Danbury Housing Authority

The meeting included a report from the Resident Commissioner announcing her upcoming departure in February. Discussions covered management reports for Public Housing, which included collaborations with the Danbury Police Department for holiday gift drives and partnerships for senior gifts, as well as the awarding of opioid scholarships. The Facilities report noted the completion of the Laurel Gardens stair project and the bidding process for the Crosby Paving project. Financial reports for November 2025 indicated a positive monthly surplus, though overall performance slightly declined from October due to expense growth outpacing revenue, with notable expense increases in Public Housing, Central Office, and Ives Manor. PHAS Indicators for November 2025 were reviewed, showing a higher MASS score but a lower FASS score pending fund reallocation. Resolutions adopted included the Tenant Selection Plan update for CHFA programs, a Procurement Policy update to reference new Federal Simplified Acquisition Thresholds ($350k) and Micro-Purchase limits ($15k), and the opening of Waitlists for Wooster Manor & Putnam Towers Elderly housing using a lottery selection method. New Business involved updates on the Congressional appropriations bill, noting that while HCV funding may appear increased, it will effectively remain flat without allowing for new vouchers in 2026, and that Capital funds and CDBG are projected to remain flat. An Executive Session was held for Personnel Evaluation of Executive Leadership.
