CITIZEN STATEMENTS TO COUNCIL
Tina Haffeman - 1307 Washington Ave
Ms Haffeman is an Esther Housing group member and founder of the Day-by-Day Shelter. She works daily with citizens who are dealing with the affordable housing crisis. This affects people who make under $50,0000 a year, about 40% of the Winnebago population. Ms Haffeman addressed the council to bring attention to the need for a Tenant Resource center that would help prevent citizens from eviction.
Deb Martin - 164 Wildwood Dr
Ms Martin addressed the council with her concern about the lack of affordable housing in Oshkosh. Most affordable housing is poorly maintained, and some landlords refuse to make repairs after repeated requests. Many landlords charge more than the $25 per adult application fee that Wisconsin allows by law. Martin is asking the council to review the current city policies and practices for responding to tenant discrimination.
Bill Van Lopic - 2518 Sunneyview Circle, Appleton
Mr. Van Lopik would like Oshkosh to establish a resource center to empower tenants and support landlords. He believes that Oshkosh should consider some of the programs that Racine WI has implemented to help their city.
Carol Joubert -1530 Jefferson St
Ms. Joubert has seen firsthand how bad the housing crisis is while trying to help a friend find a place to live. Joubert feels there needs to be resources for tenants and landlords to help both parties get and offer affordable housing.
Jennifer Considine - 300 Dale Ave
Ms. Considine has done focus groups with the citizens and students of UWO. Most renters are afraid of retaliation by their landlords especially if they request to fix broken things on the property. Citizens are overly burdened by rent costs, and with 45% of Oshkosh’s population being renters, these issues need to be addressed by changing our current city policies and practices.
Elizabeth Wills - 424 Wisconsin St Apt 3
Ms Wills was at one time homeless and stayed at the Day-By-Day shelter. Wills is very grateful for them. She now has her own place. Ms. Wills understands the struggles of the homeless community. She is asking that an emergency warming shelter be put in place as soon as possible because of the cold temperatures approaching.
Phyliss Havens - 636 Poplar Ave
Havens once raised her family out of a storage unit and stated that "it is no way to live". Havens hopes that solutions can be found, so the homeless population can have the opportunity to uphold the law. |
