The home has significant safety issues which meant we didn’t feel comfortable having our grandkids come to the space. There are no working smoke or CO2 alarms and lots of exposed wiring throughout the house (fire code violation). There is no heat except for tiny space heaters insufficient for the space so we wore our coats and...
