- Description:
- The document discusses the need for federal administrators and Cherokee Housing Authorities to re-examine their motives and ensure they are enforcing the law and abiding by the spirit of legislation. There are concerns about unnecessary items in new homes, improving housing delivery, economic qualifications for housing, funding arrangements, technical assistance, and the need for a more realistic approach to determining qualifications. Recommendations include establishing an Indian Desk at the area HUD office, developing prototype houses, and streamlining procedures for construction approval. There is also a call for additional programs, congressional hearings in Oklahoma, and relief rates for mutual help housing.
