What was decided

Discussed concerns at the former Vibra Hospital property, including unauthorized entry, fires, overgrown vegetation, and deterioration. Discussed possible tools for problem properties, such as performance bonds and reviews of blighted-property ordinances. The Law Department agreed to research these options and review the property's legal and enforcement status, and a follow-up meeting was planned.
