Fayetteville Housing Authority to reopen voucher waitlist for rental assistance

FAYETTEVILLE — The city’s Housing Authority is ready to issue housing vouchers for the first time in more than five years. Commonly known as Section 8, the authority’s housing choice voucher waitlist closed in early 2021 amid noncompliance issues with the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. The authority accrued more than $200,000 in debt when it used a development nonprofit to purchase and rehabilitate properties for low-income housing. Through its nonprofit, the authority used public dollars to pay its employees to maintain and rehabilitate what were legally private properties, which was a violation of federal regulations.

This Arkansas Town Is So Charmingly Odd You’ll Fall For It Before You Park The Car

A town of 67 people sounds like it should take about four minutes to see. Yet this one sits right where a river meets a lake, deep in the Ozark Mountains, and it has a way of making a quick stop stretch into an afternoon. The 2020 census counted fewer residents than a typical school bus can carry twice over, which makes every detail here easy to notice.
