Linda Brown doesn’t expect to have a merry Christmas.
Brown, her daughter and five grandchildren were forced to leave their apartment this week after the city of Beloit declared it uninhabitable.
She plans to stay with a friend while her daughter and grandchildren stay with family in Chicago.
“I don’t think they should’ve put us out until after Christmas,” she said. “I already don’t have the Christmas spirit, but damn. It’s bad for the kids.”
City officials said they had no choice but to vacate 32 occupied units at Countryside Village Apartments, 2101 Freeman Parkway, after problems with heat, carbon monoxide and mold in the units.
