What to do if a house across the street from mine burned 2 years ago and I have tried for over a year to get the city or state to step in and do something to no avail?

The home is uninhabitable. I have seen people in recent days coming and going from there but I know for a fact the property has not been sold. Is there a law in that says that the government must demolish the home?
