Corrective Action Plan

2022-001 Auditee's response and Planned Corrective Action Planned Implementation Date of Corrective Action: All annuals, interims, and rent increases being processed after March 1, 2023. Person Responsible for corrective Action: Margaret Dooling - HCV Housing Manager The Exeter Housing Authority has changed the policy of documenting rent reasonableness. Going forward all files will document the rent reasonableness by filling out the point system chart at the bottom of each inspection report on bottom of the rent reasonableness point total page. This will be compared to the Rent Reasonableness Chart for the particular year that is supplied by NHHFA on the price range based on the total points. A copy of the NHHFA chart will also be attached in the file as well. This will be done for every new admission, annual inspection, as well as rent increase request.
