$1.5 Billion housing bond bill has passed Public housing in Massachusetts is comprised of 45,60 housing authority controlled apartments. 70% of these are occupied by elderly or disabled residents. The vast majority of the residents are extremely low income (below 30% of area median income). http://www.mass.gov/hed/docs/dhcd/ph/ph-reform/publichousingcommissionreport0612.pdf - per page 19 of 52 (Section 8 is a different program. Section 8 uses privately owned apartments). Lets hope that the $1.5B bond bill translates into vast upgrades for the resiliency of public housing in Massachusetts -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "massfire" group.
