Chester faces protracted stalemate over $10 million in aid

Chester State funds and federal aid remain blocked as the City Council and Mayor clash over establishing a task force to reform the troubled Chester Redevelopment Authority. Audits froze $3.57 million, plus $6 million in Urban Development Action Grant funds, with state and local officials warning of continued delay without a viable redevelopment agency.

McLaughlin resists task force for CRA over CDBG funds

In a city council discussion, Mayor McLaughlin and colleagues debated appointing a person to oversee the CRA to proceed with the program. HUD officials pressed for a committee or empowered Redevelopment Authority, while McLaughlin warned of a council accountability path and said a task force is not the solution. He suggested a plan by January 14 but wouldn’t disclose details.
