City of Oshkosh INSPECTION, SERVICES DIVISION
If the city or Oshkosh would keep their eyes in neighborhoods where homes ar~ not
maintained we as tax payers would not have to pay to repair and clean up ~hese so called
blighted areas.
Volunteers could be recruited to be watch dogs throughout the city.
Send someone around the city with a camer~ do not wait until many of these properties
are falling down and trash piled a mile high before something is done. Home owners as
well as tenants should be responsible for maintaining their homes and yards, not the
taxpayers because they are just too lazy. . .
