RE: Approve Spot Blight Designation; Authorize Redevelopment Authority to
Accept Donation of Property at 1024 Windsor Street
BACKGROUND
The RDA determined that the house at 1024 Windsor Street is blighted and authorized
acquisition of the property at their December, 2018 meeting. City staff, including the Oshkosh
Police, Attorney, Public Works and Inspection Departments, have been working with the
owner and Winnebago County Social Services over the past year regarding many code
violations. At this time, the owner has decided that maintenance and rehabilitation of the
structures are beyond her means, and has offered to donate the property to the City.
ANALYSIS
Since the RDA approved the blight designation and acquisition, the City Council must also
consider the acquisition through donation. If the Council approves the designation, staff
would intend to abate for asbestos and demolish the house and garage this winter, as weather
and City-crew time allows. The lot would then be sold for the construction of a new house.
FISCAL IMPACT
The City will be responsible for the following costs-closing, asbestos investigation and
remediation, demolition (hopefully by City crews), landfill tipping fees, and property
maintenance. It is estimated that this would total $10,000 to $20,000. The adjoining lot values
in the neighborhood average about$20,000, so the RDA/City could achieve a cost neutral
outcome.
