HUD is unloading vacant HOMES

Submitted by lmcshane on Thu, 04/23/2009 - 09:23.

HUD is unloading vacant homes in the City of Cleveland.  Call your council representative and demand some accounting for the fate of these homes. 

Community Development Corporations (CDCs) are picking up these HUD homes for $100.00 ($1.00?).  The CDCs are evaluating these properties for restoration and demolition.  Most will be demolished quickly and with little recourse.  Demolitions will take place using Community Development Block Grant funds (your money).  Ask who is getting these demolition contracts?

Rob Brezsny's Astrology Newsletter April 22, 2009 + http://FreeWillAstrology.com + "The planet is some kind of organized intelligence. It's very different from us. It's had 5- or 6-billion years to create a slow moving mind that is made of oceans, and rivers, and rainforests, and glaciers. It's becoming aware of us, as we are becoming aware of it, strangely enough.

The rumble strip noise means something (dhuuhh), but at 65 MPH it takes you a moment to compute....
