look horrible. Don't you agree?
