Residents living in an affordable housing complex in Perinton are speaking out about filthy conditions.

They worry their complaints about rodents, mold and water damage are being ignored. Now, there is a deadline for residents to address concerns.

Nelifar Farzad says throwing out dead mice in traps has become part of her daily routine while living at the Pines of Perinton.

"It's been hell, it’s been a complete hell," Farzad said.

Only new housing going up in my Upstate NY neck of the woods is Sec 8.

Yep. Coming to a suburb near you... Zoning changes to plop subsidized tenements next door to your single family house.

From yesterday...

Mice, mold, bugs: Pines of Perinton fire sheds light on long-time issues at apartment complex

Note to the residents, a quote from Ronald Reagan:

"The nine most terrifying words in the English language are: I'm from the Government, and I'm here to help. "

Now which part of that do you not get?

Last I knew Hochul’s masters thought better of that accessory dwelling proposal, at least for now.

So that’s some good news.

CT is in the midst of flooding its nicest towns with “affordable” housing that local municipalities have no control over.

While I have no doubt the place doe snot receive the needed maintenance I also have no doubt the majority of the people living there are even worse about their lifestyle.

I am sure they leave garbage in the halls and on the street, do nothing to clean their own living space and most spend time in either a drug addle stupor or a booze laden coma.

Culture matters. There are good people trying their I am sure but many live in filth and only want to play the victim looking for their next opportunity to grift.

For now. The left never stops marching. They have defacto rental control statewide legislation looming right now called “Good Cause Eviction” regulation. In theory, a taking and permanent eviction moratorium.

Yes, I used to work for Section 8 and public housing. I would say 90% are bad apples. That also includes the case workers/administration. One locally is going to jail for siphoning funds under false pretenses.

No health inspectors? They’d have a field day with that.

Exactly. I challenge ANYONE to walk down the hallway of any section 8 project and not find it reeking of marijuana.
There is always garbage in the halls, the dumpsters piled high
overflowing with the trash of booze containers and vomit in the staircases.

I am not exaggerating.

If you think that, you'd be wrong. This is public sector housing.

And I'll throw this in for giggles, from nearby Erie County, and the headline puts it mildly...

The Pox on Perinton is a disaster area.

My wife’s parents developed quite the nice rental house empire over 50+ years. They determined early on they wanted nothing to do with Section 8 money.

California state has effectively taken over all local zoning laws. You can now demolish your tract house on your quarter acre lot and build TWO new house, each with an in law house behind it (an “ADU”). So you go from a spacious R1 residential neighborhood to FOUR houses on that quarter acre with eight cars parked on the street.

Yep, there is good and competent affordable rent housing, none of it is section 8 though.
