Inspection – Tenant Fail Item Review |
In order to improve consistency in our inspections, we are working on developing a list of failed inspection items that would be considered “Tenant” fail items. If there are additional items that you would want the Housing Authority to consider “Tenant” fail items, please email Mike.Eddins@dekalbhousing.org.
- Missing outlets and switch covers
- Missing door knobs
- Wall/door/cabinet damage – holes, missing hardware, graffiti
- Housekeeping – carpet cleaning, floor cleaning, stove cleaning
- Broken windows
- Smoke detector batteries
- Mildew on tub, shower walls or ceiling in the bathroom
- Broken or missing light globes
- Car parked off pavement in the yard
- Unregistered or inoperable vehicles
- Garbage in the yard
- Unmaintained yard
Additionally: if there are inspection issues at the property resulting in the issuance of multiple citations by DeKalb County Code Enforcement, we may propose to terminate the family’s voucher or terminate the property owner’s contract and ban the unit from participating in the program in the future. |
The HADC is now encouraging all of our property owners to list their properties on the listing service, www.gosection8.com. This site is intended to provide a better service to both our property owners and our families. |
Effective July 1, 2017, all participants will be required to report all new employment from every adult household member to their caseworker within 10 business days from the start of new employment. All families who start new employment will receive a rent adjustment to include the new income when determining the family's rent amount.
