Civil Rights - Housing Law - Effects of Racial Concentration in Renewal Area

Authors

Thomas A. Koza

Abstract

The United States Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit has held that the Department of Housing and Urban Development's approval of an urban renewal plan, by concentrating on land use factors without inquiry into the effects of the type of housing on racial concentration, does not comply with the Housing Act of 1949 and the Civil Rights Acts of 1964 and 1968.
