While city officials confirmed repairs are 'ongoing,' those at the shelter say they haven't seen workers on site.
Someone with concerns reached out to CBS2's Jenna DeAngelis, who went back to the site to look into the issue.
DeAngelis first visited the shelter on Aug. 10 after being alerted to the issue. Residents at the time explained the elevator had been down since a flood in mid-July.They say when it first happened, signs were posted indicating elevators would be out for four to five months. Now, signs read"until further notice."The building is owned by the city.
"The people who were on the third floor who were disabled, who couldn't get up and down because of the elevator, they moved them to another shelter," one resident said. While city officials confirmed repairs are"ongoing," those at the shelter say they haven't seen workers on site.One man told DeAngelis he's glad to be moving out but worried about those who are stuck in this situation.
