Four vacant houses on South University Avenue near U S 119 are eyed for teardown as state highway plans to widen the road loom. Two homes will be inspected for fire hazards after recent blazes, with owners waiting for the state to buy the land for four laning. Neighbors fear further fires and seek to clear sites for safety and land use.
