Sewickley Township has initiated a “Red X Program” to warn first responders of hazards and dangers in relation to vacant, abandoned, or condemned structures.
Each structure will have a Red X placard placed on it to warn the responders of potential dangers, warning them not to enter the premises containing hazards, and that the structure is ordered to be and presumed to be vacant. This will reduce the dangers to responders entering a hazardous structure to look for potential victims who are not there due to the property being vacant or abandoned.
Warning! *Please do not enter or allow your children to enter these vacant and abandoned structures. Responders will not be entering to look for people when the property is presumed to be vacant, ordered to be vacant, and labeled as such.
