RESOLUTION NO. HO171 
 
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 has established that Payment Standards must be set between 90 percent to 110 
percent, or up to 120 percent with a HUD waiver pursuant to Notice PIH 2022-30, of the annually 
published Fair Market Rents; and 
 
WHEREAS, the Housing Authority increased the current Payment Standards April 1, 2022 with 
HUD approved waivers, and the market and rental conditions now warrant another increase; and  
 
WHEREAS, the current Payment Standards for Chandler are set for each bedroom size at 119 
percent of Fair Market Rents. Due to escalating rents in the Chandler market area, the Payment 
Standards will be increased by an average of 32 percent which is 119 percent of the current 
published Fair Market Rents. 
 
NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Public Housing Authority Commission of the
