Description
Argued May 21, 2003 Opinion The dispositive issue in this appeal 1 is whether the plaintiffs, Edgewood Village, Inc., and Edgewood Neighborhood Association, Inc., are aggrieved, and therefore have standing, to challenge the actions of the defendant, the housing authority of the city of New Haven (housing authority), pertaining to its acquisition of certain property for use as scattered site public housing pursuant to its authority under General Statutes (Rev. to 1997) § 8-44. 2 The plaintiffs appeal from the judgment of the trial court dismissing their action against the housing authority and the intervening defendant, Gracie White, a tenant of the housing authority, due to lack of subject matter jurisdiction. The plaintiffs claim that the trial court improperly determined that they were not aggrieved by the housing authority's defective notice of a public hearing prior to its acquisition of the subject property. We affirm the judgment of the trial court. The record reveals the following facts and procedural history. In 1991, several individuals brought an action against the housing authority and the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development alleging that they had violated federal housing law by failing to provide scattered site housing 3 in New Haven to replace a demolished multiunit public housing project. See Christian Community Action, Inc. v. Cisneros, United States District Court, Docket No. 3:91CV00296 (AVC) (D. Conn. May 11, 1995). In 1995, the parties settled the case. Under the settlement agreement, the housing authority was required to provide scattered site units outside minority concentration areas.
