67 Acquisition/Scattered Sites (LA 2-8 and LA 2-9): 2835 Southern Avenue, Shreveport, LA 71104. All homes under the two programs are described as single-family units. HACS says homes were purchased under the 67 Acquisition Program in 1988 from the Federal Housing Association (FHA) and private homeowners. An additional 14 homes were purchased in 1990 under the Scattered Sites LA 2-9 initiative. Utilities are the tenant's responsibility; rent is described as subsidized. Homes located in residential communities; HACS describes this as an alternative to visible markers of public housing Contact: 318.227.9655. No unit-level addresses, current vacancy, waitlist status, bedroom-level inventory, or screening rule stated. Do not treat the office address as an available rental. Resource only; this address is not an identified rental unit/home: 2835 Southern is explicitly the Wilkinson Terrace office in the Wilkinson detail page and is not established as a rental house in this cluster. Official sources: https://hacsla.com/programs/, https://hacsla.com/scattered-sites.
Scattered Sites (LA 2-10): 2835 Southern Avenue, Shreveport, LA 71104. Source-reported count: 35 (not an availability count).

No individually address-supported rental, current vacancy or list status is published.

Official sources: https://hacsla.com/programs/, https://hacsla.com/scattered-sites.
Bayou Grande Apartments (Not stated on banner): 1107 Caddo St., Shreveport, LA 71101. Contact: (318) 210-0551. No undated banner is treated as a guaranteed vacancy. Confirm leasing, current bedroom mix, PBV/LIHTC eligibility and screening directly with the property at the displayed phone number. HACS banner claim: “BAYOU GRANDE APARTMENTS LEASING NOW”; Displayed on current HACS Programs and home pages but undated; confirms HACS currently displays the leasing claim, not that a unit or waitlist is guaranteed to be available on the review date. Historical context: A 2021 HACS public notice described Bayou Grande as a future mixed-income community, anticipated over 200 assisted project-based voucher units and 1-, 2-, and 3-bedroom offerings, and announced a pre-waiting-list start of April 30, 2021. The accompanying FAQ is likewise historical. Neither source establishes current inventory or waitlist status. Official sources: https://hacsla.com/programs/, https://hacsla.com/, https://hacsla.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/CN-Pre-Waiting-List-Public-Notice.pdf, https://hacsla.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/FAQs-CN-Pre-Waiting-List.pdf.

Project-based assistance is tied to the designated units; contact the property/HACS about current screening and availability. Official sources: https://hacsla.com/tax-credit-properties.
Qualified city resources (not individual rental records):
Hollywood Heights Housing Development: HACS describes 129 homes scattered throughout the residential community; it does not identify a rental house at 5000 Armstrong. Detail page locates the manager's office at 4219 Luciana Circle. Keep 5000 as community-level source metadata, not as a supported house/unit rental address.
67 Acquisition/Scattered Sites: 2835 Southern is explicitly the Wilkinson Terrace office in the Wilkinson detail page and is not established as a rental house in this cluster.
Scattered Sites: Cluster has 35 properties spread throughout Shreveport; HACS does not identify any of the 35 as 2835 Southern Avenue.
Scattered Sites: The identical address supports Briarwood Village's 32-unit development and on-site office, not an identified home among this separate seven-home cluster.
Additional HACS Asset Management lead, outside the eight Programs entries and the six/four count: Fairfield Estates, 1156 Wilkinson Street. The reviewed page provides no city/ZIP in that entry, property details, contact, unit mix, or availability; it is a secondary resource only. Source: https://hacsla.com/asset-management.
Application links — https://hacsla.com/apply-for-housing:
Online Application: https://www.pha-web.com/portals/onlineApplication/1923. HACS says this lets applicants view open waiting lists and apply online; it does not identify which lists are open.
Waiting List Status: https://www.pha-web.com/portals/waitingListStatus/1923 (for status of lists to which an applicant has applied).
