(KNZA)--The Hiawatha City Commission voted Monday evening to proceed with the demolition of 11 structures.

Six of the structures have been deemed as unsafe, while the other five are in violation of the city's minimum housing code.

A deadline had been set for 5 p.m. December 7 for the structures to be repaired or removed.

City Code Enforcement Officer Dave Wilson said no repair progress had been observed on any of the structures.

The Commission voted 3-2 to grant a 30-day extension for repairs to made to a structure located at 400 South 4th Street, with Mayor Bill Collins and Commissioner Dustin Williams casting the dissenting votes.

The Commission denied a request from a representative of seven of the properties for a 90-day extension.

Demolition applications were approved for structures located at 315 Oregon Street and 815 Hiawatha Avenue. The city will demolish the structures at no cost, with the owner responsible for landfill fees.
