COLUMBIA - The Columbia City Council is set to meet at 7 p.m. Tuesday to discuss replacing downtown public housing units on Park Avenue.
The housing units would be renovated and run by Columbia Housing Authority (CHA), which has completed six low-income housing tax credit (LIHTC) projects in Columbia and renovated 597 public housing units since 2012.
The plan calls for CHA to demolish the 70 properties it currently owns and operates on East Park Avenue and build 79 new ones.
The older properties were built in 1964 and currently have collapsing sewer lines, foundation problems, electrical problems and a need for improved accessibility.
