SEATTLE—April
26, 2004—The
scattered sites program was established in 1978 to locate
lower-density public housing throughout the city. Today SHA operates 787 units in single family, duplex, triplex
and small multifamily buildings through this program.
The
Housing Authority will maintain its commitment to the
Scattered- Sites program into the future by making some
adjustments to the portfolio over the next few years. This
will mean selling some of the current units and replacing
them with units that better fit the portfolio. For
