For every year between 2012 and 2018, I am requesting:

1) the number of people on the public housing waiting list each year
2) if the data is available, number of people on the public housing waiting list each month
3) the number of people moved off the waiting list and into public housing each year

Let me know if you have any questions, please feel free to call my cell at 781-941-0829.

Best,
Ava Sasani

The requested documents will be made available to the general public, and this request is not being made for commercial purposes.

In the event that there are fees, I would be grateful if you would inform me of the total charges in advance of fulfilling my request. I would prefer the request filled electronically, by e-mail attachment if available or CD-ROM if not.

Thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation in this matter. I look forward to receiving your response to this request within 7 business days, as the statute requires.

Sincerely,

Ava Sasani

Dear Karl,

Thanks so much for your email. Forgive my confusion, I just wanted to clarify something really quickly?

If there were 960 people on the PH waiting list in 2012, and 272 people moved off the list, how were there only 234 people on the wait list the next year, in 2013? 960-272 people=688 people remaining on the waiting list at the end of 2012, so why is the number at the start of 2013 about 1/3 of that?

Any clarification would be really helpful, thanks so much for your time!

Best,
Ava
