2006-2006: Cayce Housing Needs

In this section of the Annual Plan, each authority is required to identify the housing needs of the Authority based on the statistics of the waiting list

The Columbia Housing Authority maintains the waiting list of the Cayce Housing Authority.  On February 4, 2005 , there were over 4,514 families on the total waiting list for housing.  The number of applicants that have requested housing in Cayce is 290.

 The waiting list indicates there is a need for additional one, two, and three bedroom units.  The Cayce Housing Authority has no plans for the creation of any additional housing at this time due to the limitations of the 1998 Quality Affordable Housing Act.  The Board of Commissioners of the Cayce Housing Authority will consider all opportunities to increase the amount of available affordable housing during the next five years.  The agency continues to cooperate with the City of Cayce Government in regards to housing programs.
