TETON MESA APARTMENTS
INTRODUCTION: The procedures used for selection of residents shall be implemented in compliance with the applicable
local, state and federal statutes and regulations applicable to the development.
NON-DISCRIMINATION: The management agent shall comply with all federal, state and local fair housing and civil rights
laws and with all equal opportunity requirements as required by law, including without limitation HUD administrative
procedures. Federal laws forbid discrimination based on race, color, creed, religion, sex, age, disability, familial status, or
national origin. Discrimination against a particular social or economic class is also prohibited (for example: welfare
recipients; single parent households, etc.) These requirements apply to all aspects of tenant relations including without
limitation: accepting and processing applications, selecting residents from among eligible Applicants on the waiting list,
assigning units, certifying and re-certifying eligibility for assistance, granting accommodation and terminating tenancies.

Resident Selection Policy
Page 2 of 7
CHANGES IN INCOME OR FAMILY COMPOSITION FOR WAITING LIST APPLICANTS: If an Applicant’s
income changes to an amount which is no longer eligible under the limitations of the assistance program by the time the
application reaches the top of the waiting list, written notice will be given advising the Applicant that: (1) they are not
presently eligible; (2) the Applicant could become eligible if the household income decreases, the number of household
members changes, or the Income Limit changes, and (3) asks whether or not the Applicant wishes to remain on the waiting
list.
If an Applicant’s Family composition changes resulting in a need for a different apartment size, management will, upon
notification by Applicant, place the Family on the appropriate waiting list, maintaining their current waiting list status.
OCCUPANCY STANDARDS: Occupancy standards have been established to ensure that units are not overcrowded or
underutilized. The number of occupants in a unit must be in accordance with the occupancy standards as set forth by The
Housing Company based upon local law and Agency regulations. These occupancy standards are subject to change during
the lease term if changes in laws, ordinances, or regulations much such changes necessary. The minimum occupancy limit
will correspond to the number of bedrooms. The maximum occupancy limit will depend on local law and regulations, and
the square footage of usable sleeping areas as defined by local law and suggested Agency guidelines. Notwithstanding the
above, The Housing Company shall have the right to make reasonable accommodations for individuals with disabilities and
may adjust occupancy limits to further the goal of providing reasonable accommodations. Minimum and maximum limits are
as follows:
UNIT SIZE
MINIMUM
MAXIMUM
1
1
3
2
2
5
3
3
7
4
4
9
Generally, the presumptive standard is two (2) persons per bedroom. Household composition will be considered when
applying this general rule.
DETERMINING UNIT SIZE AT MOVE-IN FOR FEDERALLY ASSISTED UNITS: The management agent must
balance the need to avoid overcrowding with the need to make the best use of available space and to avoid unnecessary
subsidy in federally assisted units. To determine how many bedrooms a Family may have, the management agent shall count:
1.
all full-time members of the household;
2.
children who are away at school but live with the Family during school recesses;
3.
children who are subject to a joint custody agreement but live in the unit at least 50% of the time;
4.
an unborn child or children who are in the process of being adopted or whose custody is being obtained by an
adult;
5.
foster children or children who are temporarily absent due to placement in a foster home;
6.
live-in attendants; and
7.
foster adults.
The management agent shall not provide bedroom space for persons who are not members of the household, such as adult
children on active military duty, permanently institutionalized Family members or visitors.
OVERCROWDED OR UNDER-UTILIZED UNITS IN FEDERALLY ASSISTED UNITS: Units, which are smaller
or larger than needed by the Applicant, may be assigned if doing so will not cause serious overcrowding. The action may not
conflict with local codes. Larger units than indicated by the number of household members may only be issued if no units of
appropriate size are available. In such cases, the Family must agree to move to the correct sized unit, at its own expense,
when one becomes available. After move-in, if a unit becomes overcrowded or under-used because of changes in household
composition, the management agent will require the Family to move to an appropriate sized unit when one becomes available.
The decision regarding such transfers will be made subject to income eligibility rules and other applicable requirements of
governing regulations. In such instances, transfers will take priority over any preference or chronologically-placed Applicants
on the waiting list.
OVERCROWDED OR UNDER-UTILIZED UNITS IN MARKET-RATE UNITS: Management will use the
following criteria to determine over-crowded utilization for market rate units. In determining overcrowded status,
management will count:
1.
all full-time members of the household;
2.
children who are away at school but live with the Family during school recesses;
3.
children who are subject to a joint custody agreement but live in the unit at least 50% of the time;
Resident Selection Policy
Page 3 of 7
4.
an unborn child or children who are in the process of being adopted or whose custody is being obtained by an adult;
5.
foster children or children who are temporarily absent due to placement in a foster home;
6.
live-in attendants; and
7.
foster adults.
Under-utilization is not a consideration in a market rate apartment.
PREFERENCES: Management will observe preferences listed below. The number of preferences per household and then the
date/time the application was received determines the location on the wait list.
Preference will be given for a minimum of 60% of the units to persons who are on Public Housing Authority Waiting
Lists.
Waiting list preference in leasing will be given to persons with HUD Veterans Affairs Supportive Housing (VASH)
vouchers.
Permanent Supportive Housing.
Waiting list preference in leasing will be given to households that contain one or more members with a handicap as
defined in the Fair Housing Act.
Accommodation for Existing Residents: Requests for reasonable accommodation from existing residents requiring unit
transfers will take priority over all waiting list Applicants. Accommodation results when a third-party-verified disability
requires a change or repairs which make it easier for the existing resident to reside in the community. Reasonable costs
associated with unit transfers or repairs will be covered by management, unless doing so will cause an undue financial and
administrative burden.
Units Specifically Designed for Disabled or Handicapped Persons: When attempting to fill a unit that has features
designed to meet the needs of disabled persons, management will grant a preference to households with Disabled members
(who otherwise qualify) and need the accessible features of the unit. For example, units designed for accessibility to
individuals with mobility, hearing or vision impairments, will be rented to households that require the features provided in
those units. This preference will be granted upon proper notification by Applicant and verification of need by management.
Preference for Applicant’s Receiving Rental Assistance or who are on Housing Authority Waiting Lists for Rental
Assistance: Applicants who provide evidence that they are recipients of rental assistance or a statement from a public housing
authority indicating that they are on a waiting list for rental assistance will be given priority on the waiting list over applicants
who do not receive rental assistance or who are not on a housing authority waiting list. This preference will be given for
100% of the total residential units and applied first to applicants who have received rental assistance and secondly to
applicants who are on the waiting list.
Transfers for Existing Tenants: Regardless of the Rental Assistance Preference, no waiting list preference shall be granted
to households transferring between units in a specific apartment community or between apartment communities located
within the same market area which are owned or managed by The Housing Company. Households seeking such transfers
shall receive only chronological status on the waiting list.
PROCESSING STEPS: The development shall be rented and occupancy maintained on a first-come, first-served basis with
preferences taken into consideration. All persons wishing to be admitted to the development or placed on the waiting list must
complete an application, supply all documents required and pay an application fee. Prospective tenants submitting incomplete
applications will not be considered for occupancy. The initial application shall be timed and dated when received, and the
resident manager shall maintain at the rental office a chronological list of all Applicants (categorized on a bedroom size and,
when applicable, income target requirement). Applicants may be included on one or more waiting list, depending upon the
needs of the Family and management’s determination of overcrowding or under-utilization. Preference households and
existing residents requiring unit transfers because of accommodation will move ahead of chronological status Applicants.
Applicants shall be offered housing (after meeting all selection criteria requirements including the verification process),
placed on the waiting list, or declined. Potentially eligible Applicants who have met tenant selection criteria and for whom
the right size and/or income target unit is not available will be placed on the waiting list and contacted when an appropriate
unit becomes available. The Applicant must contact the development’s resident manager every 90 days to remain on the
waiting list. Applicants who fail to provide acceptable landlord references, credit history or who have a criminal background
will be notified that they have been removed from the waiting list.
When an appropriate unit is available, the waiting list shall be reviewed to identify the Applicant who meets preference
criteria or whose name is chronologically at the top of the list. The resident manager shall interview the Applicant; confirm
and update all information provided on the application; update credit reports older than one year; obtain current information
regarding income and Family composition as applicable and necessary to certify eligibility and determine resident’s rent
Resident Selection Policy

