Burned Broad Street house set for demolition

A historic Broad Street building struck by fire last month is set to be demolished. The Nevada City Planning Commission voted 3 to zero Thursday to approve the demolition at 416 Broad St., finding the building to be “so damaged or dilapidated by fire that it is unusable and cannot reasonably be repaired or restored.” Commissioner Stuart Lauters recused himself from the vote, and according to City Planner Amy Wolfson, Commissioner Nikiya Schwarz resigned, leaving a vacancy. While there is no word on when the building will come down, applicant representative Richard Baker said they would work with the city to find the most appropriate time.

Nevada City Council could look into decision to deny demolition permit for burned building

John Orona | Staff Writer Janet Peake was working from home when she got a call that her office of 27 years was on fire. “I came.. and just watched it burn,” Peake, a financial consultant, said, her voice quivering. According to Peake, far from receiving minimal damage, Wednesday’s fire that razed a vacant home in downtown Nevada City left the roof of her building next door to the structure that completely burned nearly caving in, with a hole in one wall completely exposing her to the elements. Her upstairs office is now completely unusable, she said. Over the last 48 hours she’s hasn’t had time for much but to reassure clients and thank her many well wishers for reaching out.
