Voluntary Demolition Program - Did you know?

Website News Posted on January 07, 2026

For application: CLICK HERE OR Visit in Person
How it works:

  • Property owners voluntarily apply to have a qualifying structure demolished.

  • The City covers demolition and debris removal when approved.

  • The structure must meet program criteria (typically unsafe, uninhabitable, or beyond reasonable repair).

  • After demolition, the lot is cleared and leveled, improving safety and neighborhood appearance.

Why participate:

  • Eliminates safety hazards and nuisance properties

  • Improves property values and neighborhood conditions

  • Reduces long-term maintenance and liability for owners
