The Habitat Co. moves to end its property management for CHA, leaving 3,400 units of public housing in flux – Chicago Tribune/MSN

“For many years, our partnership with the CHA was mutually beneficial and an advantage to the residents,” a company spokesperson wrote in an email to the Tribune. “However, given the current challenges at the CHA, we no longer believe this partnership is in the best interest of Habitat or the residents.” In the 3,400 units of CHA housing that Habitat manages, approximately 2,500 residents are senior citizens and 1,300 residents are individuals with disabilities.

And guess who led the disastrous CHA/HUD Scattered Site Program for many years that saw hundreds of millions in waste and years of backlog and unbuilt housing– Habitat and its President at the time –none other than Valerie Jarrett. Obama rescued her from the fiasco, took her to Washington, and no one said a peep about what a disaster Valerie and Habitat were.

As CHA circles the drain (and I assume COVID $bucks$ run dry), Brando’s sticking with Scott who’s held over from Lightfoot administration …I guess with untold CHA properties siting empty, big spending on increased salaries & benefits, spending on non-housing “Move-to-Work (MTW)” program instead of Sec-8 vouchers, etc, etc Scott still checks all the progressive boxes for CTU/Brandon & crew?
