LAS VEGAS (AP) — Aging multi-unit and extended-stay buildings in Las Vegas that have been converted from motels or hotels to apartments will be regularly inspected as a legacy of the deadliest residential fire in the city's history.
A program approved Wednesday by the City Council calls for code enforcement visits at least once a year to properties built before 1981 that have four or more units.
Six people were killed and more than a dozen were injured in a smoky pre-dawn fire on a chilly night in December 2019 at the Alpine Motel Apartments.
