Fisker’s former headquarters have been abandoned in a state of chaos, with hazardous waste and automotive equipment left behind by the company. The landlord, Shamrock (La Palma) Properties II, LLC, is now facing cleanup costs and damage repairs due to the mess left by Fisker.
The landlord has filed a new document in Fisker’s bankruptcy case, objecting to the company’s attempt to abandon the lease. Shamrock claims that Fisker sold some assets on-site to an auction house, but it is unclear who legally owns the remaining items. Despite assurances from Fisker representatives that everything would be removed by a certain date, the facility was left in disarray.
During a walkthrough of the facility, the landlord witnessed people hastily removing property and loading vehicles with various items. There were drums of hazardous waste, automotive batteries, and even full-size clay models left behind. The landlord expressed concerns about the unknown chemicals that may still be on the premises.
Additionally, there have been reports of unauthorized individuals breaking into the facility and attempting to set up residence. The chaotic situation left by Fisker has created a significant burden for the landlord and raised questions about the handling of the company’s assets.
As Fisker works towards finalizing its liquidation plan, the fallout from its abandoned headquarters underscores the challenges faced by the bankrupt company. The lack of clarity surrounding ownership of assets and the presence of hazardous waste further complicate the situation for all parties involved. It remains to be seen how this issue will be resolved as Fisker moves closer to the end of its bankruptcy proceedings.
