2008 is Here, and We are Kicking Off the AHMA Green Turn Program and
Model Document Initiative!
The AHMA Green Turn Program is being developed in partnership with
the City of Seattle, Office of Housing. Many owners and managers may be
unaware of the huge operational cost savings achievable by incorporating "GREEN"
into every apartment turn or move-in. Converting to fluorescent lighting,
installing ceramic tile, insulating windows, or installing low flow toilets -
typically result in a huge return on investment and lower operating costs across
our subsidized and assisted portfolios. More information will be
forthcoming.
The AHMA Model Document Initiative is in the final stages. Working in
partnership with our Performance Based Contract Administrator (Contract
Management Services), the US Department of HUD and the Washington State Housing
Finance Commission, a set of downloadable "model documents" will soon be
available (for members of AHMA of Washington only). While not "formally
endorsed" by our agency partners, the documents have been reviewed for the
essential elements. As time goes on, and MORs or other compliance reviews
provide enhancements, members are encouraged to provide Sheila King with these
recommendations so that the master documents can be improved. More
information will be forthcoming.
