They're not fancy but they're designed to be functional and affordable.Bove, who's family is better known for their pasta sauce business, is one of the bigger landlords in Vermont. He has more than 400 units across multiple towns. But a joint investigation by VPR and Seven Days has found that Bove frequently neglects routine maintenance, including serious health and safety issues - leaving tenants in substandard housing. The news organizations also found that regulators have failed to consistently enforce housing standards while Bove continues to receive public subsidies.Wed, 03 Nov 2021 15:39:46 GMT/vpr-news/2021-11-03/roaches-and-broken-locks-mark-and-rick-boves-growing-empire-of-affordable-rentals-vexes-code-enforcersLiam Elder-Connors, Derek Brouwer (Seven Days)Locked Down, Masked Up: Working Through A Tiny Group Home's Outbreak
