The Construction Council voted unanimously on Oct. 9, 2025, to declare the property at 5411 Stoneybrook Drive a public nuisance and order demolition after a city code officer presented photographic evidence of severe structural deterioration.

Stephanie Sánchez, a code officer with Development Services, said the case was being heard for the first time before the council. Sánchez described missing roofing and siding, an attached carport or outbuilding that is failing, exposed and removed electrical fixtures, interior debris and water damage. Photos taken Sept. 10 and Oct. 6, 2025, show missing drywall, holes in ceilings, rotted floor framing and termite damage in the rear accessory structure, Sánchez said. Staff recommended demolition under Article 8, Chapter 6 of the City Code, citing subsections 1, 5, 8, 11, 12, 15, 17 and 18.

No owner or representative was present at the hearing, and the council proceeded with the staff recommendation. A motion to declare the structure a public nuisance and order demolition within 30 days passed unanimously; the order requires securing the property and removal of debris.
