Harnett County adopts ordinance to demolish condemned structure at 19 Andrea Court

The Harnett County Board of Commissioners on Dec. 15 adopted an ordinance authorizing the demolition of a condemned structure at 19 Andrea Court and allowing the county to impose a lien to recover demolition and disposal costs.

Desiree Patrick, who provided a recap of the meeting, said, "A public hearing was held for the purpose of adopting an ordinance authorizing the demolition of the condemned structure located at 19 Andrea Court and to impose a lien to recover costs associated with the demolition and disposal." She also reported that no individuals provided remarks during the hearing.

The ordinance was adopted and the board approved the action, according to the meeting recap. The measure allows the county to recover the direct costs of demolition and related disposal through a lien on the property if necessary. The recap does not list the property owner, the estimated demolition cost, or whether the county will pursue immediate demolition timing; those details were not specified in the meeting summary.

The board’s next meeting is scheduled for Jan. 5, 2026 at 9:00 a.m.
