Raze orders

John L. Lerch, pro se, appeals an order upholding a raze order issued by the City of Green Bay. Lerch contends the circuit court erred because: (1) the City should have given him a list of the problems with his property and the repairs that needed to be done; (2) Wisconsin Stat. § 66.0413(1)(b)1.,[1] which authorizes the City to issue a raze order, does not apply to a property that is not being used as a dwelling; (3) there was insufficient evidence to establish that the cost of repairing the property would be unreasonable; and (4) the circuit court judge was biased. We reject Lerch’s arguments and affirm. This opinion will not be published.
