Public housing tenants living in elderly/disabled housing are permitted to keep no more than 1 dog or 1 cat per unit. No more than two small, caged birds may be kept in any unit. An aquarium for fish may not exceed 10 gallons. No more than two (2) small animals, i.e. gerbil or hamster, may be kept in any unit. Small animals must be kept in a cage at all times. No exotic, wild or dangerous animals, snakes or any other animal not permitted in residential units by state or local laws, ordinances or this policy may be kept by tenants. No pet’s mature growth shall exceed 18 inches in height, measured from ground to shoulder, nor weigh more than 30 pounds. A refundable pet deposit will be charged for each dwelling unit where a dog or cat resides. The pet deposit will be equal to one months rent with minimum of $50 and a maximum of $100. Dogs and cats are required to be spayed or neutered. Dogs and cats must have the proper inoculations required by law, and be certified by a veterinarian licensed to practice in the State of Colorado. This policy does not apply to assistance animals that assist persons with disabilities.
Since this property has received funding in part through the Low Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) program, a certain number of units are set aside for lower income households. Households must earn either less than 50% or 60% of the area median income (depending on the set-aside option chosen by the property owner) to qualify for these units. Rents in these units are capped at a maximum of 30% of the set-aside area median income (adjusted for unit size). Some rental units in this property may not be subject to LIHTC and therefore have higher rents and no maximum household income requirement.
Since this property is owned and managed by a Public Housing Authority, all of the rents at this property are based on tenant incomes. Tenants will make a monthly contribution toward rent equal to 30% of their adjusted income. A housing authority may establish a minimum rent of up to $50.
