San Antonio's Building Standards Board has recommended the demolition of two structures located at 1412 Pasadena due to severe safety violations. During the meeting on August 14, 2025, city officials presented a detailed inspection report highlighting critical issues with both the main and accessory buildings, which have been deemed dangerous to public health and safety.

The inspection revealed extensive damage, including rotting wood, missing shingles, broken windows, and exposed electrical wiring. The main structure's roof and siding are in disrepair, with significant water damage noted in various areas. The subfloor is also compromised, posing tripping hazards, while the electrical panel has been deemed unsafe, leading to the disconnection of services by CPS. Currently, the property owner is relying on a generator for power, which raises additional safety concerns.

The accessory structure is similarly affected, with a damaged roof and cluttered interiors making it difficult to navigate. The presence of multiple extension cords and a generator inside the bathroom further exacerbates the fire hazard.

City staff emphasized that these conditions violate multiple city codes, categorizing the buildings as unfit for human habitation. The board's recommendation for demolition aims to protect the community from potential hazards associated with these dilapidated structures.

As the city moves forward with this recommendation, residents can expect further actions to ensure the safety and well-being of the neighborhood. The decision underscores the city's commitment to maintaining building standards and safeguarding public health.
