County to Seek Court Order to Destroy House Wakeman
Huron County Board of Health unanimously asked Prosecutor Bernard Freeman to file in Common Pleas Court for a demolition order on a vacant Wakeman house owned by King Wilmont. The structure, deemed a nuisance and unfit for habitation, has doors open, broken windows and bad wiring. A tax lien would cover razing costs. The board also moved to close a private dump on River Road near Monroeville run by Al Smith and approved a nurse policy detailing uniforms and hours. A sewer extension delay for a Monroeville home with a provisional septic permit was noted. Executive session followed.
