cause why such buildings or structures in Section 2 should not be demolished in
accordance with the State of Particulars set forth in the Code Compliance Division's
notice; and said Public Hearing was had and held at the time and place fixed therefore,
the day of the approval of this ordinance, in the Council Chambers in the City of Wichita
Falls, Texas, and at such Public Hearing, protests and objections were made in
accordance with the List of Objections (to be attached after meeting) and said hearing
was continued until all desiring to be heard were given full fair opportunity to be heard
and the City Council of the City of Wichita Falls, having fully considered all property
matters, is of the opinion that the said hearing should be closed; and,
WHEREAS, the City Council finds that the photographs and other evidence
presented at the hearing and in the List of Structures to be Repaired and List of

described buildings be demolished or repaired as established in this ordinance.

1 . The aforementioned public hearings are closed, and the protests and objections
are overruled, except as identified on List of Objections. If corrective actions
are not completed within the period authorized by the City Council acting as
Building Commission, the structure will be demolished.
2. From the evidence presented in the aforementioned Public Hearing by property
owners appearing and the Code Compliance Division for the City of Wichita
Falls, the buildings and/or structures at the locations listed in the attached List
of Structures to be Demolished, with the corresponding property owners, are
found to be dangerous buildings which cannot be repaired as defined in said
Article VIII of Chapter 22 of the Code of Ordinances of the City of Wichita Falls,
and the property owners listed therein and any other person having an interest
in said buildings as shown by the title search by the City of Wichita Falls are
hereby commanded to demolish the buildings and/or structures in accordance
with the State of Particulars set forth in the Code Compliance Division's notice.
The property owners listed on the attached List of Structures to be
Demolished and any other person having an interest in said buildings as shown
by title search by the City of Wichita Falls are further commanded to demolish
in accordance with the State of Particulars set forth in the Code Compliance
Division's notice within 30 days from the date of this ordinance.
3. If, within 30 days from the date of this ordinance, any building listed in Section
2 of this ordinance has not been demolished and removed, then it shall be
demolished and removed at the expense of the City, by the City or the City's
contractors (subject to City funding), and the net cost for demolition or removal
shall be charged to the owners of the property and assessed on the land on
which the building stood.
4. The dangerous building demolition order for the properties listed in the List of
Structures for which Repair is Authorized is suspended for 30 days from this
date, and the dangerous building demolition order is to be valid again if the
property owner does not obtain a restoration permit to restore this building within
such time. If the property owner obtains a restoration permit to restore this
building within the aforementioned period of time, then the dangerous building
declaration for this property is suspended for the additional time of 90 days, and
the dangerous building demolition order is to be valid again if the property owner
does not bring this building into compliance with all codes of the City of Wichita
Falls within the aforementioned 90 days. If the property owner brings this
building into substantial compliance (as determined by the City's Building
Official) with all codes of the City of Wichita Falls within the aforementioned 90
days, then this dangerous building order will be terminated. The owner's failure
to comply with either of the aforementioned deadlines will authorize the City to
demolish the structure without further notification to the owner or any other party.
List of Structures for which Repair is Authorized:
5. These structures pose a danger of collapse and conflagration, harbor pests,
spread disease, and are places of assembly for dangerous criminals; therefore,
their demolition constitutes an emergency for the immediate preservation of the
public business place, property, health, safety and general welfare of the public,
as this ordinance shall become effective immediately from and after the date of
its passage and accordingly it is so ordained.
PASSED AND APPROVED this the 1st day of September, 2026.
