Fair point. Maybe I'm just not good at reading, though...I can't see how the city is benefiting financially from going after Jacquez. The article does suggest the possibility of cronyism -- the city is going after certain property owners to increase the value of properties owned by others who are either bribing city officials or friends of city officials -- but I don't see any legitimate revenue coming into the city because of actions against Jacquez versus going after legitimately vacated properties. In fact, it seems the city would be losing money (having to go to court and potentially pay settlements) by targeting people like him.
I don't know anything about anything in either politics and real estate, though.
