KANSAS CITY, Mo. (KCTV) – City inspectors will determine if a damaged Kansas City apartment building with a history of problems is safe enough to remain standing.

Kansas City firefighters responded to a fire on the second floor of the Olive Park Village building shortly after 11 a.m. Monday. They could see smoke and fire coming from the building before they arrived at E. 9th Street and Olive Street.

The department said it took about 20 minutes to get the fire under control. No one was injured in the fire and it remains under investigation.

This is at least the second fire in the building in less than two months. Firefighters also responded to a fire at Olive Park Village on March 5.

This comes after dozens of families evacuated the building when the Department of Housing and Urban Development cut funding over dangerous and unlivable conditions.
