Solomon, clinical professor at Yale Law School (pictured on the left, with Cruz), was executive director of HANH from August 1999 to June 2002. He’s been chairman of the board since 2003.

He offered this comment after his reelection; “It’s a privilege to have the opportunity to work with the people at the Housing Authority. Over the last ten years, we have developed Monterey, Quinnipiac, and other sites, housing conditions have been improved dramatically, and we have instituted strong systems of accountability. The staff at HANH has good reason to feel proud.”

In other personnel news, Jimmy Miller was re-upped for another year as deputy director of HANH for special projects. Miller, the former director of the agency, supervises real estate deals and long-range capital planning for HANH, most recently Eastview Terrace and the evolving re-development of West Rock.

His salary is to be $126,000

After the resolution authorizing the reappointment passed, Solomon said of Miller: “He’s saving us much more money than we are paying him.”
