He had led the office since October 1989 and said he would resign rather than let his authority be undermined.

GSC tightens demand for housing officials documents
WINDOW ROCK The chair of the Council's Government Services Committee says it will take steps to obtain subpoenas issued against the Navajo Housing Authority. Irvin Keeswood Sr. warns the NHA administration's refusal to comply raises suspicion and notes options including court enforcement, internal documents, a special prosecutor, or referral to the HUD inspector general. The committee seeks a quick internal resolution and cited subpoenas issued in September demanding personal records of NHA Executive Director Chester Carl and Deputy Director Ralph Redhair by September 30. Carl says neither he nor Redhair will turn over personal financial records, contending the committee lacks authority and requesting more time for other documents.
