  • Theant Participation in Public Housing Redevelopment
    WHO GETS THE FINAL NO? TENANT PARTICIPATION IN PUBLIC HOUSING REDEVELOPMENT Georgette C. Polndextert ''We have just as much rights as the rich white man. We can 't go back to the old days," proclaims Mrs. Eva Davis, President of the East Lake Residentst' Association. Mrs. Davis, a longtime resident o.fan At­ lanta public housing project slated for demolition and redevelopment, led tenant opposition to the redevelopment. That she perceived her tenancy in the housing project as a legal right invites discussion regarding how far community input has come in formulating urban renewal and, per­ haps more importantly, how this input should best be channeled in the future. This article proposes a reconsideration and reconstruction of the role of tenant input in federally funded low income housing initiatives. Through a developing body of case law, legislation and regulations, the community 's role in shaping public housing redevelopment projects has evolved from non-existence to a sometime right of unilateral veto. The middle ground between these two extremes bears investigation. Tenant involvement will take on a more meaningful role when assessed within a more clearly defined theoretical framework. Modem-day public housing development is in critical need of such a framework.
