The San Antonio Construction Standards Board convened on May 1, 2025, to address several pressing issues regarding public nuisances and property violations. The meeting began with a focus on two specific properties deemed public nuisances, located at 510 Brookhew Drive and 110 Brookview Drive.
The first item on the agenda involved the property at 510 Brookhew Drive, which was identified as a public nuisance that could not be repaired at this time. The board referenced multiple sections of the municipal code, specifically Section 6, Subsections 1, 2, 5, 8, 11, 12, 15, 17, and 18, outlining the violations. The board unanimously voted to demolish the property within 30 days, ensuring that all debris would be removed and the site cleaned.
Following this, the board addressed the property at 110 Brookview Drive, which was similarly classified as a public nuisance. The same sections of the municipal code were cited, and the board again voted for demolition within 30 days, with a motion passing 6-0. This decision included cutting off all services to the property.
After these discussions, the board took a brief recess before moving on to the next case. Jaime Jasso from the San Antonio Dangerous Press Department presented a property located at 136 Enrique Street. This property was being reviewed for compliance with municipal codes, marking its first appearance before the board. The owner’s representative was present to discuss the property, and the committee proceeded with the review.
The meeting highlighted the board's commitment to addressing public safety concerns through the enforcement of building codes and regulations. The swift actions taken against the identified properties reflect ongoing efforts to maintain community standards and ensure public health and safety in San Antonio.
