100′ sinkhole has not grown

A retest of the 100′ sinkhole under a vacant building in a Tampa apartment complex has been completed by a firm hired by the City.

The results showed that the sinkhole has not grown, and residents in the adjacent buildings will be safe until repairs are made.

Owners of the building have delayed making repairs while they dispute the amount of the insurance settlement.  A court hearing for the case is scheduled early this summer.  The City will continue to monitor until repairs are completed.
