PHILADELPHIA, April 25, 2024—Adrianne Todman, the Acting Secretary of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), traveled to Philadelphia, PA, to celebrate the Philadelphia Housing Authority and Biden-Harris Administration’s work to support housing that is both affordable and sustainable. During Earth Week this year, HUD and the entire Biden-Harris Administration marked achievements in supporting energy efficiency, climate resilience, and sustainability across the country.
“We know that as our country invests in sustainable housing, low-income and disadvantaged communities are often left behind. Under this Administration, we have invested billions to ensure that affordable housing is similarly efficient, resilient, and sustainable,” said HUD Acting Secretary Adrianne Todman. “It’s my honor to be here with our partners in Philadelphia during Earth Week to celebrate their achievements as we look to build America’s green future.”
Acting Secretary Todman joined U.S. Rep. Dwight Evans (PA-03), State Sen. Sharif Street, State Rep. Donna Bullock, Philadelphia City Councilman Jeffery Young, Aren Platt, Chief Deputy Mayor of Planning and Strategic Initiatives, and Kelvin A. Jeremiah, the President & CEO of the Philadelphia Housing Authority, at the 83-Development, an Energy Star and Green Community-certified new development, which serves 83 new units and a new street. HUD funds helped build this TTK leverages grant, loan, tax abatement, and mortgage buy-down programs offered by the City of Philadelphia, PHDC, and TTK Preferred Lenders to save homebuyers up to $75K or more.
