Town commissioners will hold public hearings Feb. 7 on two ordinances that would let Ocean Ridge collect payment for repairing or demolishing neglected properties.
The ordinances provide a means for commissioners to set up a special tax district and to assess property owners who haven’t corrected neglected properties or paid the town after it’s stepped in to correct the issues.
The number of foreclosed and neglected properties that have popped up in the wake of the housing market collapse led to the actions.
