(a) Whenever there is reason to believe such a common nuisance is kept or maintained or exists in any city, a circuit court may enjoin permanently the person conducting or maintaining the nuisance and the owner, lessee, or agent of the building or place in or upon which the nuisance exists from directly or indirectly maintaining or permitting the nuisance.
