A Lake Elsinore property plagued by dangerous code violations is rehabilitated through court receivership, bringing safety to the neighborhood.
A Lake Elsinore property had been a longtime focus of code enforcement efforts because its owner failed to take timely action to bring it up to compliance. After many attempts from the City to gain voluntary compliance from the property owner, seeking out Civica Law proved necessary.
Before
Code enforcement officers found 54 extremely dangerous violations including but not limited to squatters, drugs & crime, disturbance of peace throughout the night, severe fire, electrical, and structural hazards, and unsanitary living conditions. In addition, many neighbors submitted complaints to the city. An immediate court intervention was necessary to protect occupants, neighbors, and the community from this property’s severe safety risks.
After
Under the court’s supervision, a court-appointed receiver sold the property to a responsible buyer who demolished the building and quickly brought it up to code. Through the court action, the City of Lake Elsinore’s enforcement fees were reimbursed and the people in the neighborhood can finally sleep at night.
