Denton Housing Authority has followed the same process for years. Annually, 50 percent of housing units are randomly selected for inspection
to determine that they are up to Uniform Physical Condition Standards.
The Authority’s maintenance team is responsive to maintenance requests that come in -
they follow an as-needed, on-demand maintenance plan. Vacant units are occupied within two months, and rents are collected on time.
Accounts payable does run behind from time to time, sometimes delayed 60 days – but bills are always eventually paid.
HUD reports are always turned in promptly. The CEO, Constance Medina, knows that improvements can always be made –
that’s true for any business – but she’s confident that the PHA is run well.
However, their PHAS sore has been dipping, and they currently have a score of 60.
