The city and community leaders want Gov. Patrick to place the Chelsea Housing Authority in state receivership a week after revelations its former chief made a dishonest bundle running things: "...

McLaughlin, whose pay, perhaps the highest for any public housing official in the United States, had been approved by the authority’s five-member board." [Globe]