Applicant Portal: https://www.pha-web.com/portals/applicant/1923.
Make a Payment: https://hacsla.com/make-a-payment/; the page describes payment of security deposit, application fee, and first month's rent.
Application-page wording offers access to current open-list information but the reviewed HACS page does not name any open list or property-specific availability.
Housing Choice Voucher / Section 8 — https://hacsla.com/housing-choice-voucher-program/. HACS describes Section 8 rental assistance as allowing eligible low-income households to rent privately owned homes. Tenant-based voucher holders select a home in the private market and may take assistance to another home when moving, subject to program rules. For project-based vouchers, HACS contracts with an owner for specified units/term and refers families from its waiting list to fill vacancies; assistance is tied to the unit and does not automatically follow a household that leaves. Selected units must meet HACS quality standards and reasonable-rent guidelines. HACS can reject a lease that does not meet standards or has unreasonable rent. The page says tenants are responsible for all utilities, rent deposit and service connection fees. The HCV program page says to contact the Section 8 Office at (318) 698-3600 for application and eligibility information. The Departments page separately labels Housing Choice Voucher Program 318.698.3610; the Program page's displayed primary contact is retained, and phone mismatch should be confirmed. HCV office listed at 2500 Line Avenue, Shreveport, LA 71104; 318.698.3600. The Departments page shows a different HCV number (318.698.3610), so confirm the correct contact. No open HCV waiting list or voucher issuance status established by the reviewed pages. HCV participation is distinct from property-specific application/waitlist status.
GoSection8 referral — https://hacsla.com/go-section-8-rental-listings/. HACS says it partners with GoSection8 to list private-market rental properties for potential Housing Choice Voucher holders, including apartments, duplexes, single-family homes and townhomes. Tenant listings: http://hacs.gosection8.com/; landlords: http://hacs.gosection8.com/ListYourProperty.aspx. These are referral/search links, not HACS-verified address-level rental records. No external listing was treated as evidence for any of the named HACS properties.

Address and office distinctions:
Wilkinson Terrace property versus office: 2725 Southern Avenue, Shreveport, LA 71104 is the address HACS gives for Wilkinson Terrace Apartments and its 162-unit rental development. The Programs page and linked Wilkinson detail page explicitly say the office is at 2835 Southern Avenue. Keep 2725 Southern as the rental-property address; do not substitute 2835 Southern, which is an office address also reused as a representative address for Scattered Sites.
Hollywood Heights 5000 Armstrong Place: The Programs page and the Hollywood Heights detail page label 5000 Armstrong Place, Shreveport, LA 71109 as the development address. The detail page says 129 single-family homes are scattered throughout the Hollywood Heights residential community and explicitly places the manager's office at 4219 Luciana Circle. Thus 5000 Armstrong is not established as the manager's office, but neither is it an address for an identified rental house/unit. Retain the community as a resource-only lead and do not create a unit/property record whose purported rental address is 5000 Armstrong.
Scattered Sites LA 2-8/2-9 and 2835 Southern Avenue: HACS describes single-family homes purchased under those programs but gives 2835 Southern Avenue as the contact/representative address. That address is also explicitly identified as the Wilkinson Terrace office. No individual scattered-site rental addresses are published.
Scattered Sites LA 2-10 and 2835 Southern Avenue: The detail page states that the cluster contains 35 homes spread throughout Shreveport and prints 2835 Southern Avenue, Shreveport, LA 71104 as its address. The source does not identify 2835 Southern as one of the 35 homes; treat it as an office/cluster contact address only.
Briarwood Village versus Scattered Sites LA 2-11 and 4223 Greenbriar Drive: 4223 Greenbriar Drive, Shreveport, LA 71109 is the official address for the 32-unit Briarwood Village development, where HACS says the manager's office is within the development. The Scattered Sites LA 2-11 page also prints 4223 Greenbriar Drive while describing seven different houses scattered throughout the city. It is therefore not evidence that any of those seven homes is at 4223 Greenbriar; the address supports Briarwood Village, not an individual LA 2-11 unit.
