WPCNR CITY HALL CIRCUIT. By John F. Bailey. August 19, 2005: Mack Carter, Executive Director of the White Plains Housing Authority, announced to WPCNR Thursday evening that the bonding company on the new WPHA Headquarters project had found a new contractor to resume work on the Headquarters wing being constructed at 223 Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Boulevard. No work has been done on the project for five months, since the original contractor stopped work on the project. 

The Housing Authority has explored litigation and contractual issues with the bonding company on the project during that time. Carter said agreement was reached with the bonding company Thursday afternoon at 4 P.M., and that papers and legal agreements had to be signed. He said he expected to announce the contractor next week and afterwards work would resume. Carter said he expected the new contractor to resume work on project in a month. The project is now about 50% completed and three months behind schedule. He could not, he said, reveal any more about the details at this time.
