  9. Metro has designated that half of the 997 Public Housing units be assigned to <=30%MFI status. Clackamas County Commissioners, who control the Public Housing Authority of Clackamas County, have not divulged the future locations of these 499 Public Housing units nor have they informed voters where the existing <=30%MFI units are located. The other existing locations of Public Housing units identified as between 30% and 80% MFI are also being concealed from citizens.
