The Bucklin City Council voted on Aug. 18 to hold a show-cause hearing to determine whether a residential structure at 122 W Elm is a dangerous building unfit for human habitation and should be condemned. Councilmember Nichole Pearce moved to approve the hearing and Councilmember Justin Engel seconded; the minutes record the motion carried 4-0.

The motion authorized the council to proceed to a formal show-cause process; the transcript does not record a hearing date or further procedural steps. No members of city staff spoke to details of the property or presented an inspection report in the recorded minutes. The action is procedural and does not itself order condemnation — it sets the matter for a subsequent hearing where findings and any order would be made.

Mayor Cody Warden presided over the session. The agenda item was listed under Items of Business; no additional public testimony about the 122 W Elm structure is recorded in the minutes. The council did not record any conditions, deadlines or staff assignments related to setting the hearing in the posted transcript.

The council meeting adjourned at 7:19 p.m.; the minutes do not show the show-cause hearing taking place during this session.