payment. The Applicant shall be informed that a final decision on eligibility cannot be made until all verifications are
complete and current income has been verified.
Applicants, whose position on the waiting list enables application processing, will receive only two consecutive notices of
housing availability. If the Applicant is unable or decides not to complete the application process, the Applicant shall be
removed from the waiting list upon receiving the second notice and must reapply for eligibility. The waiting list shall be
updated every three months and may be closed for one or more unit sizes when the average wait for admission is more than
a year.
Applicants for apartments funded solely with federal HOME funding will be required to supply a Social Security number
and verification of the same for each Family member, age six years or older.
SCREENING CRITERIA: The following factors shall be considered in screening Applicant for occupancy:
1.
Demonstrated ability to meet financial obligations and to pay rent on time.

History of disturbing neighbors or destroying property.

management deems that the Applicant is maintaining the apartment in a clean, safe and sanitary condition.

Applicant's history of meeting financial obligations including payments for rent, utilities, loans, revolving credit cards, and
other obligations. Applicant's credit history must be acceptable to management before they will be approved to occupy a unit.

credit history is one that reflects consistent, past-due payments of more than 90 days; a history of repeated insufficient fund
checks; derogatory credit (repossessions, foreclosures, judgments, collections, charge-offs, liens, bankruptcy not yet
discharged etc); delinquent or charge off debt due other apartment communities; or unpaid utility company collections which
would prohibit applicant from obtaining services. The lack of credit history or past due payments or derogatory credit relating
to medical expense or student loans will not be considered as grounds for declining an Applicant. Consideration will be
granted when current credit history demonstrates a pattern of improvement; history of rent payment overshadows other debt
issues or Applicant can demonstrate acceptable reasons for credit history. Applicants may wish to provide an explanation that
