Excerpt: . . . peaceful neighborhood. HANO residents deserve management that quickly responds to maintenance requests, keeps its promises to make long-term neighborhood improvements, and wisely spends its funds. I want to begin by thanking my colleague on the Financial Services Committee, Congressman Richard Baker, a deeply concerned Representative from nearby who both brought this situation to my attention and asked me to convene this hearing.

For his hospitality, we welcome him and thank him for welcoming us to this great city and we welcome Congressman David Vitter, a strong advocate for the people of Louisiana. Both Congressman Baker and Jefferson were here 5 years ago, and I can understand the passion and frustration that they must feel for trying again to get a handle on the problems at HANO and see some real improvements. We also want to thank Chief Judge A. J. McNamara of the Eastern District of Louisiana and his staff for their cooperation in using this courtroom.

The report states that after spending over 139 million of the 243 million it received for modernization of the units in these past 8 years, HANO has not revitalized even one of its conventional sites. The report also states that management at HANO has constantly changed without improvement in results. In fact, HUDs own staff wrote that HANO can plan, but not implement, and that whatever progress has been touted as all--and Im quoting from the report--smoke and mirrors end of quote. HANOs most recent scores on HUDs public housing assessment system are, once again, . . . This item ships from La Vergne,TN., Rarebooksclub.com<
