Occupancy
LEARN MORE
LEARN MORE
DEPARTMENT OVERVIEW
The Northern Cheyenne Tribal Housing Authority oversees rental units across five communities within the Northern Cheyenne Reservation. Rent is determined at 15% of the household’s total adjusted annual income from all sources. Participants are required to sign a month-to-month lease agreement with the Housing Authority and must certify their household income annually. Compliance with lease terms and Housing Authority policies is mandatory. Annual updates are required unless changes in household income occur, which would affect the monthly rent amount. The Occupancy Department assists with conducting annual certifications for tenants, managing compliance issues, and ensuring adherence to Housing Authority policies.
STAFF
The Occupancy Department is staffed by an Occupancy Division Manager and three Resident Service Specialists who serve the five communities within the Northern Cheyenne Reservation.
