Though we may read several news articles and scandals existing in subsidized housing, I'm guessing much of the unethical and illegal conduct remains silenced and unpublished. Certainly we heard of the tenant living in a subsidized apartment to be able to afford their Satellite Dish and cocaine habit. Have you heard the one where subsidized property employees at Rockland Place or Spring Gate Apts. tear down posted anti-drug notices provided by HUD? And, instead of owners having to comply with lease agreements in subsidized housing, Section 8 vouchers are unethically provided a tenant who reports crime at Rockland Place. Let's not forget the recent scandal in regard to illegal campaign contributions paid by Mr. Winn, a housing developer in Boston. (But, of course it wasn't to influence anyone with power, silly!)
And now we read of a harassment claim being paid with housing funds in Chelsea, Mass. “Local housing authorities are expected to notify DHCD if state funds are being used to settle any legal matters,’’ said Deborah Goddard, general counsel of the state Department of Housing and Community Development.

Freedom can not ring in an oppressive society. This blog reflects thoughts, personal experiences, + several notes of interest on 'affordable' housing. What do you think of gov't financing nuisance properties? Rockland Place continues doing business as SPRING GATE APARTMENTS along Martha Drive + Hannah Way in Rockland, Mass. (shady business).
