Hofmeister and the Town Board announced that the Islip Housing Authority's residents have responded to a survey conducted by the Public Housing Assessment System of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and rated Islip's public housing developments among the highest in the nation for maintenance and repair, communication, safety, services and appearance. The survey was sent randomly by HUD directly to residents and was returned anonymously to HUD.

"It is especially gratifying to see that those residents appreciate and acknowledge our diligence and attention in striving to meet their needs."
