At the Legacy Crossing apartment building at 10535 Ellison Plaza, moving vans were lined up on Monday afternoon. Residents of the complex are being evicted by the City of Omaha after inspectors determined that the 17 buildings and more than 400 units were uninhabitable.
According to Stothert, the family’s quest for new housing should come first. The mayor claims that the city is searching for neighboring open residences in a comparable price range.
Recent examinations revealed that all 17 of the buildings had safety issues, Stothert added. The complex has about 408 apartments total, with a current occupancy rate of under 44%, according to the city.
The city has determined that the complex is hazardous to reside in as a result of several ongoing code violations and recent fires.