Status and screening caveats:
A property appearing in HACS PROPERTIES or on a detail page does not establish an available unit, open property-specific waitlist, current acceptance of applications, rent, or screening outcome. Apply for Housing says its Online Application link lets applicants view open waiting lists and apply online; the page itself does not state which specific lists are open. Its Waiting List Status link is for lists to which a person has already applied. The HCV description explains voucher mechanics and contact routes; it does not establish an open tenant-based HCV waiting list or a vacancy at an HACS property. No reviewed current HACS property or application page publishes an individual criminal-record screening standard or guarantees acceptance. Do not claim criminal-record acceptance or rejection; applicants should verify written screening criteria with HACS/property management. Bayou Grande's site-wide banner states LEASING NOW, but the banner has no displayed publication/as-of date and is not a guarantee of current availability. Confirm directly at (318) 210-0551. A 2021 Bayou Grande notice described a future development and a pre-waiting-list start date of April 30, 2021. It is historical, not evidence that a current list is open. A 2021 HACS public-hearing advertisement referred to a significant amendment involving demolition of Wilkinson Terrace. The current Programs/detail pages still describe Wilkinson Terrace without an as-of date. This conflict makes present operational status unclear; verify directly with HACS rather than treating page copy or the old notice as conclusive.
Other stale wording and source conflicts:
Wilkinson Terrace status versus 2021 demolition-planning notice: Current undated HACS Programs/detail copy describes Wilkinson Terrace as an operating 162-apartment public-housing development. An official HACS public-hearing advertisement dated August 23, 2021 concerned a significant amendment to the Five Year Action Plan including demolition of Wilkinson Terrace. Neither source establishes present-day occupancy, demolition completion, or availability. Status is unresolved as of review.
Bayou Grande banner versus historic future-development notice: The site-wide banner currently renders the words BAYOU GRANDE APARTMENTS LEASING NOW and gives 1107 Caddo St. No publication date, availability detail, unit type/inventory, or waitlist status accompanies the banner. HACS's April 2021 notice described the project as future and announced a pre-waiting-list start in 2021. The banner confirms the authority's current displayed claim but not guaranteed present availability.
Hollywood Heights representative address and office address differ: HACS gives 5000 Armstrong Place as the development address but says its manager's office is at 4219 Luciana Circle. 4219 Luciana Circle is also the address for the separate Greenwood Terrace development. The page does not give individual Hollywood Heights house addresses.
Scattered-site office addresses are not rental-home addresses: HACS labels 2835 Southern Avenue for both LA 2-8/2-9 and LA 2-10 clusters; LA 2-11 instead prints 4223 Greenbriar Drive, which is also Briarwood Village's address. The LA 2-10 and LA 2-11 descriptions say individual homes are scattered throughout Shreveport but provide no individual addresses.
Undated and older form material: Programs still links landlord/tenant documents whose filenames or visible captions identify 2010, 2016, and 2017 material. HCV Information also presents September 2017 briefing/utility documents alongside utility schedules labelled 2024. Asset Management presents utility-allowance file URLs with Aug-2026 names. A filename/date label is recorded as displayed metadata, not a guarantee that a form is the current version for every application.
Go Section 8 form labels point back to the page: The HUD 52580A and Exhibit 4 checklist link labels both lead back to the Go Section 8 page with a fragment, rather than to a PDF. Retain both link placements but do not represent them as downloadable forms.
No individual rental records are created for Hollywood Heights at 5000 Armstrong Place; Scattered Sites LA 2-8/2-9 or LA 2-10 at 2835 Southern Avenue (Wilkinson's office); or LA 2-11 at 4223 Greenbriar Drive (Briarwood's property address). Fairfield Estates is also a secondary resource only.
