They’re responding to news received late Monday afternoon by management offering to suspend rent payments for the hundreds of residents who can’t get inside.
Channel 2′s Veronica Griffin talked to residents who said the rent suspension and a $250 credit towards renter’s insurance deductibles offered by property management is a drop in the bucket.
“People’s deductibles are like $500 and even up to $1,000, $2,000. If anything, you want to help us, pay the deductible fully,” said Salik Van-Holton.
