AHA News

AHA recognized Susan Walsh, Hamilton County Director of Community Development, with a Career Achievement Award, June 2011. "During her career, Susan Walsh has overseen the creation of numerous units of affordable housing to meet the needs of residents of Hamilton County. She is fair and respectful to everyone, whether they are a low-income tenant, a local government official, or a private developer. Her quiet competency, knowledge of the rules governing housing programs, and openness to new ideas has made her effective and productive. Her retirement later this year will leave a huge hole for the county."
