Description

When a property is chronically blighted, there aren't any easy solutions. Remedies need to be balanced between the needs of surrounding neighbors and those of the property owners. And many times, owners can't be located at all or don't have the resources or ability to fix the property up. That's when government, nonprofits, and other partners need to get creative. 


In this show, attorney Vincent Sawyer from The Works CDC visits Memphis Metropolis to explain the entities, processes, and legal tools - such as receivership - that often come into play in bringing blighted properties back into useful life.
