Local homes face demolition as owners ignore safety orders
During a recent government meeting, officials discussed the impending demolition of two homes deemed unfit for habitation due to unresolved issues, including the inability to replace septic systems. The properties, located at 8938 East Hillis Street in Hillsburg and 3175 South State Road 39 in Antioch, have been under unfit orders for an extended period.

The Hillsburg property was left incomplete mid-remodel about a year and a half ago, while the Antioch home is owned by an unresponsive Texas-based owner. Officials expressed concern that new buyers may be unaware of the properties' conditions, leading to potential complications and liabilities.

As the situation stands, if the current owners do not take action within the next 30 days, the matter will be revisited by the council to discuss the next steps toward demolition. The Hillsburg property is currently on the tax sale list, and officials plan to ensure that all parties involved are informed of the situation to avoid any claims of ignorance regarding the properties' status. This discussion serves as a preliminary notice to the council about the upcoming decisions regarding these properties.
