Federal tenant-based rental assistance is provided primarily through HUD’s Housing Choice Voucher (HCV) program . The program is implemented by local and state public housing agencies. Voucher holders receive a subsidy that they can use at any privately owned rental unit that meets program guidelines and has an owner willing to participate in the program. Because the assistance moves with the household, rather than remaining attached to a particular unit, tenant-based rental assistance can be a particularly effective tool for increasing low-income families’ access to low-poverty, resource-rich neighborhoods.
For Voucher Participants:
October 10, 2018 – November 1, 2018
The Housing Authority of the City of Daytona Beach is updating its Waiting Lists for both the Housing Choice Voucher (Section 8) and Affordable (Public) Housing Waiting Lists.
On October 10, 2018, applicants will be mailed an Update Form to their address of record. To remain active on the waiting list, applicants are asked to indicate their continued interest in housing by returning the form to the housing authority by November 1, 2018.
If the Update letter is returned due to incorrect address, expired mail forwarding or other address update issues, or the applicant fails to return the form by the deadline; their application will be withdrawn.
Applicants that are withdrawn, will be required to reapply, by completing a new application at our website at www.dbhafl.org.
If you are a person with special needs, and/or need assistance in the completion of the Update Form, please contact our office at 386-253-5653. Thank you.
Housing Daytona Beach continues to make changes to its inspection practices that aim to reward owners with high-quality housing units while creating consequences for owners who have chronic difficulty in maintaining their units to an acceptable standardTBA
