Mobile home park may be closed

The Milwaukee Common Council’s Licenses Committee recently voted unanimously not to renew the license for the 132-unit Collegiate Park mobile home park, located at 6160 S. 6th St. in Milwaukee, which would force the park to close. The committee’s recommendation will be considered by the full Common Council on June 10. The mobile home park is owned by Zellmer Fromm. The park has a "long history of complaints to the city," according to Ald. Terry Witkowski, including code violations and numerous calls for police service. The most serious code violation, caused by two units with unconnected sewer systems, created a biohazard with untreated sewage under as many as 10 of the homes in the park during spring flooding.
