The Washington State Department of Health has granted the Value Motel owners’ request for more time to address the motel’s deficiencies.
The motel’s owners have until June 27 to correct the dozens of deficiencies health officials discovered during a safety survey March 30.
The state initially gave the Value Motel ownership until Wednesday to correct the identified deficiencies or face sanctions, including civil fines or revocation of the operating license.
Last week, the Value Motel ownership requested a 30-day extension to correct the problems.
During the March inspection, health officials discovered unsanitary bed linens, mattresses, carpets and walls. They also noted problems with the motel’s electrical disconnect switches and stairwell railings.
