Development Services reports recent emergency demolitions
Summary
City Development Services told the Building Standards Board it completed several emergency demolitions in December 2025; staff said no further board action was required on those sites. Alice Guajardo presented addresses and statutory authority (City Code Article 8, Chapter 6).
Alice Guajardo, Development Services Manager for Code Enforcement, summarized emergency demolitions carried out in December 2025 after extensive fires and cited City Code Article 8, Chapter 6 as the authority for those actions. The listed properties were described as having sustained fire damage severe enough to warrant emergency demolition; staff recommended no further board action on those specific emergency removals.
Guajardo closed her presentation and the board proceeded to the first contested individual case on the agenda. The report provided background context for several later hearings where staff recommended demolition or repair orders.
The presentation was factual and did not prompt a vote; it established staff actions that preceded the day’s formal case hearings.
