But the remaining two \u2014 a dispute resolution process, and a process for withholding rent during dispute resolutions \u2014 are taking longer, he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Further details weren\u2019t available from Army officials about the timing of the pilot and the locations that are providing maintenance histories. Information wasn\u2019t available from Defense Department officials about pilot programs at other services&#8217; installations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, Sarah Kline, an advocate in the Military Housing Advocacy Network, said she has heard from families at some of the locations where maintenance histories are being provided: Fort Wainwright, Alaska; Marine Corps Air Station Cherry Point, N.C., and Monterey, Calif.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Providing a unit\u2019s maintenance history is one of 18 rights for tenants <a href=\"https:\/\/www.militarytimes.com\/pay-benefits\/2020\/10\/07\/senators-want-answers-on-delayed-rights-for-military-housing-tenants\/\" target=_blank>required by law<\/a>, as part of comprehensive reform provisions to address pervasive issues with mold, rodents, and other health, safety and environmental hazards in privatized military housing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In 2019, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.militarytimes.com\/pay-benefits\/2019\/02\/14\/black-mold-rodents-lead-paint-in-privatized-housing-no-rent-until-its-fixed-military-spouses-say\/\" target=_blank>military spouses testified before lawmakers<\/a> about black mold growing out of the walls, rodents, and water leaks in their family housing, and their frustration dealing with landlords and the military to get it fixed. A number of families have told Military Times they\u2019ve been contacted by previous tenants of their house who said the problems went unaddressed when they lived there, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Kline said her organization would have liked to see the maintenance histories being provided by now. &#8220;Service members and their families are continuing to move into homes with systemic issues,\u201d Kline said. \u201cThey are left trying to put the pieces together when issues present themselves without the knowledge of the home\u2019s history. After nearly 10 months since the signing of the [Fiscal 2020 National Defense Authorization Act], a full roll out of the work order history that includes all \u2018notes\u2019 about each work order to all [privatized housing] residents is what the Military Housing Advocacy Network would have like to have seen implemented.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">McCarthy said he thinks service<b> <\/b> officials will have at least 16 of the 18 tenant bill of rights provisions completed before the end of the year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In June, defense officials announced that 14 of the 18 provisions under the tenant bill of rights were in place. The four remaining are deemed by many military families to be the most critical: common forms and documents for all housing tenants; dispute resolution; withholding of rent during dispute resolutions; and access to the maintenance history of their housing unit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Lawmakers have pushed Secretary of Defense Mark Esper for answers on the status of key protections for tenants of military housing which haven\u2019t been put into place yet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe remaining two are going to be tough. In particular, the dispute resolution,\u201d McCarthy said. \u201cWhat we\u2019re looking at with the dispute resolution is, can we find a third party that would be like the arbiter between the company and the soldier in this case. So we\u2019re looking at a way to complete that, but\u2026. We\u2019re moving ahead,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe need to make sure that the person that\u2019s the arbiter is truly a third party, [one who] doesn\u2019t have equity on one side or the other of the equation.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Officials are working through the issues with the privatized housing companies, as well as with the congressional committees who have oversight, McCarthy said. \u201cI can appreciate why they would want to make sure they get that right. We want to get it right, too.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Most tenants in military privatized housing <a href=\"https:\/\/www.militarytimes.com\/pay-benefits\/2020\/06\/03\/most-military-tenants-have-most-of-their-rights-now-heres-whats-missing\/\" target=_blank>now officially have 14 of the 18 rights<\/a> designed to ensure safe, quality and well-maintained homes, according to a memorandum sent to tenants in June.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A pilot program is
