BHA submitted an application for a HUD designation called "Move to Work". Click here to view the Move to Work Application. The Berkeley Housing Authority (BHA) applied for HUD's Moving to Work (MTW) Demonstration Program, Cohort 4 "Landlord Incentives."

Comments were sent to bha@cityofberkeley.info on or before 5 p.m. on September 5, 2021. A Public Hearing was sent via zoom regarding the MTW application/plan during the September 8, 2021 BHA Board meeting at 5:30 p.m. There was also a Special Board meeting via Zoom, on Tuesday, September 28, 2021 at 4 p.m. for Board approval of the MTW application/plan.

BHA applied to the MTW focus area of Landlord Incentives - looking at ways to increase the number of landlords in our program, thereby increasing the number of available units for our Program Participants to live here in the City of Berkeley. HUD required applicants for MTW designation to reach out to our Program Participants to obtain input on the MTW application prior to submitting. There were two BHA Program Participant Hearings on MTW, via Zoom: Tuesday, May 18, 2021 and Tuesday, June 1, 2021, both at 10 a.m. Both meetings were held using the following link/call in number: |
