Who decides when a unit transfer is necessary based on policies in the Tenant Selection Plan?

The owner is responsible for deciding when a unit transfer is necessary based on the policies outlined in the Tenant Selection Plan. The Tenant Selection Plan typically establishes the criteria and procedures for managing tenant placements, including circumstances that would warrant a transfer, such as changes in family size, health needs, or other specific conditions that might affect living arrangements.

While residents may request a transfer and the local housing authority or community boards may provide input or oversight, it is ultimately the owner's authority and responsibility to review these requests against the policies laid out in the plan and determine if a transfer aligns with those policies. The owner's decision-making is based on adherence to the guidelines established in the Tenant Selection Plan, ensuring that actions taken are compliant with regulatory expectations and tenant rights.
