Habitat Habitually Violates Existing Building Codes and Neighborhood Codes.
 
Wonder how they built so many houses without permits.  Wonder how so many
others passed inspection.  If Habitat comes to your neighborhood any time
soon you need to be vigilant.

"Give back for the holidays Since Katrina, New Orleans Area Habitat for
Humanity (NOAHH) has become the
leading home builder in the city."

Jer: I'm leery about this organization and wonder (from observation) about
its mission. 

I can recall when "expedited" to Georgia abruptly about how it operates.
Immediately after Katrina I begged this well-know organization for
consideration about qualifying for a Habitat home. I was denied because I
was not in the "strike zoned" state although they were building habitat
homes in the small town/area. The qualifying was for minorities and believe
it or not, the builders were overwhelmingly, Caucasian doing the work.

In attempting to return early to LA, I again notified, applied, etc. and
again I was denied. Again, all I saw were homes built around the New Orleans
area and again, --minorities were selected as homeowners. 

It begs the question. The release below mentions St. Bernard Parish. Is it
reasonable to ask whether the homes included anyone of the "Caucasian
Persuasion"? Are there homes being built in da parish's neighborhoods and
does anyone know if this theory/observation is disproved?

This writer is wondering as it appears to be more of a liberal attempt (in a
social-economic target) to appease minorities (which ideally is not only
inappropriate, it is wrong to target one culture over another in large
numbers, especially if one or many are getting a home and has not been a
former homeowner?

--I'm not only confused, but am trying to understand this organization's
mission--especially if it is true that the goal is minorities over anyone
else who qualifies.
