Housing, Taxes, and the Future of La Crosse's Neighborhoods
A joint city/county of La Crosse Housing Task Force is hoping to improve upon aging and low-valued housing in La Crosse. The task force met regularly since last June and recently wrapped up its meetings, but in the end, produced a final report, complete with recommendations to improve housing. We talked about the group’s work with Task Force Chair and President of Gerrard-Hoeschler Realtors Rick Staff, Task Force member and Couleecap Housing Director Todd Mandel, as well as La Crosse County Community Development Specialist Brian Fukuda, who helped compile the report.

Housing, Taxes, and the Future of La Crosse's Neighborhoods
If the housing stock is to improve in the city of La Crosse, people who own the homes will have to lead the way. We wanted to get the perspective on housing issues from people who are players at the neighborhood level. Sara Sullivan is a city council member and the chair of the Neighborhood Revitalization Commission in La Crosse. Randy Magno heads the Washburn Neighborhood Association and also sits on the commission.
