The city of Dayton told Fletcher that they are not sure when the cleanup will start. Neighbors say it is long overdue. 'It looks like a mess,' said Jonetta Miller. 'Like you see people post it up there, like you see people dumping stuff up there.' Fletcher said it has been a long process since the fire in October. The city said communication had stalled between them and the owner, Husam Ali Safi. His attorney told News Center 7 that Safi was absent from their first court date on June 4 because he was visiting his ailing father. 'He submitted a request for continuance to the court. My client's absence in no way affected or slowed the pace of the cleanup,' Safi's attorney said. We will update this story. [SIGN UP: WHIO-TV Daily Headlines Newsletter]
