Synopsis
Excerpt from DC Department of Public and Assisted Housing and Other Troubled Housing Authorities: Hearing Before the Subcommittee on Housing and Community Development of the Committee on Banking, Finance and Urban Affairs House of Representatives, One Hundred Third Congress Second Session, May 10, 1994
First of all, just a quick word about one piece of my experience which is particularly relevant to our topic this morning. I have been working in the public housing arena for about 20 years now, and have had a chance over the course of that time to learn from some of the best public servants in this area, including, I might add, two of the people at this table.
But in many ways, one of the most seminal experiences for me has been that of serving as a commissioner for the housing author ity in my hometown. In the course of this 20 years, the Cambridge, Massachusetts, Housing Authority has gone from a bankrupt agen cy on the verge of receivership to one of finest in the Nation.
