There is some progress is restoring downtown Windsor's Westcourt Place building after Tuesday morning's fire.
Mayor Drew Dilkens held a briefing to update the status of various aspects of the situation.
He says the on-scene portion of the Ontario Fire Marshall's investigation of the parking garage fire is complete, but a final report may still be weeks away.
Dilkens says the city and emergency officials are no longer the one's responsible for the building.
"Control of the building has now been turned back over to the owners of the building and their insurance company. Fire service personnel have done really and amazing job to assist the residence but now that the building has been released requests for access to the building cannot come through the fire department or the city of Windsor. They are managed entirely by the owner and manager of Westcourt Place and their insurer."
He says the timelines to the completion of repairs is still unclear.
"The city is not able to provide a date for when the residents will be able to return to the units as the next steps are managed by the property owners and their insurance company but I can tell you that I am hearing that this could be upwards of two weeks perhaps longer depending on the amount of work that has to go on on site to make this happen."
Dilkens says the tenants who were housed at the WFCU Centre have now been moved to more permanent accommodation.
"I understand that busses have taken all the residents that were at WFCU to the motel accommodations provided by the property owners so effective immediately normal activities will resume at the WFCU and we certainly thank all of the staff, we thank the users at the WFCU for their patience."
Dilkens says a generator for the building has arrived and work to connect it and other services will continue through the weekend.
He says tenants of the building will now have to contact the representative of the owner for any return to their unit in the interim.
He says the Medical Officer of Health still has the building closed because there's no electricity, heat or water and no elevators or working fire alarms.
