VISTA — The Vista City Council will hold a public hearing on Aug. 11 to consider declaring the former Burlington Coat Factory building on Sycamore Avenue a public nuisance due to its deteriorated condition. Not just as your representative, but as a homeowner, taxpayer, and father, and that is why I’m bringing this before the City Council. If the council declares the property a public nuisance and orders it to be abated, the city can legally require Charles Company to repair and improve the property. O’Donnell encouraged residents to attend the Aug. 11 City Council meeting at 5:30 p.m. at the Vista Civic Center, or to submit public comments virtually to [email protected]. “This is a critical step in the process to activate this space and rejuvenate the Sycamore & Shadowridge corridor,” O’Donnell said.
