APCHA has issues

Elizabeth Milias’s April 25 column, “The runaway APCHA train has officially jumped the track,” was disturbing. It reported that Aspen-Pitkin County Housing Authority employees ignored a prospective buyer’s request to turn on the heat in an abandoned property, resulting in the pipes bursting. This added more expenses for a buyer. These employees need to be let go.

As a taxpayer, I am disturbed that this program is so poorly run. Politicians call for building more employee housing but do not address deteriorating existing housing, which in some case are becoming slum housing.
