Since this property is a Section 811 property and includes rental assistance, it will tend to have a longer waiting list. Sometimes these waiting lists can be months or years long and may or may not be accepting new applicants. You should contact the property to verify.
Note: Affordable Housing Online has not confirmed the waiting list status directly with the property. This waiting list status forecast is based on our housing experts' knowledge of similar properties. You should always confirm this status directly with the property.
In 1992, a group of Palo Alto area parents of developmentally disabled children approached MidPen Housing Corp. to provide service-enriched housing for their adult children. Entering into a partnership with Silicon Valley Independent Living Center, MidPen developed Page Mill Court for very low-income adults with developmental disabilities who are able to live independently. Parca, a nonprofit agency, provides on-site services to the residents. A community building, computer center, common courtyard and outdoor spaces, as well as landscaped areas, provide places for resident gatherings and activities. The sound wall along Page Mill Road has been transformed into a ceramic tile mural designed by Ann Weber and supported by a grant from Varian Associates. Artists with disabilities created the tiles installed in the wall.
As a Section 811 property, this apartment community only allows persons with disabilities. A person of any age with a disability, and an income at or below 50% of the Area Median Income (AMI), qualifies for residency. In addition, Page Mill Court is highly desirable because it offers rent subsidies and will tend to have a longer waiting list. This program was first introduced in 1990, so these younger properties are generally in good condition. Since the property includes a rent subsidy, you would pay no more than 30% of your income toward rent. Most of these properties include a resident services coordinator that organizes and facilitates services like healthcare management, transportation, and social activities. If you are a low-income person with a disability and need some help maintaining independent living, this property might be right for you. Since this property participates in the HUD 811 program and has a property based subsidy, if you have a Section 8 voucher, you would have to give up your voucher to move in.
