Residents of North Court apartments on Chamberlayne near Laburnum have been displaced after their building was condemned. From Channel 8 News:
The North Court apartment building’s tenants were only given hours notice before being evicted at 7 p.m. Tuesday.
City officials say eight inches of sewage had built up on the floor of the building’s basement, forcing them to condemn the building. Officials expect the clean-up to take days.
The news was given to the building’s 30 residents at 10 a.m. Tuesday. The City is paying for tenants to stay in hotels while the sewage is cleaned. Officials say the displaced residents can move back in after clean-up is complete.
Many residents told 8News that if they can find alternate housing, they will not be moving back into their condemned building.
