Impact analysis
The cost of corrective actions, a forensic audit, and outside consulting is not fully quantified, but continued noncompliance could cost the agency control of its own operations.
Residents benefit if maintenance, inspections, and financial management actually improve.
Residents face the greatest risk if HUD takes over or if conditions and services continue to lag.
