Reported policy summaryEnglewood East's senior building stands at 3140 Tess Avenue NE, Salem, OR 97301. SHA's Englewood East page (https://www.salemhousingor.com/pageee) says Teton-Chemeketa Non-Profit Corp. owns this 42-unit building. Its current tenant selection plan (effective July 1, 2026; https://www.salemhousingor.com/s/E-14-gEE-TSP-effective-7126-002.pdf) describes 40 one-bedroom and two two-bedroom units under the federal Section 202/8 program. The head of household, spouse or co-head must be at least 62 for occupancy; the property page separately says a household member in one of those roles can be at least 60 when applying. Check age-at-application rules with SHA when the list reopens. Gross income must not exceed the plan's 50%-of-area-median-income threshold for household size. The plan says rent is income-based: the lesser of 30% of adjusted monthly income or 10% of unadjusted monthly income, minus an electricity allowance; water, sewer and garbage are included. The page quotes approximately 24–30 months for a one-bedroom and two to three years for a two-bedroom, but these are undated estimates, not an open-list notice or a promised wait. SHA's property/program overview (https://www.salemhousingor.com/programs-and-properties) lists these properties beneath “Closed Waiting Lists” and says applications for closed lists cannot be accepted until publicly reopened. An application portal link does not establish a current opening. Reviewed September 29, 2026; ask SHA for any later change. The senior and disability buildings have different eligibility and addresses; an application to one is not evidence of admission to the other. The property's current tenant selection plan says all adults, including live-in aides, receive criminal background checks. It provides for review of circumstances and rehabilitation or expungement evidence, but also lists conduct-based exclusions with different lookback windows and some lifetime bars. Read the property-specific plan and ask SHA about your case; no conviction category is promised approval. No current vacancy, rent quote, waitlist position or individual screening outcome has been independently verified.
