Short-sightedness May Hurt Seniors and Working Poor

Steve Chambers of the Star Ledger writes Affordable housing in NJ nears its sunset. New Jersey, like other states, offered developers breaks to keep housing affordable for ten to thirty years. The affordable housing helped to assist senior citizens and working class families. Now that the term is ending these communities could see increases in their living space costs. The expiring contracts cover housing projects, assisted living units, section 8, and sections 202 and 515 housing loans. One wonders why 10-30 years rather than a permanent solution.
