REAC INSPECTIONS: The REAC Inspections have been rescheduled for later dates. The inspections were not conducted due to the inspector not having access to required information from HUD. Once the inspector notifies us of the rescheduled dates, we will notify all residents. Pre-Inspections of units will be conducted by housing authority personnel; therefore, entrance into your apartment will be necessary.
