On Tuesday, July 8^th at 4:30 PM, a contingent of Atlantic City Council Members, School Board Members, Mayor Lorenzo Langford, Members of the Stanley Holmes Village Tenants Association, Atlantic City Housing Authority Board Members and Executives, members of the Casino Reinvestment Development Authority, members of the Clergy, and a representative from the Atlantic City Police Department, will all be in attendance at a “Walk-Through” of the Stanley Holmes Village residences.

 

Warren Massey, an organizer of the event said, “we are determined to bring awareness to the deplorable living and other conditions presently existing within the Stanley Holmes Village”.

 

Massey also said, “We have significant concerns where it relates to the future of the Stanley Holmes Village and its residents”.

 

“The residents and other concerned individuals firmly believe that there is a specific agenda to permit the Stanley Holmes Village residences to deteriorate to the point where certain public officials will then move to tear it down and displace more than 455 families or at least 2000 residents of Atlantic City”, said Massey.

 

“We urge all members of the media to report on the truth and dilapidated living conditions presently being experienced by the residents of Stanley Holmes Village”, concluded Massey.
