Public Housing Authority rent rates for Cooperstown
went into effect Wednesday, Frank
D. Peterson, University comptroller,
announced today.
The new rents are scaled according to the provisions of the Lanham
Act which requires that rents in a
federal housing project be adjusted according to the renter's income.
The scale is a national one made
and approved by FPHA, Peterson
said. On a national basis, it differs
with differing areas.
The previous rates charged a flat
price of $27.50 for a
m
house and $32.50 for a
house. The new rates charge
less for low incomes and more for
higher incomes. For instance, to
take the high and the low rents, a
veteran earning more than $0 per
month but less than $95 per month
would ba changed $22.50 for a trailer unit, $26.50 for a
house and $28.50 for a
house. A veteran earning
more than $140 but less than $145
per month would be charged $28 for
a trailer unit, $34 for a single bedroom house and $41 for a double
bedroom house. Rates vary between these figures.
