Tenant Meeting Feb 22, 2012


At the last minute I decided to attend the meeting and I was surprised to see the Director in the room. Even though there's tension between us I thought “Ok, let’s see where this goes” and I sat down…..as the meeting progressed and each of the staff did their shtick it was quite obvious most of the topics didn't apply to me but I was looking forward to question period.
Today I have no complaints about the meeting and the staff didn’t drive me nuts with their “don’t do this and don’t do that or else” scenario. Near the end I asked the Director probably IMO the most important question in regard to their non profit organization and she gave me an acceptable answer.  I was impressed with the few tenants who voiced their concerns but not with those who interrupt or make snide remarks when another is speaking.  Let’s not forget our manners people!
I didn’t stick around for the adjournment I had a plate of leftovers and I’m famous for fast exits.  :)

Things looked promising after the meeting then later - Shit hit the fan.

Lorraine & Charles and their job description.  :D
  Tenant Meeting Minutes for : Friday December 16, 2012
Remember my previous blog titled "Sugar Coated Reports" well this also applies.  To the KM Staff: to avoid any misunderstandings give a clear explanation on rules and reminders and proofread your documents.  I was annoyed when I first read section #5 and pay attention to the dates, notice what I wrote above in bold lettering...that’s exactly how the header is written on the report.

Poor Working Environment

My unit is located near the KMHC office, along with a friendly wave or hello I see the junior staff going about their business in a cheerful manner with the exception of one employee.   You would think KMHC has a pleasant working environment but that is not the case.   March 2016 is when Urban Native Homes head office was forced to move from their former spacious location to the cramp basement level of KMHC.   There were approx. 8-10 staff members at the time.   Then the Urban Native Homes financial scandal broke out and soon after the current UNH acting director’s illicit past became public knowledge, everyone was worried will they have a job.  Fearful meetings going on in the community room, the rumor mill was in full rotation while I just stood back and observed the panic.   Check your search engine it states this building location is Urban Native Homes head office yet that is not correct.  There is no real head office, the organization has s...

The End Is Here

Urban Native Homes Inc. will no longer exist.   Today and tomorrow Ciy of Hamilton/Ontario Aboriginal Housing Human Resources Dept. are interviewing UNH staff and other applicants in the community room.   Who will be rehired and who will be fired!   I just hope they choose wisely. Tonight I heard Christine Lenze, her mother Ingrid Nosel and the rest of their family and friends has left UNH. This evening before I left for the gym I ran into receptionist Melissa Wissner in the hallway.   She was waiting for her job interview and had a message for me from former UNH caseworker Crystal Mackenzie.  Crystal wishes me good luck and it was a pleasure working with me.  I was surprised by the message and I wish her the best too. :) My blog site has accomplished what I started out to do some years ago by publicly outing the mismanagement of Urban Native Homes Inc.  It's been a long arduous journey. I would like to thank anonymous and the others for thei...

The Ladies of KMHC

I & friend Teresa Last week I attended a program host by NWC Hamilton, it was there I met up with six female tenants of KMHC.   It was nice to see the ladies again I was greeted with hugs and smiles.   The program was Holistic teachings by Jane Burning she spoke about the Creator and positive thinking.   I enjoyed the presentation though it was a wee bit long.   During lunch break I had the chance to chat with the KMHC tenants to find out how’s life going at KMHC.   Things haven’t improved most tenants don’t like each other and there’s a lot of negative energy in the building.   I offered a sympathetic ear and didn’t judge as they shared their stories. The big problem with KMHC is tenant Aunt Opie and I’m glad she didn’t attend the NWC program.   You may recall I spoke of her in past blogs, aunt Opie’s negativity spreads throughout KMHC.   She brags about sending false complaint e-mails about tenants and staff to Justin the head direc...
