A significant decision was made during the recent San Antonio Construction Standards Board meeting, where the demolition of two properties was approved due to public safety concerns. The first property, located at 3 Preston Avenue, is set for demolition after the owner, Resto Homes, confirmed their readiness to proceed. They emphasized their familiarity with the demolition process and assured that all necessary permits would be obtained promptly.

The board discussed the timeline for the demolition, noting that while the permit review may take a few days, the owner is prepared to schedule the demolition within a week. The owner also highlighted the need to disconnect all services before beginning the demolition.

In a related matter, the board addressed another property at 8221 Street, which was deemed a public nuisance under municipal code. The board unanimously voted to demolish this property within 30 days, ensuring that debris and waste would be cleared afterward.

The meeting concluded with a strong consensus among board members, reflecting a commitment to maintaining public safety and upholding city codes. The swift actions taken during this meeting underscore the city's proactive approach to addressing hazardous structures in the community.
