Resident asks council to let him rehabilitate condemned house at 714 S. Brady Ave; council to proceed with demolition
Summary
Daniel Robins asked the council to cancel a scheduled demolition at 714 S Brady Ave and allow him to acquire and rehabilitate the property; the council stated it would move forward with the demolition as scheduled.
During the public‑comment portion of the May 17 meeting, resident Daniel Robins identified himself as a contractor who rehabilitates distressed properties and asked council to cancel the scheduled demolition of the house at 714 S Brady Ave so he could acquire and rehabilitate it.
Robins said it would make more economic sense for the city to allow rehabilitation rather than proceed with demolition. The mayor and council responded that the plan is to move forward with the scheduled demolition; no alternative timetable or follow‑up action was offered in the meeting record.
The public comment time is limited to three minutes per speaker by council rules; the transcript shows council acknowledged Robins’ request but confirmed the demolition schedule would proceed.
