The director of the Philadelphia Housing Authority could lose his $350,000-a-year job over a string of secret sexual harassment cases.
Support for veteran director Carl Greene is waning among board members who oversee the nation's fourth largest public housing agency.
Greene, 53, has also faced a threatened foreclosure on his luxury home and an IRS tax lien this year.
Board chairman and former mayor John Street says he had no idea the agency had settled at least four sexual harassment complaints involving Greene.
Street says he presumes the executive housing director is no longer fit for the job.
The board will discuss Greene's 12-year tenure at private and public meetings Thursday.
Greene has taken leave through mid-September to battle stress.
