New CHA chief to ‘think outside the box’ in transforming public housing - Chicago Sun-Times
Outside the box ya say? Well, start with all the father figures you refused to let live in such places by using that lame "income requirement". If you have the rent set at a particular level, it just makes common sense to up the ante for those making a little more. Just thinking outside the box, that's a win win for everyone involved. If you bemoan a budget shortfall, doesn't it makes perfect sense for you to grab that additional revenue stream? Of course it does. But in the blind hatred for people of color, those in power back in the 50's, and 60's thought it best to follow the "Willie Lynch Model" and separate families.
I don't know about you folks, but when your dad worked, and lived in the home, or apartment where the entire neighborhood knew him, crime was down. Unless, they ran a crime organization. But on the other hand, life in such neighborhoods was pretty laid back, and cool.
Maybe that is what these guys, and gals are truly thinking when they call it "Mixed Income Housing". Look, the housing sector took a major beating. It just makes complete, common sense for local, county, state, and federal housing departments to take another look at those out-dated income, and "Willie Lynch" requirements that applied during the late 50's and 60's.
