Council orders condemnation of one property, authorizes sheriff sale for another; resident seeks update on third condemned house
Summary
Council condemned 1242 Clark Street for demolition and authorized Keystone Collections Group to proceed with a sheriff sale of 324 Circle Drive; resident Jared asked for an update on 2172 Lewis Street, and administration said asbestos surveys were done but final reports are pending.
White Oak Borough Council moved to condemn a structure at 1242 Clark Street and to slate the property for demolition, and it authorized Keystone Collections Group to proceed with a sheriff sale for property at 324 Circle Drive during its Nov. 17 meeting.
Planning and zoning staff held a 7 p.m. public hearing on 1242 Clark Street and read a motion to "condemn and declare the structure located at 1242 Clark Street ... unfit for human habitation or occupancy and to slate the property for demolition." Council approved the condemnation by voice vote.
Staff also presented a motion to authorize Keystone Collections Group to proceed with a sheriff sale for 324 Circle Drive (lot/block cited); council approved that motion by voice vote.
During public comment, resident Jared (1225 Clark Street) asked for an update on 2172 Lewis Street, described as a small condemned house that had an open door last week. An administration representative said asbestos surveys had been completed by the contractor and that final reports were not yet provided so demolition specifications could not yet be developed.
The meeting record does not include specific demolition timelines, contractor names for demolition, or roll-call vote tallies; council approved both property actions by voice vote.
