Alexa, a resident of the New York City Housing Authority (NYCHA) community since 1969, addresses issues regarding Section 9 and interactions with private developers.

  • Expresses frustration with the lack of accountability in NYCHA and issues surrounding mismanaged funds by employees.
  • Highlights the inefficiency of district managers in providing information or responding to queries about NYCHA's operations.
  • Emphasizes the need to preserve Section 9 for NYCHA residents due to the impermanence of agreements with private developers, which only last 20 years.
  • Points out the potential risk to housing security after the 20-year contracts with private developers end, leaving residents without protection.

Hi.

My name is Alexa.
2:23:24
I'm a new a nacho resident, and I've been in since 1969, and I've been on the section 9.
2:23:34
And it's just going to take these private developers off our backs what what what what all this stuff that's being resolved with the 70 employees that took the money and do do I get answers on my district manager from district 3, which I don't want to mention his name.
2:24:03
And he he was present here.
2:24:05
He doesn't answer.
2:24:06
A lot of things that I would like to know about Nitro, and I wanted I want Nitro to be saved as section 9 because it's security.
2:24:16
Because the private developers, it only lasted 20 years on a contract.
2:24:22
And after 20 years, People are out of the apartments, and there's no protection with nature.
