Stakeholders
will consider changes to SHA's screening criteria at 9
a.m. meeting on Jan. 3
SEATTLE—January
2, 2008—One factor that Seattle Housing considers
in determining the eligibility of an applicant to the
Housing Choice Voucher program is the nature of any
criminal offenses in the applicant's history.
The screening criteria related to criminal history are
being revised by the Housing Authority to match
criteria used by the King County Housing Authority and
thus eliminate confusion among applicants. A meeting on
Jan. 3 will provide an opportunity for landlords and
other stakeholders to comment on the proposed new
criteria.
