rehabilitation or conservation within the meaning of Section 66.1333, Wisconsin
Statutes;
. Property that has been vacant for the last 7 years does not exceed 25% of the area of

. The redevelopment of the area will have a significant positive impact on the value of
all real property in the District and is in keeping with the goals and objectives of the

all existing districts within the city does not exceed 12 percent of the total equalized
