Eloy gives back land to housing authority
by Caela Fox | The Eloy Enterprise
Officials are sorting out confusion over addresses and land ownership for some public housing that has been in existence since the 1960s.
The Eloy Housing Authority started doing title searches when it identified that four properties that were developed in the 1960s were still owned by the City of Eloy rather then by the Eloy Housing Authority like was thought.
Under a Declaration of Trust and an Annual Contributions Contract with the part of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) the properties were required to be in the name of the “Eloy Housing Authority” in order to receive the operation subsidy for each unit. As a result, the management agent is requesting that the council authorize the city to transfer the ownership of all four units over to the Eloy Housing Authority.
