Pierce told Mobile City Council members at a committee meeting Tuesday that HUD has not wanted to spend money on upkeep since the homes in both developments are slated to be demolished.
Carroll also suggested that some residents are confused about what will happen to them in the future.“There are some individuals that don’t want to accept what is happening,” he said.
