Jefferson City Councilman Scott Spencer says abandoned buildings continue to be a public safety issue in the city, particularly along East Capitol Avenue. Councilman Spencer joined us live on “Wake Up Mid-Missouri”, noting Jefferson City Police and Fire crews have to go into the homes for checks at times. He says the blight is also embarrassing and that there are people who want to purchase those properties and rehabilitate them. Councilman Spencer also tells listeners that the budget is another big issue in Jefferson City:
