Dealing with delinquent tenants

The situation: Tenant has been given written notice to vacate premise on April 8th (tomorrow) due to breach of lease. Tenant has not paid April's rent. Tenant is owing on water bill. Tenant has not responded to any communications from me (written, e-mail, texts, or calls). Now she has texted me that the fire department has deemed the stove in her apartment as a danger and cannot be used until replaced or repaired. Do I have an obligation to fix that stove? and what are the possible outcomes to this situation if I were to fix the stove or not. It is safe to assume that she will not be leaving the apartment tomorrow and I will have to start the eviction process through the court on Monday. Any advice will be greatly appreciated.
