General information and Eligibility:
The property was funded with two different kinds of funding: Low Income Housing Tax Credits (LIHTC) and Section 8 Project-Based Rental Assistance (PBRA). To be eligible for a unit, you must meet eligibility for both LIHTC and PBRA. The Tenant Selection Plan will help you see if you are eligible. If you have questions about anything in this plan, please ask the Property Management Coordinator.
To be eligible, the head of household, co-head of household, or spouse must be 62+ at time of move-in, and annual household income must be at or less than the following income limits. Applicants must be 60+ to apply.
Reasonable Accommodations:
If an applicant or resident indicates that an exception, change, or adjustment to a rule, policy, practice, service, or physical structure is needed because of a disability or medical need, SHA will treat the information as a request for reasonable accommodation. SHA provides a Request for Reasonable Accommodation form for this purpose, but SHA will consider requests any time the family indicates that an accommodation is needed whether a formal written request is submitted. The family must explain what type of accommodation is needed to provide the person with the disability or medical need full access to SHA’s programs and services. If the need for the accommodation is not readily apparent or known to SHA, the family must explain the relationship between the requested accommodation and the disability. Additionally, if the family indicates that an accommodation is required for a disability that is not obvious or otherwise known to SHA, SHA must verify that the person meets the definition of a person with a disability, and that the accommodation is necessary to accommodate the disability or medical need.
Please contact the Property Management Coordinator for this property if you have questions regarding reasonable accommodations.
