Letter to the editor: Summit should find a new affordable housing company
Breckenridge
I am writing to second the letter from Dale and Mary Ann Louis that appeared in the Oct. 30 Summit Daily News calling for the removal and future ban of Gorman & Co. from workforce housing projects.
Affordable workforce housing has been a primary issue in Summit County for a number of years now, and most or all of the people involved with running the county government have spoken repeatedly about supporting efforts aimed at resolving this issue. What Gorman & Co. did to the people who were anticipating moving in to Vista Verde is an greedy and egregious contradiction of public faith, and if the authorities who manage workforce housing projects have any intention of standing behind what they publicly say, Gorman & Co. should be told to pack up their tool boxes and head on down the road.
