Fort Campbell discuss family housing concerns at Town Hall set for February 26th

Fort Campbell 

Fort Campbell KY - 101st Airborne DivisionFort Campbell, KY – As part of an ongoing Army wide effort to resolve unsatisfactory conditions in Army family housing, Fort Campbell’s leadership will hold a town hall to provide information and gain feedback at Wilson Theater, Building 93 Michigan Avenue at 6:00pm, Tuesday, February 26th, 2019.

This town hall is an internal forum for installation leaders to personally connect with Soldiers, Army families and other residents of Fort Campbell to help ensure they are meeting their obligations to provide safe, quality family housing.

In a recent statement, Secretary of the Army Dr. Mark Esper stated, “We are deeply troubled by the recent reports highlighting the deficient conditions in some of our family housing. It is unacceptable for our families who sacrifice so much to have to endure these hardships in their own homes.”

“Our most sacred obligation as Army leaders is to take care of our people — our Soldiers and our family members.” Esper added “We will hold our chain of command and private contractors accountable to ensure they are meeting their obligations to provide safe, high quality family housing.”

The contractors he refers to are private companies who partner with the Army to provide housing as part of the Residential Communities Initiative. Senior members of Campbell Crossing LLC will join Major General Brian Winski, 101st Airborne Division and Fort Campbell commanding general and Col. Joseph P. Kuchan, Fort Campbell garrison commander to engage residents of Fort Campbell housing.

These leaders want to ensure residents understand their rights as tenants in privatized housing, how to report a concern and receive prompt action, and how to voice any complaint they feel is unresolved.
