BEMIDJI, Minn. – Nearly 50 residents of a federally subsidized apartment complex in Bemidji have until 4 p.m. Thursday to vacate the premises after inspections found serious structural issues.
A city-issued evacuation order was given last Friday at Red Pine Estates which houses many elderly and disabled residents.
At a recent city council meeting residents directed their anger at Twin Cities-based property manager The Schuett Companies.
The evacuation comes five weeks after a six-story apartment building in Davenport, Iowa, partially collapsed, killing three and injuring others.
