(KLZA)-- The Falls City Council approved resolutions to abate nuisance properties at 1205 Harlan Street, 2009, 2010 and 2015 Stone Street when they met Monday night.

The resolution states the 1205 Harlan house is a menace to the public health or safety of the people of Falls City and may prove detrimental to children.

The properties on Stone Street are described as a menace to the public safety and listed complaints about an increase in the rodent population at surrounding homes, rubbish in the yards, overgrown grasses and weeds and use of enclosed trailers for storage.

Passage of the resolutions authorize the City Attorney's Office to bring a civil action to abate the nuisances.
