The Formal Hearing Panel is made up of three (3) persons as follows:
  • One representative from the CHA Board of Commissioners;
  • One representative from the Columbia community; and
  • One representative that lives in Public Housing.
The Formal Hearing Panel conducts hearings related to the termination of housing assistance for persons living in public housing or receiving Section 8 housing assistance.
Hearing panel members must be willing to make difficult decisions that often affect the lives and housing of the persons requesting a hearing. These decisions also impact the lives of other public housing residents, neighbors and landlords.
