Fire occurred on 2nd floor, insurance provided a trailer. One permit was pulled but work has not yet been started or completed. Been over a year without movement by owner, visit being scheduled, could take track with the Attorney General's office to get movement to get a resolution. Will provide additional info next time. Hard situation as there has been lack of compliance in this case. Insurance money not being used for repairs.
