According to Adam Rush, Director of Public Works with the City of Batavia, 8 units behind the main house are not code compliant and not livable. The City of Batavia learned that residents were without water and electricity after an electrical issue and water issue in the laundry room caused both the water and electricity to be turned off for safety reasons. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

On Friday, September 18th, the structure was deemed unsafe and occupancy has been restricted by the Code Enforcement Officer as there is a high risk of fire due to an electrical equipment hazard and unsanitary living conditions within dwelling units.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

People should not enter the structure, a one story1560 sq. ft. wood framed multiple dwelling unit, except for the purpose of securing, making the required repairs or removing hazardous conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The main house at 665 Ellicott Street was not occupied. The separate units at 667 Ellicott Street are not affected by the notice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The units at both 665 and 667 are owned by Zendor Properties LLC of Gilroy, California. The company uses a property management company out of West Seneca for 665 and 667 Ellicott Street.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rush says the violations must be addressed by October 7th and then a reinspection must be completed. The building requires an electrical upgrade, and an inspection as units are not habitable and need to be sanitized.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
