Sunnycrest Village is an apartment complex for persons 62 years and over, the handicapped, or disabled. We are open for all people without regard to race, color, religion, sex, handicap, familial status, or national origin. Sunnycrest Village does not discriminate and offers equal housing opportunities for all. Persons interested in living at Sunnycrest Village complete an application form and return it to Sunnycrest. Date and time recorded on the application determine placement on the waiting list. Persons must be able to meet the criteria for resident responsibility as outlined below. Applicants who are qualified individuals with a disability may ask for a reasonable accommodation to either a policy or a physical change to the apartment or facility. Service/companion animals will be allowed in the event the resident/applicant has shown they meet the criteria for such an accommodation under the law.
Under regulatory agreement with HUD, Sunnycrest Village Project, LLC offers 34 units to residents with incomes at 50% of AMI (area median income). Under regulatory agreement with SDHDA, Sunnycrest Village North, LLC and Sunnycrest Village South, LLC each offer 24 units in their respective building under a restricted rent program to residents with incomes below 60% AMI. If needed, to meet these regulatory agreements, residents will need to provide Sunnycrest Village the necessary financial information to verify eligibility.
When an apartment of the desired size is available, based upon the resident mix required by HUD and SDHDA, qualified applicants are contacted in chronological order by phone or by letter. If interested in that apartment, applicant(s) needs to meet with Sunnycrest Village staff. When an apartment of desired size is offered and the applicant turns down the offer, the applicant may be moved to the bottom of the list. All rejections for living at Sunnycrest Village are given in writing. If an applicant chooses to appeal the Administrator’s decision, the Administrator will arrange a meeting with the Board of Director’s Admissions Committee.
Serious violation of the lease agreement, such as nonpayment of rent, or other noncompliance issues, will be discussed with the resident and if necessary, family or support persons indicated in the resident file. Sunnycrest Village staff and/or administrator will be available to discuss community services where help may be obtained for individual self-care needs.
