Senator Bartlett responded, stating that there are 463 applications ahead of hers and it is uncertain when she might receive a house.

The Comanche Housing Authority was identified as the most likely to complete the project, while other authorities were facing issues such as misappropriation of funds. HUD's role was to make houses available, and they were working with the Comanches to move the project forward.
