§4763. Decision of parish or municipal governing authority; order to demolish or repair
A. After the hearing, if, in the opinion of the parish or municipal governing authority the facts justify it, an order shall be entered condemning the building and ordering that it be demolished or removed within a certain delay. If repairs will correct the dilapidated, dangerous, or unsafe condition, the parish or municipal governing authority may grant the owner the option of making such repairs, but in such a case the general nature or extent of the repairs to be made, the time thereof, and the defects to be corrected shall be specified in the decision of the governing body.
B. The decision and order of the parish or municipal governing authority shall be in writing and shall be final unless appealed from within five days as hereinafter provided.
C.(1) The parish or municipal governing authority shall keep and maintain a list of condemned properties throughout the parish or municipality.
(a)All properties shall be identified by tax block and lot number, the name of the owner of record, if known, and the street address of the lot.
(b)The condemned property list shall be regularly updated and accessible to the public online through a parish or municipal website or third-party website.
(2)Once the decision and order of the parish or municipal governing authority is final as provided in this Section, the property shall be added to the list of condemned properties throughout the parish or municipality.
(3)The parish or municipal governing authority shall remove any property from the list of condemned properties once it has been determined that the property is no longer condemned as determined by the parish or municipal governing authority that determined the property as condemned.
(4)The intent of this Subsection is to make additional information regarding condemned property available to the public and the press.
