Bryson hotel eviction case halts pending relocation plan
The Department of Urban Renewal agreed to a consent order in Judge William Bauer's court delaying evictions at the Bryson hotel until proper relocation is found. The Bryson Citizen Tenants union and 16 residents allege DUR violates the 1949 Housing Act and HUD rules by pursuing demolition without redevelopment plans. The BCTA cites feasibility studies for a moderate income cooperative with FHA financing and criticizes DUR for not extending an option to a not-for-profit sponsor.
