William J. Kemble reported in the Daily Freeman the Catskill Town Board is considering whether to demolish a vacant two-story house at 285 Hamburg Road. The structure was discussed during a public hearing last week, with town Code Enforcement Officer John Cashin noting there has been significant deterioration during the past two years. Cashin said the house is unsecured and must be either taken down or substantially secured. The property is owned by Jerome Sterritt, of New Baltimore. According to neighbors, the house has been unoccupied for at least 12 years. Sterritt has 30 days to respond. Read the full story in the Daily Freeman.
