Goetz, Edward G2019-07-102019-07-102001https://hdl.handle.net/11299/204432In July 1992, attorneys for the Minnesota Legal Aid Society and the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) filed suit in federal district court on behalf of a group of plaintiffs living in public housing in Minneapolis alleging that the public housing and Section 8 programs in the city perpetuated racial and low-income segregation. The co-defendants in the Hollman v. Cisneros lawsuit offered to enter into settlement negotiations with the plaintiffs, and in April 1995, a consent decree was signed that committed the co-defendants to a series of dramatic policy changes aimed at deconcentrating family public housing in Minneapolis. In 1999, CURA was contracted by the nonprofit Family Housing Fund and the State of Minnesota to conduct an evaluation of the implementation of the Hollman consent decree. The findings of the three-year evaluation are presented in a series of eight reports, which conclude that the implementation of the consent decree produced mixed results with respect to the construction of replacement housing units, the reductions of race and poverty concentration in public housing in the Twin Cities, and the use of special mobility certificates made available by the decree. This report, the fifth in the series, discusses the outcomes of the relocation of families living in the north side public housing that was demolished between 1996 and 2000. Based on Minneapolis Public Housing Authority files, the report documents where each family moved. Census data are used to compare new neighborhood characteristics with conditions that existed in the census tracts that made up the Hollman site.enAfrican AmericansBlacksHollman v CisnerosLow-Income GroupsMetropolitan CouncilMinneapolisMinoritiesMinneapolis Community Development Agency (MCDA)Minneapolis Public Housing Authority (MPHA)Northside NeighborhoodPublic HousingPublic PolicyRaceRacialSection 8SegregationSoutheast AsiansSuburbsUrban RenewalUS Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD)Report
