Housing Authority and DeSantis Resolve Misunderstanding
Troy Housing Authority commissioners and City Manager Ralph A. DeSantis reached an amicable agreement to end a dispute over the Margaret W. Phelan Housing Project. The THA will acquire seven of nine buildings, with options to purchase buildings 5 and 7 after occupancy certificates are issued to First Merrick Construction Co. A survey will bound property lines for the two excluded structures. Both sides agree the developer waives change orders and that closing is expected around Navy 1. Opponents on both sides realize they share a common adversary in First Merrick. The parties fully concur that their main objective is to see housing progress continue.
