City Cracks Down on Motel Apartments

SHARE NOW

The City of Kosciusko is telling the owner of a local motel to make some changes or risk losing his business license.   Mayor Tim Kyle says the Campbell Motel has been operating as an apartment complex….

“We were unaware of that until they posted a sign saying ‘apartments only’.  Well, that area is not zoned for apartments.”

Kyle says the motel isn’t suited for long term accommodations…,.

“You have a lot of people that’s there, trying to live in an apartment-type setting, in one room with no kitchen facilities.”

The mayor says people using hotplates to cook their meals creates a fire danger.  He says there’s also an issue over sales tax not being collected.  The owner has been given until March 19 to convert the building back to a motel or his business license will be revoked.

    There needs to be more affordable housing options in this town before they are made to change it up. Some folks can’t afford to live anywhere else due to the housing market and the inflation. But no, it’s all about the people that HAVE money in this town. The politics around here need to be changed!!!!
