FROM CITY: The property was condemned for lack of multiple required utilities (water, gas, and electricity) at varying times, typically due to non-payment of utilities. I know water is still off at the property but haven’t checked the other two recently. Once all utilities are restored, I can remove the condemnation. The utilities have all been turned back on and the condemnation will be removed. photos coming 5/29
