Savannah City Council plans to condemn six blighted properties in Cuyler-Brownville using eminent domain, aiming to transform them into affordable housing. The neighborhood has seen high crime rates and code violations, straining city resources. The properties will be purchased in September 2023, with new homes expected by 2027. The Land Bank Authority will manage the properties, offering heirs a chance to buy before repairs are funded with affordable housing money. The move is aimed at improving the neighborhood and deterring blight contributors.
