Louis Riccio retirws on Dec. 31 after serving for 40 years as executive director.
Meanwhile, the Board of Commissioners of the Madison Housing Authority unanimously voted to promote Tanya Van Order, who served as deputy executive director, to the position of executive director to succeed Riccio.
âThe authority commends Riccio for his extraordinary career in public housing, which began with the Newark Housing Authority,â the authority said in a press release.
âRiccio has been committed to dismantling the stigmas associated with high-density public housing. In his lengthy career in public housing, Lou and his team have created hundreds of homes for seniors, disabled households, and families in need.â
