The Lorain Demolition Board of Appeals continued the demolition stay for 615 W. 23rd after the board read a letter from owner Silas Busch explaining he is recovering from a recent medical procedure and receiving home health care.

Through a representative, Busch told the board he expects to attend follow-up care and be cleared for light duty after a surgeon appointment on Nov. 7; the representative read a written request asking the board to continue the stay while the owner recuperates and arranges maintenance of the property.

Board members accepted the letter into the record, asked whether anyone from the public wished to comment (none did), and approved a motion to continue the demolition stay.

The board asked staff to monitor the property and indicated it would revisit the case if the owner does not meet the stated timeline or if the city receives further relevant information.
