Redevelopment Reminder 📢

As plans for the future Blackwater Hills community continue to move forward, we want to keep residents informed by providing clarity to some of the questions we receive most often.

Here's what residents should know:

✓ A Housing Choice Voucher does not automatically expire after three months.

✓ Relocating does not automatically affect your opportunity to return to the new Blackwater Hills community. Eligible residents who meet program requirements are still be able to return.

✓ Choosing a Housing Choice Voucher does not prevent you from returning to the new community.

✓ For eligible returning residents, rent will continue to follow income-based housing program guidelines.

If you have questions about how redevelopment applies to your household, please contact LRHA directly.
