CHAMPAIGN – The city has given the owners of a fire-damaged building at 215 N. Neil St. and the owners of the former Metropolitan Building, which was destroyed in a Nov. 7 blaze, notices of the city's intent to go to court, if necessary, to force repair or demolition of the sites.

City officials said the notices, mailed Wednesday, give the city the right to go to court to seek demolition or repair orders after a period of 15 days.
