In my town there is a Section 8 housing Plan that was originally built with Federal money in the 1960's. It served it's purpose for years. But now out of the 10 buildings only 3-4 are used for housing and the other 5-6 are empty and pretty much shot. The Plan is in a very nice part of the town that developed around the housing plan, so very desirable real estate is taken up by this Section 8 housing manors.
At a Town Hall meeting a few days ago someone mentioned tearing down the Section 8 buildings to make room for developing a housing plan that would have 8-10 homes in the $100K-200K range. Another person asked what would happen to those people currently living in the Section 8 buildings?
What is your take on something like this? I think it is a no-brainer to get rid of the Section 8 and develop the property. Give the current residents ample time to find new living arrangements and start moving forward.
