Description:

The document is a series of letters and communications regarding the need for a "cancellation clause" in construction contracts for mutual help housing projects. The Chickasaw Housing Authority in Ada, Oklahoma expressed concerns about delays in construction and the inability to cancel contracts with underperforming contractors. The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) is reviewing the issue and taking steps to ensure projects proceed on schedule. Warren Watkins, legal counsel for HUD, also inquired about non-Indian people qualifying for mutual help housing.
