Project Description
Clarendon has been awarded a lead paint inspection contract with the Cuyahoga Metropolitan Housing Authority (CMHA) to provide certified lead paint inspections and risk assessments across their extensive property portfolio.
CMHA, established in 1933 as the first chartered public housing authority in the United States, is one of the nation's 10 largest housing authorities. Lead paint inspection requirements are critical for public housing authorities to ensure compliance with HUD regulations and maintain safe housing conditions for vulnerable populations, particularly families with children under six years of age.
These inspections are essential for CMHA's ongoing compliance with federal environmental safety standards and support their mission to provide safe, quality, affordable housing opportunities throughout Cuyahoga County.
Market Overview
The Cleveland metropolitan area continues to be a significant market for affordable housing, with CMHA serving as a major provider of housing stability for low-income residents. As one of Ohio's largest housing authorities, CMHA plays a crucial role in the regional housing ecosystem, managing both public housing units and Housing Choice Voucher programs.
The regulatory environment for public housing has increasingly emphasized environmental safety standards, making lead paint compliance a critical component of property management and tenant safety. CMHA's proactive approach to environmental compliance positions them as a leader among housing authorities nationwide in maintaining safe, quality housing for their residents.
This contract represents Clarendon's expansion into specialized environmental inspection services, complementing our core HUD compliance expertise and strengthening our position as a comprehensive compliance partner for housing authorities.
