• Tenants demand ousting of South Tucson housing director (kold.com) — South Tucson tenants are pressing city leaders to remove the housing director, alleging harassment, retaliation, and unresolved problems like roaches, mold, and poor temperature control in Housing Authority units. Other residents and the vice mayor defend the director, saying funding limits and due process matter, and calling for a formal investigation whose results would be made public.
