Public Hearing Notice – Annual Plan Amendment

The Board of Commissioners of the Columbia Housing Authority (CHA) is requesting public comment on a significant amendment to the CHA’s FYE2015 Annual PHA Plan and Five Year Plan.

The significant amendment deals with the CHA’s plans to make renovations to all 719 units of Public Housing using the HUD Rental Assistance Demonstration (RAD) Program. The RAD program will convert current CHA Public Housing operating subsidies and capital projects funding to the more stable Project-Based Housing Choice Voucher Program.  This will allow the CHA to be more competitive in applying for the Low-Income Housing Tax Credits that are necessary to finance the renovation of our aging Public Housing stock.
