A home and two other buildings at 7872 Willard St. must be torn down, according to Burnaby council.
Council approved staff recommendations to demand the demolition of the buildings on the property at the July 11 council meeting.
The city has been receiving complaints about the property since 2002, according to the city manager's report, particularly after the residence was badly damaged by a fire in July 2009.
If the owners do not demolish the buildings and clear the property of all demolition waste within 60 days, the city is authorized to do so, at cost to the property owners, the report stated.
The city has been in contact with the owner, who has been advised of the report.
