West Chester, PA, September 11, 2025 --(PR.com)-- On Tuesday, August 12, the Housing Authority of the County of Chester (HACC), led by CEO Paul Diggs, held a series of on-site meetings to inform residents, local officials, and community stakeholders about the stages of HACC’s ongoing property redevelopment process.

Partnering with Kris Warren, Senior Vice President of CVR Associates, Paul Diggs and the HACC team engaged directly with residents in a full day of meetings held across multiple Chester County communities. Sessions were hosted at:

· Oxford Terrace Community Center - 10:00 AM
· Kings Terrace Community Center - 1:00 PM
· Church Street Towers Community Center - 3:30 PM
· Church, Maple, & Spruce (The Melton Center) - 5:00 PM

More than 100 residents and stakeholders attended the sessions, which included presentations on current redevelopment progress, anticipated timelines, and an open Q&A discussion to address resident concerns.

“While many properties are in need of redevelopment and HUD is experiencing years of backlog, HACC is taking a proactive approach to ensure our programs, facilities, and services continue to meet the needs of Chester County families now and in the future,” said Paul Diggs, CEO of HACC.

The redevelopment process may temporarily displace some residents to alternative housing. To help support this transition, HACC is seeking landlords interested in providing six-month leases during construction. In addition, HACC welcomes ongoing partnerships with landlords who have properties available throughout Chester County.

“Our focus is to keep residents informed, engaged, and supported every step of the way,” added Diggs. “By working together with community partners and landlords, we can make this transition smooth while building a stronger housing future for Chester County.”
