After more than two days of waiting, some tenants of the HERE apartment complex have been allowed to move in, according to a statement from the developer of HERE Kansas. Ninety tenants are still waiting for their units to be approved for occupancy.

The complex has now been issued a temporary occupancy permit for the building that excludes 90 bedrooms on floors seven and eight of the north tower. City spokeswoman Megan Gilliland said those units were excluded because they are not yet complete.

HERE hopes that the remaining units will be approved to be occupied by Tuesday or Wednesday, according to information provided by JJ Smith, chief operating officer at CA Ventures, the developer for the project. The complex is located just north of Kansas University campus, where classes resume Monday.

Hundreds of tenants had waited in limbo after the site at 11th and Mississippi streets failed to meet City of Lawrence safety codes required for an occupancy permit. The site had undergone two inspections per day beginning Monday.

The complex currently has 504 residents, according to Smith. Smith said that HERE paid the hotel costs for those who stayed at the provided hotel options and will also be reimbursing expenses associated with other travel inconveniences connected to the move-in delays. Tenant accounts will be credited for the entire month of August as well.

The original move-in day provided to lessees was Aug. 7, and that date has since been pushed back multiple times. The $75 million apartment project includes 624 bedrooms and 13,500 square feet of commercial space.

The city issued the Temporary Certificate of Occupancy permit Thursday evening. According to the TCO permit issued to HERE by the city, the unfinished units must be maintained inaccessible to the public.

As part of the temporary permit, city inspectors in Fire-Medical, Public Works and Planning and Development Services noted 29 items that need to be complete by Sept. 1 or earlier. Those include about a dozen safety items, such as the installation of permanent guardrails and/or handrails, reconstruction of exterior concrete stairs on the building’s south side and the completion of window stops for floors above the third level.

The complex’s final certificate of occupancy won’t be issued for another 6 months, and is contingent on completion of an additional parking lot. HERE developers have proposed a plan to build a lot, but it would need to be approved by the City Commission before moving forward. The final occupancy permit also requires that all of the 29 conditions in the temporary permit have been met and approved by the city.
