Summary
The Housing Authority is no longer designated as troubled by HUD, meaning it's out of danger of receivership. The upgrade came from a record-high 31-point physical inspection score, though the agency still scores substandard in management due to occupancy rates and aged payables/receivables, and may appeal.
