NORFOLK, Va. (AP) - Officials in the Virginia city of Norfolk have said they will no longer talk to the media about a project that will demolish about 1,700 public housing units and force the relocation of thousands of residents.
The Virginian-Pilot reported Monday that city attorney Bernard Pisko has advised officials not to take questions from reporters “in light of pending litigation.”
A federal lawsuit filed by a group of residents claims that the St. Paul’s redevelopment project would run afoul of federal housing rules that are meant to prevent racial segregation.
