The plan has been available for review and comment since August 23, 2024, at brattleborohousing.org. It will ask for waivers to allow the following changes: 1 the ability to conduct our own HQS inspections on our buildings, 2 the ability to exclude paid child support payments from income for rent calculation purposes, 3 change the medical deductions to eliminate over the counter and other expenses for the allowable deductions and increase the number of people eligible for deductions by eliminating the need to meet a threshold.

Re: Status Change
Date: February 20, 2025
Effective March 4, 2025, I will be retiring from my position with the Brattleboro Housing Partnerships.
It has been my pleasure over many, many years in being able to provide you with the services needed to make BHP’s Section 8, Shelter Plus Care and grant funded programs possible. Your commitment to working with the BHP has made our mission of believing strongly in community and the well-being of our neighborhoods possible. I sincerely thank each of you for your allowing me to be a part of that mission.
I wish you all the very best in your future endeavors.
