The deteriorating condition of apartments at Dunbar Village and what should be done about them will be the topic of a housing authority meeting today. Housing authority Executive Director Laurel Robinson said rain seeps in too many of the 245 apartments.
Walls show severe cracking.
Erosion eats at the foundation. Dunbar, which opened in 1939 as the county's first public housing, has simply outlived its natural life span, Robinson said. Another option would be to repair them. The housing authority administrative offices would be moved from 3801 Georgia Ave. The housing authority could apply for a similar grant for Dunbar Village if the agency can prove that it is no longer feasible to maintain it.
