COVINGTON ASKED, "Is it unethical not to do it?"
He said that run-down houses were making the city unsightly.
"Number one, the city is not trying to bring smoke down on anybody," he said. "We're trying to protect the neighbor who wants to keep on his property."
"You're affecting the public itself. You're dropping the value of the property itself."
