Orange County Commisioners Presentation <br />April 17, 1990 <br />WE HEARD OF APARTMENTS IN SUB - STANDARD CONDITION AND OF PEOPLE <br />IN MOBILE HOMES WHO ARE IN A POWERLESS POSITION WITH THE <br />LANDOWNER OF THE PARK. IF THEY COMPLAIN ABOUT SANITARY <br />CONDITIONS, THEY ARE THROWN OUT. WITHOUT THE PROTECTION OF A <br />LEASE OR SOME OTHER FORMAL CONTRACT, THEY ARE AT THE MERCY OF THE <br />PARK OWNER. <br />I COME TO YOU THIS EVENING WITH A MANDATE FROM THE PEOPLE OF THIS <br />COUNTY... TOGETHER, WE MUST STOP THE HARASSMENT, STOP THE <br />BEATINGS, STOP THE KILLINGS. WE MUST SHED LIGHT ON THESE DARK <br />AND FRIGHTENING CORNERS OF OUR RESPECTED COMMUNITY. WE ARE <br />STRONG ENOUGH TO FACE THESE PROBLEMS HEAD ON, AND THE HUMAN <br />RELATIONS COMMISSION IS PREPARED TO SUPPORT YOUR LEADERSHIP IN <br />DOING SO. <br />THANK YOU <br />
