It’s been about 5 years since people were allowed to apply for Section 8, so this is a HUGE deal in the housing world. Here are the highlights of their announcement:
Dane County Housing Authority is reopening their Section 8 waiting list starting July 30, 2007. Applications can be picked up at their office (2001 W Broadway, Suite 1, Monona, WI 53703) between 9:00 and 4:00. Applications can also be downloaded from the website www.dcha.net starting July 30, 2007
A date has not been set to close the waiting list but it will NOT be open for an indefinite period of time. ( i.e. do this asap!)
Some helpful suggestions they sent:
1. Incomplete applications will not be processed, they will be returned for completion.
2. Make sure you complete and sign all the attached forms.
3. Do not call and ask how long it will take to come to the top of the list or where you are on the list, as they will not know the answer.
4. They will not accept faxed applications.
5. Applications must be returned by mail to: Dane County Housing Authority, P.O. Box 6097, Monona, WI 53716-0097. Applications will not be accepted at the office.
