Wilcox Board votes to close village-owned trailer court; tenancy to end Sept. 30
Summary
The Village Board voted to terminate tenancy at the village-owned trailer court effective Sept. 30, 2025, and directed that tenants be notified; the decision came as trustees discussed housing needs and an ongoing housing study.
The Village of Wilcox Board of Trustees approved a motion to terminate tenancy at the village-owned trailer court effective Sept. 30, 2025. The motion was made by Trustee Adam and seconded by Trustee Norman and passed with all members voting in favor.
Minutes say tenants will be notified; the record does not include details about relocation assistance, timelines for vacating individual lots, or any financial arrangements for displaced tenants. The action was taken alongside other planning items, including an update that the housing study is about 85% complete and an Aug. 12 hearing on the Housing Study and Incentive Plan.
Trustee Adam commented on the village’s declining population and the need for more housing and modernization—remarks recorded in the minutes but not tied to a separate formal policy beyond the termination motion.
Next steps: tenants will be notified of the Sept. 30 termination; additional details were not recorded in the minutes and may be addressed at the Aug. 12 meeting when the housing study is presented.
