Affordable properties are at risk of being redeveloped as market pressures increase, according to a report presented to City of Decatur Commissioners.

The report examined Naturally Occurring Affordable Housing (NOAH) and was created in collaboration with Atlanta Regional Commission and Georgia Conservancy.

The project looked at methods to preserve affordable housing options through energy and sustainability updates.

Larry Padilla, CEO of the Decatur Housing Authority, joined Decatur Dish to talk about the current state of affordable housing. 

Decatur Dish, co-hosted by journalists Dan Whisenhunt and Mariya Murrow, airs every Thursday on ANF+ at 11:30 a.m.
