Residents will rally at council, which will consider forming committee to solve issues at The Oaks
OAKLEY — One family at The Oaks sleeps with the lights on. Not because they are afraid of the dark, but because they fear the cockroaches that come out of their hiding places at night to forage for food – on the counters, table, chairs, cupboards and showers. Everywhere.
“I have to get rid of the rest of the couch now because my daughter had one crawling on her,” she said. “I can’t let my family sit there anymore. … My table is going to end up going. I’ve seen them on my dresser, my nightstand. I’ve seen one on my bed.” That’s why Mike Dupray, a volunteer tenant advocate, said he is rallying residents to tell their stories and hoping the council can set up an ad hoc committee to find solutions for The Oaks. A visit to an infested apartment prompted him to take action, he said.
Dupray thinks officers should have taken a better look to find the roaches, which he clearly saw two weeks later. Code enforcement officers were scheduled to return on Friday but did not show up.
