So he landed in the nicest part of section 8 housing of the entire city? In a section of $2M townhouses? Didn't qualify for the housing, didn't put himself on the long wait list, just moved right on in and still has a job?

This city is so corrupt.

"Located in the highly coveted Chatham Square"
Apparently highly coveted by the CEO of ARHA housing too. He just moved him and his family right in!

Oh, city council reacted, lol they hired Strategic Links, a crisis management company to "fix" this! You can't make this up!

This is a federal crime. I really hope the FBI gets in on this. I pretty sure they're going to find some other things...

The city of Alexandria and all their criminal chit like this is disgusting.

He was living in the nicest ones in Alexandria, a regular multistory townhome that is in the middle of a regular $1-2million TH complex. It was a section 8 unit in a market rate development. It’s was not in regular section 8 housing, like the ones by Braddock metro or off of Rt 1. This was deliberate.

Nope. Just luck of the draw. Completely coincidental.

This literally is illegal, and on a federal level. The FBI can arrest him for misappropriation of HUD funds. It's not even a grey area.

Let's hope they do but who's going to let them know? This story will be buried in.. 10, 9, 8, 7....seconds, just watch. Nothing will come of it.

This is what Kash ought to be running around having his FBI doing - we would all get behind him then!

It's astounding. The city doesn't even try to hide their bs.

Yep. Only Chapman shined a light on it. The rest of them just kept their mouths shut. What will really be interesting is if city records had Chatham Square as his mailing address.

This communication is intended as a formal request for the resignation of the individual in question. It has become increasingly evident that there has been no misunderstanding regarding the clear directive that any unit responsible for providing housing assistance to residents must maintain uninterrupted operations. However, this situation raises serious questions about the existence of a strategy to cover essential rent expenses and whether housing funds meant for critical support were inappropriately diverted towards renovations, especially with staff members undertaking such work. Such practices are entirely unacceptable.

Additionally, it is imperative to conduct a thorough forensic audit of the staff members who have family members residing in ARHA properties without having gone through the established waitlist process. This lack of adherence to proper protocols is concerning and warrants further investigation.

Furthermore, it is crucial that all members of upper management, along with the CEO, are held accountable and step down from their positions. The widespread instances of nepotism observed within the organization only exacerbate the situation and undermine trust in leadership.

HUD and the Office of Inspector General (OIG) must be involved urgently to address these troubling practices and ensure accountability. Where are these oversight bodies in light of these serious issues?

Exactly. It’d be well worth the cost to have them move every 2-3 years to make sure all of the buildings are getting attention. Go in alphabetical order and if one leaves, the next picks up at the next building on the list.

IDK if you can do this without some extra hazard pay or whatever that employees get who do not get to choose where and how to live. Because you are effectively making his life outside of working hours be dedicated to work, for which people are usually compensated. Like people who are military deployed or work on oil rigs or have to be live-in caretakers, etc, e.g. don't control their living conditions. It would have to be free housing to motivate people to do this and disclosed as part of a job.

That’s the idea, free housing. A CEO is pretty much on the clock all the time anyway.
