Council tables demolition order for Overbrook Road property for 90 days
Summary
The council voted to table a demolition order for the property identified as '52 44 Overbrook Road' for 90 days after Nationstar Mortgage's attorney asked for more time to pursue foreclosure and renovation; the lender was asked to secure the property while it waits.
City staff presented a condemnation case for the property identified in the hearing as "52 44 Overbrook Road," which was posted for condemnation on 04/02/2026 and cited in staff remarks as having 47 housing code violations. Amanda Beckett, an attorney for Nationstar Mortgage, said the lender has a first-priority lien, is considering foreclosure, and requested additional time—about 90 days—to pursue renovation after gaining title.
After questions from council members about securing the house and a suggestion that the back door be closed to prevent access, the council moved and seconded a tabling of the demolition hearing for 90 days. The council directed that the matter return as unfinished business and emphasized that the property should be secured if the delay is granted.
