HCV Owners and Property Managers,
The HUD-VASH program is seeking landlords to rent to our military Veterans! The HUD-VASH program is an initiative to house Veterans in need via subsidized housing vouchers. Veterans are issued Housing Choice Vouchers from HAKC and work with case managers from the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) to locate and rent apartments in Kansas City, MO.
If you have available units, please contact the VA via email or phone:

On Jan. 31, HUD published a notice titled “Carbon Monoxide Alarms or Detectors in U.S. Housing and Urban Development (HUD)-Assisted Housing.” The notice discusses the risks of carbon monoxide (CO), provides resources for detecting CO and preventing exposure, and requires that CO alarms or detectors be installed in certain HUD-assisted housing. The notice states that housing in Housing Choice Voucher Program should comply with the International Fire Code (IFC) 2018 standards on the installation of CO alarms or detectors by Dec. 27, 2022.
Carbon Monoxide Alarms
Each dwelling unit assisted under this subtitle shall contain installed carbon monoxide alarms or detectors that meet or exceed(1) the standards described in chapters 9 and 11 of the 2018 publication of the International Fire Code, as published by the International Code Council; or“(2) any other standards as may be adopted by the Secretary, including any relevant updates to the International Fire Code, through a notice published in the Federal Register.”
HAKC Implementation Plan
Beginning in May 2022 all Annual and New Admission Inspections will be inspected to for CO detectors.
The Housing Authority of Kansas City (HAKC) will allow self-certifications for ALL passed inspections from January 3, 2022 through April 30, 2022. If you had inspection that occurred during that time period, you will be contacted accordingly.
