Which is interesting. <br /> <br />Here is what might work: So the city removes the fine ceiling, cites them, and makes unpaid property fines a part of the property tax due. <br /> <br />After enough years of getting stood up for the payment, have a delinquent tax auction. <br /> <br />Norfolk Southern comes along, buys the bridge, and charges CSX a toll to use the bridge.
