A vacant East Chestnut Street home that was the subject of neighbor complaints at several village council meetings this summer is on the fast track to possibly being acquired for demolition by the Columbiana County land bank program. Councilman Peter Wilson reported this week the property at 518 E. Chestnut St. was on the list of properties to be sold at a sheriff's sale scheduled for Oct. 9. The dilapidated condition of the long-vacant property was the focus of considerable discussion at council meetings in June and July and how it related to the village's inaction when it comes to enforcing the nuisance housing law.
