Opening on Alameda Housing Authority Board of Commissioners for Section 8 tenant or tenant in an Alameda Housing Authority-owned property 

The primary goal of the Housing Authority of the City of Alameda is to provide quality, affordable, and safe housing in the City of Alameda for low income families, households, seniors, and veterans. The seven-member Housing Authority Board of Commissioners (HABOC) is the Housing Authority’s governing body and includes two tenant members. There is currently a vacancy for one tenant member. This partial term ends June 30, 2024, but is eligible for reappointment for a full two-year term. Alameda residents who are at least 18 years old and participants in the Housing Choice Voucher program are eligible to apply.

The HABOC meets on the third Wednesday of every month at 6:00pm at 703 Atlantic Avenue. In 2024, some topics the Housing Authority will address include building new residential property at North Housing, implementing incentives to encourage more landlords to offer Section 8 lease opportunities, and starting work on a new Strategic Plan.
