Lancaster City To Cite Building Owners For Not Completing Repairs

Editor’s note:  Two thumbs up for code enforcement!!!

For the second time in a year, debris fell from the same downtown building onto the sidewalk below.

Lancaster city now is moving to cite the building’s owners, who did not complete a required engineering report after a 2-by-4-foot concrete panel fell July 19 from the building at 51-55 N. Queen St.

In the latest incident, chunks of mortar fell from the building between 2 p.m. and 3 p.m. Tuesday. The sidewalk in front of the building was blocked off with barricades.

Nobody was hurt in either incident.
