Leaking roofs continue to be an issue for neighbors at the complex in the Hogans Creek area. One resident who was too nervous to go on camera said it’s been a problem since she moved in roughly two months ago, but has gotten much worse from all the heavy rain.

She’s been using bowls and pots to collect the drops. At least six units have been condemned from issues and tarps were spotted over several buildings.

Other neighbors like Bryant Dubois said his friends have been dealing with issues.

“I spent the night with one of my friends. She had brain surgery on her head, the roof fell on her in her apartment,” he said.
