Highlights

Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO reviewed the application that the Housing Authority of Houston, Texas (HACH), submitted to the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to demolish and dispose of its Allen Parkway Village project to determine: (1) how HACH ensured that its application met federal requirements, including how it supplemented its original application and whether it had a plan for replacing the project's units; (2) whether HACH meaningfully consulted the project's tenants; and (3) the basis for the HACH estimate that project rehabilitation would cost about $30 million.
