Available Now For Public Comment


The Peoria Housing Authority (PHA) is amending the Admissions and Continued Occupancy Policy to replace the current Chapter 10, Eligibility for Admissions and Chapter 11, Managing the Wait List, to reflect the new revised chapters and language, Chapter 3, Eligibility and Chapter 4, Applications, Waiting List and Tenant Selections.

The current Admissions and Occupancy Plan (ACOP) Chapter 10, Eligibility for Admissions and Chapter 11, Managing the Wait List, contains language that are not in accordance to the Department of Housing and Urban Development Code of Federal Regulations. The ACOP that is now in effect was last revised and approved by the Peoria Housing Authority Board of Commissioners in August 2004. There have since been many policy changes and updates that are not reflected in the current chapters. Therefore, the Administration has revised language and chapters that will now be numbered as Chapter 3, Eligibility and Chapter 4, Applications, Waiting List and Tenant Selection, which includes the most recent updates of the Code of Federal Regulations.

The revisions will be available for review from Thursday, December 1, 2011 through Saturday, December 31, 2011 for a 30 day comment period.
