Brush College Village is a 22-unit property in West Salem:

The property was funded with two different kinds of funding: Low Income Housing Tax Credits (LIHTC) and Section 8 Project-Based Rental Assistance (PBRA). To be eligible for a unit, you must meet eligibility for both LIHTC and PBRA. The Tenant Selection Plan will help you see if you are eligible.

Tenant Rent and Utilities

Rent at this property is based on household income. Tenants pay 30% of their adjusted monthly income, minus an allowance for electricity, water, and sewer. Trash collection is included in the rent. Tenants have the option of paying for phone, internet, and cable television at their own expense.

Reasonable Accommodations:

If an applicant or resident indicates that an exception, change, or adjustment to a rule, policy, practice, service, or physical structure is needed because of a disability or medical need, SHA will treat the information as a request for reasonable accommodation. SHA provides a Request for Reasonable Accommodation form for this purpose, but SHA will consider requests any time the family indicates that an accommodation is needed, whether a formal written request is submitted. The family must explain what type of accommodation is needed to provide the person with the disability or medical need full access to SHA’s programs and services. If the need for the accommodation is not readily apparent or known to SHA, the family must explain the relationship between the requested accommodation and the disability. Additionally, if the family indicates that an accommodation is required for a disability that is not obvious or otherwise known to SHA, SHA must verify that the person meets the definition of a person with a disability, and that the accommodation is necessary to accommodate the disability or medical need.

Please contact the Property Management Coordinator for this property if you have questions regarding reasonable accommodations.

Application and Waiting List Procedure

When the waiting list is open, applications are completed online at https://www.salemhousingor.com/apply. Applicants are placed on the waiting list for the appropriate unit size(s) (see Occupancy Policy, below) in chronological order, by the date and time the applications are received. Applicants are not placed on the waiting list if their application is not complete.

Exceptions are made to the order of processing applications when necessary to fulfill project-specific or income targeting requirements. HUD income targeting requirements require that 40% of all units at the project that come available for occupancy in any fiscal year be rented to qualified households whose income falls at or below 30% of Area Median Income (AMI) for the area in which the property is located. This property is in HUD’s designated Salem, Oregon Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA). If property admissions fall below this 40% requirement, households with incomes below 30% (AMI) will be selected from the waiting list before higher income applicants. Once the requirement is met, the higher income applicants resume their original place on the waiting list.

Salem Housing Authority will contact applicants periodically by mail to confirm their continued desire to be on the waiting list. Applicants must respond by the due date in the notice to remain on the waiting list.

Applicants are required to report changes in mailing address, household composition, and income in writing. If mail is returned undeliverable by the US Post Office, the applicant will be removed from the waiting list. Changes can be reported online by clicking the “Household Update” button at www.salemhousingor.com.

Ten of the units at Brush College Village will be rented to households with annual income up to 40% of the Area Median Income. The remaining units will be rented to households earning up to 60% of the Area Median Income.

Income limits are based on the number of family members in the unit. Income eligibility is determined by comparing the household’s annual income to the current applicable HUD and LIHTC income limits. These limits are established by HUD for the area (County or Metropolitan Statistical Area) where the project is located and are updated annually. They are available from the local HUD office or on-line at www.huduser.org. Income of all persons residing in the unit is counted, with the inclusions and exceptions noted in 24 CFR 5.609 (c).
