The San Antonio Building Standards Board convened on August 7, 2025, to address significant safety concerns regarding a structure located at 2034 Lyon Street. The board discussed the building's violations of multiple city code provisions, specifically article 8 chapter 6, sections 1, 2, 5, 7, 8, 11, 15, 17, and 18. These violations classify the building as a dangerous structure, posing a threat to public health, safety, and welfare.
City staff presented evidence indicating that the building exhibits conditions of dilapidation and substandard living conditions, which could endanger the lives and safety of its occupants and the surrounding community. Given the severity of these issues, staff recommended the demolition of the structure to mitigate any potential risks.
The board's decision on this matter will be crucial in ensuring the safety of residents and maintaining community standards. Further discussions and actions regarding the demolition are expected in upcoming meetings.
