Who: Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs (TDHCA)
What: Spent about $135 million, just one third of the$440.4 million in federal funds it received to help low-income residents rebuild homes damaged or destroyed by Hurricane Rita almost four years ago.
Why it’s an outrage: Owners had to wait so long for funds that the cost of repairing many homes damaged by Rita increased dramatically because the dwellings suffered additional damage from rainstorms.
Where to vent: Call TDHCA’s Office of Public Affairs at512-475-4542.
