The CHA plans to renovate all 719 of our Public Housing units in seven (7) phases from: 2014 – 2020. Rental Assistance Demonstration Program (RAD) – Convert to long-term contract rents – Project-Based Vouchers. Low-Income Housing Tax Credits (LIHTC) from MHDC – Combination of 4% & 9% credits. PUBLIC HOUSING RENOVATION
SLIDE 4 RAD - A new HUD Pilot Program
- Designed to encourage housing authorities to transition from
the public housing financial model to the more stable Project- Based Section 8 model.
Conversion to Long-Term Contract Rents
- The RAD Program allows housing authorities to convert their
unpredictable Public Housing subsidies to a long-term contract rent under the Project-Based Voucher Program (Section 8).
Substantial Renovation of Public Housing
- The RAD conversion is based on the CHA renovating current Public
Housing stock to a level that may be sustained for 15 to 20 years.

rehabilitation or construction will have a right to return to the development
- nce rehabilitation or construction is completed.
Renewal of Lease.
- Under RAD, the PHA must renew all leases upon lease expiration, unless
cause exists.
Phase-in of Tenant Rent Increases.
- If a tenant’s monthly rent increases by more than the greater of 10 percent
- r $25 purely as a result of conversion, the rent increase will be phased in
- ver 3 years, which a PHA may extend to 5 years.
SLIDE 8 Public Housing Family Self Sufficiency (PH FSS) and Resident Opportunities and Self Sufficiency Service Coordinator (ROSS- SC) programs.
- Current PH FSS participants will continue to be eligible for FSS once
their housing is converted under RAD. Current ROSS-SC grantees will be able to finish out their current ROSS-SC grants once their housing is converted under RAD.
Resident Participation and Funding.
- Residents of covered projects converting assistance to PBVs will have
the right to establish and operate a resident organization for the purpose of addressing issues related to their living environment and be eligible for resident participation funding.
SLIDE 9 Resident Choice and Mobility.
- One of the major benefits of the RAD program is that the
program greatly enhances the choice and mobility of Residents living in the converted Public Housing units.
- The units will be converted to Project-Based Vouchers (PBV), in
which residents may move out of the converted Public Housing development with housing assistance after living there for one year.
- Once this residency requirement has been met, the Resident
may be issued a Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher if they choose not to renew their lease. The Resident can use their voucher anywhere in Columbia and Boone County and may also “port-out” to another PHA with their voucher and continue to receive housing assistance through the new PHA.
