(DNAINFO) Allegra Hobbs | September 1, 2016 — Yolanda Donato had submitted a doctor’s note detailing the importance of the mold removal to her health.
A woman who suffers from asthma and health problems stemming from multiple liver transplants may finally breathe freely as NYCHA promises to address leaks, mold and two gaping holes in her bathroom wall — more than a year after she first complained about the purportedly hazardous conditions.
Yolanda Donato, a resident of the Jacob Riis Houses for nearly four decades, said she has been battling with NYCHA since early 2015 over plumbing leaks and suspected mold in her bathroom.
