During a recent government meeting, officials addressed significant safety concerns regarding two properties in Knoxville, Tennessee. The first property, located at 2905 Washington Pike, was deemed out of compliance with city codes and classified as an \"attractive nuisance.\" Officials ordered the owner to secure and repair the structure within 120 days, warning that failure to comply could result in the property being marked unfit for human habitation.

The discussion highlighted the need for immediate action to ensure the safety of the property, which was described as needing \"a little TLC.\" Specific issues included the need for boarding up the structure and addressing safety hazards on the back deck, such as installing guardrails.

The second property, at 618 Hollywood Road, was previously inspected and found to be heavily dilapidated. The inspection revealed significant damage, including a compromised roof, broken doors and windows, and inadequate support for porches. Officials expressed concern that the structural integrity of the building was severely compromised, with leaning posts and a roof that could potentially collapse.

The meeting underscored the urgency of addressing these properties to prevent further deterioration and ensure public safety. Officials encouraged further discussions among stakeholders to explore solutions for these hazardous structures.
