If you are interested in moving into the jurisdiction of the Decatur Housing Authority, and you are currently a voucher participant, please read the following information:

Decatur Housing Authority is not absorbing.  We will be billing your home agency.  Also, if you have already located a unit in our jurisdiction, please review the Payment Standards and Occupancy Standards for our agency which may be different than the housing authority you are currently with. Our occupancy standards are:

                                    One bedroom for the Head of Household

                                    One bedroom for every two members regardless of age or sex

                                     (This means your son and daughter might share a bedroom if that is

                                       how you decide to assign the bedrooms)

All incoming portability documentation for participants who are porting into our jurisdiction is to be faxed or mailed to:
