Habitat for Humanity working to make a dent in affordable housing shortage

On the most recent edition of Eye on Oshkosh, host Cheryl Hentz discusses with Tom Simon, executive director of Habitat for Humanity of Oshkosh, the problem in this area of a lack of affordable housing. They discuss the results of a recent survey done by the City, which states that 1,700 new housing units will be needed in the City by 2030 in order to accommodate more than 3,200 new, permanent residents. The trouble with many of the housing developments being built in Oshkosh is that they are not affordable for the average Oshkosh resident. Simon explains his ideas about how to make a dent in the affordable housing problem, and what Habitat is doing to help alleviate the problem.
