The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) has posted the Choice Neighborhood FY10 Notice of Funding Availability Pre-Notice. It gives potential applicants guidance prior to the Choice Neighborhoods funding notice, which will be published this summer.

The Huffington Post yesterday published a piece by Deborah De Santis, President/CEO of the Corporation for Supportive Housing, titled "Honoring our Veterans can Begin With Housing."

Three VHFA staff members will be honored during the Housing Credit Conference coming to Chicago, Ill.

VHFA will start requiring multifamily properties provide proof property owners/managers have filed annual compliance statements with the Vermont Department of Health regarding essential maintenance practices (EMP).

In an effort to reduce exposure to harmful lead, owners and managers must complete EMP in all rental housing built before 1978 and file annual compliance statements with the Vermont Department of Health.
