CHA staff and contractors have repaired the fire prevention system and installed a temporary boiler to provide hot water at Patrick Sullivan Apartments. A new permanent unit will be installed within the next two weeks. City of Chicago building inspectors cleared the building for occupancy this morning and all residents returned to their homes this afternoon.
“I want to thank all the CHA staff, particularly those in our Property and Resident Services Departments, as well as our Private Property Management partners at WinnResidential, and our Resident Services Coordinators from Metropolitan Family Services, for navigating this unexpected challenge over these past few days. It was truly a team effort and a testament to the good work of Team CHA,” said CHA Interim Chief Executive Officer Angela Hurlock. “Most of all, we are extremely grateful to all the Patrick Sullivan residents for their patience, flexibility and overall positivity during a trying time.”
