The Housing Authority
The Housing Authority of the Town of Brookfield is a duly authorized and acting Public Body, having been created pursuant to the Connecticut Statutes. The Housing Authority owns the property, and has life use of the buildings on the property. Both forms of ownership will continue as long as the land and buildings are used for the purpose of providing housing for the elderly and the disabled. The Housing Authority has an Assistance Agreement with the State of Connecticut, and a cooperation Agreement with the Town of Brookfield. It is the Housing Authority's responsibility to maintain the facility in accordance to Standards developed by the Connecticut Legislature, and the State Department of Housing. The Authority is governed by a Board of Directors made up of volunteers from the Town of Brookfield. The day to day operation is managed by a Director and his / her staff. The Director reports to the Board of Directors. We have (27) efficiency apartments, each with an area of 450 square feet, and (4) two room apartments and (4) handicapped apartments, each 522 square feet in area. The Housing Authority is charged with the responsibility of maintaining each apartment. You can liken this relationship to a condominium association and the maintenance agreement includes the interior of each apartment.
