About 13 families displaced after Town of Pulaski condemns apartment complex

PULASKI, Va. – About 13 families were forced to relocate on Wednesday after the Town of Pulaski condemned an apartment complex.

Earlier this week, the Town of Pulaski’s building official found that A Pleasant Hills Townhomes had unsafe living conditions, according to Pulaski Town Manager Darlene Burcham.

The building official told the owner that the apartment complex would be condemned if repairs weren’t made. In response, the owner informed the building official that tenants living at the apartment complex would be instructed to vacate due to the unsuitable living conditions.

On Tuesday, tenants were told that they had 24 hours to pack their things and find a new place to live.

Burcham told 10 News that the town does not have information on the location of the families, but that “several individuals and organizations did come forward to assist.”
