REPORT OF THE

COMPTROLLER GENERAL

OF THE UNITED S TA TES


Elderly Tenants Housed

Out Of Turn And Questionable

Contracting Practices At The


Chicago Housi


ng Authority


Department of Housing

and Urban Development


Chicago Housing Authority practices in plac-
ing elderly tenants in public housing units
have sometimes resulted in applicants being
housed sooner than the authority's Depart-
ment-approved tenant selection plan and
Department regulations permitted. The
tenant selection plan is under revision be-
cause the Department believes that it vio-
lates the intent of the Civil Rights Act of
1964.

Fees paid by the authority for repair of
vandalized elevators--totaling $2.2 million in
1975--were not competitively established nor
negotiated. Also, the authority's two eleva-
tor repair contractors have been overcharging
for employee fringe benefits.
