[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The corner of Old Keene Mill and Backlick Roads is a mess. On the west side are two abandoned buildings long neglected by their owner, a DC-based LLC. On the east side are a cluster of now vacant commercial buildings bought by a developer (Schupp) that promised a new hotel five years ago, but appears incapable of delivering. These properties just sit and rot more and more each day. [b]It’s past time for the county to tell these owners to get off their butts and do something.[/b] Redevelop them. Demolish them. Sell them to someone else who’s more willing and/or competent to revitalize them. The Springfield CBD has made some positive strides recently and it’s on a good path for future growth. Inaction around these eyesores is inexcusable.[/quote] Which power is the county supposed to use to do this?[/quote]
