(KNZA)--The city of Hiawatha is seeking the removal of four derelict houses it deems unsafe.
The Hiawatha City Commission Monday evening approved a resolution setting a hearing for their March 20th meeting on the structures.
During the hearing, the owners will have an opportunity to show cause why the structures should not be condemned and ordered removed.
The structures are located at 914 Kickapoo Street, 1014 Pottawatomie Street, 1105 Shawnee Street and 111 Utah Street.
They were deemed unsafe by the city’s code enforcement officer.
In other business, the commission approved a certificate of final completion for phase 2 of the city’s sanitary sewer improvement project.
City officials who participated in a walk-through of the project last week said they were pleased.
City Administrator Mike Nichols says some seeding remains to be done and will be completed this spring.
Mayor Steffen Shamburg opened the meeting by reading a proclamation declaring February 5th-11th as Scouting Anniversary week. On hand were members of the local Boy Scout and Cub Scout troops.
