Summary
Residents at the Hills at Hoover apartments are in crisis as water outages, failing AC units, and dangerous mold plague daily life—forcing families to seek alternatives for basic needs like showers and laundry. Michelle Carmichael, who moved in just weeks ago, suffered through broken AC repairs, mold that made her son sick, and lost belongings. Now, new management Carbon Residential, which took over in July 2016, is tackling a backlog of 300+ work orders, installing new HVAC systems, halting new leases, and allocating up to $2.3 million over six months to fix the complex. Crews are also working on water lines to restore pressure. While progress is being made, hundreds of issues remain—and residents wait for real relief.
