The executive director and purchasing agent for the Atlantic City Housing Authority need to be held accountable for ongoing problems providing safe and decent living conditions to tenants, City Council Vice President Kaleem Shabazz said Wednesday.
The Atlantic City Housing Authority voted to hire a consultant to help it apply to the federal government to demolish and replace Stanley Holmes Village on Thursday night, and heard more complaints from tenants in various properties about the inability to get needed repairs done.
Atlantic City Mayor Marty Small Sr. has said he will make some big announcements at this year s State of the City address. But will they be big enough to draw attention away from lingering problems and create new optimism for the city?
