The incentive package should incorporate the following options: • Align and streamline the current city-mandated inspections with the HUD-mandated Housing Choice Voucher inspections; • Waive various permits and inspection costs for apartment owners who accept Housing Choice Vouchers; • Create a Damage Mitigation Fund which provides financial assistance to landlords to mitigate damage caused by tenants during their occupancy under the Housing Choice Voucher Program; • Provide landlords vacancy payments to hold units while the landlord is going through the Housing Choice Voucher Program approval process.Tue, 22 Jan 2019 23:22:33 GMT
