Tenants in rural Manitoba apartment told to move out in one week
More than a dozen people in a rural Manitoba community have been told they need to move out of their apartment building in one week before the power is turned off.
In St. Jean Baptiste, the apartment building at 144 Caron Street has a historical designation. The building was constructed between 1897 and 1898 as the Convent of the Sisters of The Holy Names of Jesus and Mary.
Ed Heidebrecht now owns the building, which was converted into affordable apartments before he bought it a year ago. He has been adding nine more apartment suites to the nine it already has.
“It’s lots of work to do to have safe and beautiful (suites), and people come enjoy this,” Heidebrecht said.
Tenant Adonis Dubois said he was concerned about the work being done and called the Rural Municipality of Montcalm, where St. Jean Baptiste is located.
“It came out that he was doing all of this work, electrical, he ran hydro, he did plumbing without building permits,” Dubois said.
Those apartments aren’t all up to code, and the RM wants changes.
“Their concern is it’s not safe,” Heidebrecht said adding the changes he needs to make will take a month to do. He needs electricity to do it, but soon he won’t have any.
Because of the permit issues, he said the RM has given notice to the building – meaning all 20 residents have to pack up and leave by Friday.
Phil moved into the building in the fall.
“To find that out yesterday at two in the afternoon that the RM says we’re out of here in seven days, I think was poorly planned,” Phil said, adding he doesn’t know where he’s going next.
“My daughter and son-in-law and grand kids live in Altona so I’m hoping to stay in the area but I don’t know where that’ll be.”
With the clock ticking, tenant Brooke Fehr is worried about her mom finding a place to live.
“I’m not happy that this is happening,” Fehr said. “Seven days isn’t enough time.”
CTV News reached out to the RM of Montcalm. It declined to comment.
