Once the application has been completed, it can be mailed or hand delivered to the address listed above, from 9:00 am until 12:00 pm, Monday-Friday.


Documents are not needed at this time. But, if you would like to bring them to keep them file here is what will be needed: Social Security Cards and birth certificates for all household members, government issued IDs for all adult household members, SS/SSI/unemployment award letter (if applicable), proof of all other income.

Important note: Applicants who have been placed on the waiting list must inform the housing authority immediately if your application information changes (such as contact information, income, and household members).
