QAC Housing Authority Meeting || 11/09/2026

The QAC Housing Authority meeting was held November 9, 2026. The board heard property and capital-project updates, including a report that county commissioners had approved awarding the deck-replacement project to RR; work was expected to begin soon, with no contract value stated. Staff also reported grant-supported parking-lot repaving planned at Riverside Estates and Fisher Manor, replacement illuminated entrance signs at four properties through Shore Sign, and extensive unit and building repairs, including outsourced renovation work. The authority’s reported annual operating budget was approximately $5.3 million; first-quarter revenue of about $1.46 million and expenditures of about $1.11 million produced a $346,000 favorable accounting variance, which the director cautioned was not a surplus. No new spending vote or contract award was recorded at this meeting beyond reporting the previously approved deck award; the board did approve the prior meeting minutes by motion and second, with the vote outcome not stated in the transcript.

The authority reported engaging the Cohen Law Group and CBG Communications, with county support, to pursue improved cable and broadband service terms for five housing developments. Their planned work includes issuing an RFI to three cable operators and negotiating a possible bulk-services agreement focused on cost, service quality, and customer protections; no fee or board approval was stated. Operational discussions also covered vacancies, maintenance, the housing-choice-voucher funding shortfall, and HUD program changes expected in 2027. The authority reported 13 surrendered units, seven ready for occupancy, and three vouchers currently supported through state funding.
