Walden criticizes Greenwich housing effort amid resigning leader
James Walden, who resigned as president of the Greenwich Housing Coalition on November 12, says officials are not serious about affordable housing. He criticizes town actions like Mason Street property purchase for parking and argues proposals to subsidize apartments and build above parking lots were unsupported by the Board of Selectmen. Walden defends the coalition for keeping housing on the public agenda and moving opinion, while accusing a bias against helping workers like teachers and nurses.
