B. When a Resident to a Public Housing Rental Agreement dies, there is no one else with a Resident status on the Rental Agreement, and there is at least one adult Household Member in possession of the Residence, the Authority shall execute a new Public Housing Rental Agreement with the remaining family members, providing the remaining family members meet the then existing suitability admission requirements to the Authority’s public housing program. Specifically, without limitation, this shall require the processing of an application, and the passing of the Authority’s criminal screening procedures by all remaining adult Household Members. C. Where the Resident to a Public Housing Rental Agreement dies leaving only minor Household Members in possession of the Residence, the Authority shall execute a new Public Housing Rental Agreement with any court appointed guardian of such minors, providing such guardian, and their family (if any), meet the then existing admission requirements to the Authority’s public housing program. Specifically, without limitation, this shall require the processing of an application, and the passing of the Authority’s criminal screening procedures by all proposed adult occupants of the Residence. IX. THE RESIDENT IS PERMANTENTLY PLACED IN A NURSING/RETIREMENT HOME (BOARD & CARE) AND THE STATUS OF THE REMAINING HOUSEHOLD MEMBERS A. When a Resident to a Public Housing Rental Agreement is permanently placed in a Nursing/Retirement Home (Board & Care) and the Resident gives up his/her rights in writing, there is no one else with a Resident status on the Rental Agreement, and there is at least one adult Household Member in possession of the Residence, the Authority shall execute a new Public Housing Rental Agreement with the remaining family members, providing the remaining family members meet the then existing admission requirements to the Authority’s public housing program. Specifically, without limitation, this shall require the processing of an application, and the passing of the Authority’s criminal screening procedures by all remaining adult Household Members. X. LEASING OF UNITS A. General 1. A Rental Agreement will be entered into by SAHA and every family that will be admitted to a low-rent housing unit. The head of the household and the co-head (if any) will be required to sign the Agreement on behalf of the family. The Agreement will be kept current at all times and must be compatible with the SAHA policy and Texas and Federal law. B. Security Deposits 1. A security deposit shall be paid to the SAHA by the family at the time of admission. This amount must be paid in full at time of move in, unless the property manager has determined that due to hardship the applicant requested and was granted an installment payment agreement. a. Once paid, the security deposit will not be decreased. b. The security deposit shall be transferred without offset between units when a family is transferred between SAHA owned units. The cost of any repairs and clean up to the unit from which the family was transferred shall be charged to the Resident as an “Other Charge” under the lease agreement. c. Upon vacating a unit, other than a transfer between SAHA owned units, the security deposit shall be accounted for and returned in accordance with Texas State law. SAHA ACOP Page 39 of 46 1/2012
d. When the family’s Rental Agreement is terminated, voluntarily or involuntarily, the security deposit shall be returned to the resident if he/she gives at least 30 days notice in writing saying that he/she plans to move out. 2. The following will be withheld from the security deposit: a. Any unpaid rent or other charges due SAHA; b. Any charges for non-routine cleaning or for repairing or replacing damage or destruction caused by the resident; c. Charges for new keys to replace those not returned; d. Charges for stoves, refrigerators, or other SAHA property. e. The charges being withheld from a security deposit shall be itemized in a letter to the former resident sent to the current or last known address. 3. The Director of Public Housing may waive the security deposit for new admissions to a development in order to reduce excess vacancies within that development. This waiver may apply to 1 or more developments at a particular time. XI. PERIODIC REEXAMINATIONS A. Annual Reexaminations SAHA shall, at least once a year, reexamine complete an annual re-exam on all residents listed as having a status of “Family”, and biennial re-exams will be conducted on all resident with an “Elderly Family” status. Increases or decreases in the tenant rent as a result of regular reexaminations will be effective in accordance with the Master Reexamination Schedule. B. Special Reexaminations When it is not possible to estimate projected family income at the time of admission or annual reexamination, a temporary determination will be made with respect to income and a special reexamination will be scheduled. Special reexaminations will be scheduled every 30, 60, or 90 days until a reasonably accurate estimate of income can be made. Situations that would trigger a Special Reexamination would be: 1. When a family reports zero income or income less than $200 a month, or 2. When a family’s financial condition is expected to change (example – if a family member is on temporary disability or is expected to be employed). C. Interim Reexaminations 1. Any resident who has a decrease in annual income and who applies for a decrease in tenant rent shall be given an appropriate adjustment in conformance with the Rent Determination Procedures (Section III), and until the next annual reexamination must report all increases in his/her family’s income. However, where reported increases in the family’s income are so small that the cost of administratively processing the information in relationship to the anticipated increase in rent cannot be economically justified, no verification, processing or rent adjustment shall be made. For the purposes of this paragraph, a cumulative increase since the last adjustment, in family income of less than $200.00 a month shall be deemed too small to justify processing. 2. Exception: Resident whose welfare grant is decreased because of non-compliance sanction with TANF self-sufficiency or work requirements or fraud are not eligible for a rent reduction. D. Earned Income Disallowance (EID) 1. Simplified Earned Income Disregard (EID)- For families wishing to take advantage of the EID, they must agree to participate in the FSS Program if not already in the program, the disregard will consist of Yr. 1:100% of the earned income disregarded, Yr. 2: 50% of the earned income disregarded, Yr. 3: 25% of the income disregarded, Yr. 4: 20% SAHA ACOP Page 40 of 46 1/2012
