HUD CASE NUMBER: 05-08-0787-6Voluntary Compliance Agreement • May 21st, 2009
On or about March 31, 2008, Angela and Brian Scherer, filed complaints with the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development ("Department" or "HUD") alleging that Wayne County Housing Authority (“WCHA” or “Recipient”), Jill Masterson, individually and as the executive director of WCHA, and Danna Sutton, individually and as the assistant director of WCHA, violated the Fair Housing Act as amended in 1998, 42 U.S.C. § 3601 et seq. (the “Act”). WCHA is a public housing authority that receives federal financial assistance through an Annual Contributions Contract with HUD. WCHA uses this funding, in part, to finance the Section 8 voucher program. Because WCHA is a recipient of federal financial assistance, a complaint was also filed under Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (“Title VI”), Case Number 05-08-0787-6. Title VI prohibits discrimination on the basis of race, color, or national origin in programs and activities receiving federal financial assistance.
