this is the url for the previous post ... no report yet from the State
Fire Marshal n the Chestnut Manor fire .... nearly $1M being spent to
replace electrical panels at aha sites
==================
lets review
little enforcement of anti smoking rules
electrical panels have problems
fire department never inspects buildings and never does training
exercises in buildings
fire department has zero experience in dealing with highrise fires
over last 30 years
fire pump at 4 winslow has known issues since 2014 .... finally "fixed" in 2022
2020 fire at Chestnut Manor was caused by a smoker and caused $50,000
in damage ... as stated by the former EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR of the AHA
in a public meeting ... smoking was banned in all AHA units in 2015
no substantial mention of fire safety in buildings at AHA board
meetings over last 6 months even after a 2 bit fire wrecks 20
apartments and kills 1 tenant ... a tenant that the fire department
did not find for 40 minutes
no call for a comprehensive study of safety issues in aha buildings
widespread corruption in the local tenant organizations ... all they
care about is having the aha pay for their parties .... tenant
association presidents secretly signed off on annual housing plan with
no discussion among the tenants
its not much of a stretch to see how widespread corruption in the
tenant organizations leads to widespread corruption in the housing
authority .... and their real lack of concern for the well being of
the tenants
note ... the aha is a sub unit of the dhcd ... dhcd is the monstrous
statewide bureacracy that gets off on fucking with poor elderly folks
and poor minority folks
