RESOLUTION NO. HO163 
 
A RESOLUTION OF THE PUBLIC HOUSING AUTHORITY COMMISSION 
OF THE CITY OF CHANDLER, ARIZONA, REVISING AND INCREASING 
THE PAYMENT STANDARDS FOR THE HOUSING CHOICE VOUCHER 
PROGRAM (SECTION 8 PROGRAM). 
 
WHEREAS, the City of Chandler, Housing and Redevelopment Division (the Housing Authority) 
administers the Housing Choice Voucher Program contract to provide affordable housing for up 
to 486 families; and 
 
WHEREAS, the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) publishes 
Fair Market Rents effective October 1st, then subsequently each Housing Authority determines 
Payment Standards as the amount that is needed to support the reasonable cost of a rental unit, 
based on bedroom size, within the local market; and 
 
WHEREAS, HUD established that Payment Standards must be set between 90 percent to 110 
percent of the annually published Fair Market Rents; and 
 
WHEREAS, the current Payment Standards for Chandler are set for each bedroom size and ranges 
between 96 percent and 105 percent of Fair Market Rents. Due to escalating rents in the Chandler 
market area, the Payment Standards shall be increased by an average of 15 percent which is 110 
percent of the current published Fair Market Rents; and 
 
WHEREAS, the Housing Authority has not increased the current Payment Standards since Jan. 1, 
2021, and the market and rental conditions now warrant an increase. 
  
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Public Housing Authority Commission of the

Adopts a revised Payment Standards Schedule for the Chandler Housing 
Authority’s Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher Program attached hereto as Exhibit
