Erskine College is one of six buildings whose council notices ordering earthquake strengthening work or demolition are about to expire with no work yet in sight.
The Wellington City Council was warned yesterday that its hand may be forced if the building owners failed to act.
Earthquake resilience manager Neville Brown told councillors the preferred step was to work with owners to come up with a solution, but if none could be found the next step was to seek a court order for either strengthening work or demolition.
“If we don’t get results, then we might see ourselves going to court to get approval to demolish the building.”
