Lost Subsidy

Postby Jennifer Hayden Walker » Mon Dec 06, 2010 11:39 am

After recieving notice telling us the buildings were under new management, began the nightmare. In April of 2004 I lost the NYCHA section 8 subsidy for good same reason. Then in June of 2004 the tenants recieved a notice telling us the buildings were under new ownership( I later found out this wasn't true from a tenant who learned it from the super), they wanted the tenants to vacate their apatrments. One of the tenants went to Assembly man Dov Hikind and found out they wanted to covert the buildings to a yeshiva. They wouldn't settle for 2 of the buildings, they insisted on all 3. Most of the tenants decided to leave, but some of us decided to fight and signed a petition. We recieved other notices telling us that the super( who had part financial interest in the buildings, and was later bought off) and his assistant were being let go.

Please change your user name to something other than your real name.

And this has been going on for six years? Has the LL done nothing? Have you found out who the LL really is? Have you done the research?

Three people signing a petition will get you nowhere. And Dov Hikind isn't exactly a friend of tenants.

Have you gone to Legal Aid or Legal Services?
