Section 8 contract renewal hangs over Cedar Ridge seniors
Benchmark, owner of Cedar Ridge senior apartments, faces a renewal decision with HUD on its 20 year Section 8 contract expiring August 1, 2000. If not renewed, tenants would receive housing vouchers through Cook County Housing Authority. Officials stress residents would remain housed, while debates focus on a required comparability study and future tenancy protections. Congress and HUD rules frame the process as key discussions proceed with residents and lawmakers planning a visit to address fears.
