NACOGDOCHES – The City of Nacogdoches was made aware of a supposed Nacogdoches Housing Authority press release circulating over the weekend that announces a U.S Department of Housing & Development (HUD) housing project in close proximity to Nacogdoches High School. The release stated that site clearing for the project was already underway and promoted a completion date in January of 2028. This report is false, and the City of Nacogdoches is currently investigating to determine the origin of the press release and the individual(s) responsible for creating it. No such project has been proposed for review or approval by the City of Nacogdoches within the Nacogdoches city boundaries or extraterritorial jurisdiction.
The City of Nacogdoches places a high value in public trust, transparency in its information sharing processes and utilization of official city platforms and trusted news media sources to keep citizens informed.
