A mom living in public housing said she needs to use an umbrella to shield herself and her daughter from leaks in the bedroom and living room.
Chinesta Jenkins said the leaks have been a problem in their Albany Houses home for years. She said when she puts in repair tickets with the New York City Housing Authority, crews come, but they don't fix the problem.
