The Status Report for the
Section 23 Leased Housing
Program, including the
trial balance, dated February 20, 1974, prepared by the Director-
Secretary, was received and filed on the unanimously approved motion

REPORT OF SECRETARY
Mr. Rede responded to various questions by the Commissioners on
operational expenses and the new standards of the Department of Housing
and Urban Development. He stated that the Authority has two full-time
PEP (Public Employment Program) employee s; that administrative expense s
will be considerably reduced under the new HUD standards; and that the
first 100 units of leased housing will continue under the existing admin-
istration but as existing lease s expire, renegotiation would be under the
provisions of the new program. He expressed his opinion that the new
program's greate st disadvantage s are that the prospective tenant will be
dealing on the open market which probably will result in the loss of the
distribution housing patterns the Authority has been able to achieve under

the previous operational standards and that the landlord will have
sole discretion in the selection of tenants which will also tend to
perpetuate existing housing patterns because of the tendencie s of
groups to segregate along economic lines.
