Due to the growing concern over the spread of the Corona virus (also referred to as “COVID-19”) we are instituting the following changes to CHAD office and maintenance policies starting Monday, March 16, 2020: 

  1. All meetings with CHAD staff are by appointment only.  Walk-in visitation to the CHAD office will not be allowed until further notice.  Please call CHAD to schedule a time to renew your lease, submit a housing application, or to make your rent payment with a CHAD staff member. Please check our Holiday schedule on our "Contact Us" page for office closure days. 
  2. Please stay home if you are sick or have symptoms of being ill.  If you, or someone in your household, are ill, do not schedule an appointment at CHAD’s offices until the illness has passed.  CHAD is committed to helping reduce the spread of the virus to you and to CHAD staff.
