SANFORD HOUSING AUTHORITY FIVE APPLICANT COMMUNITIES — https://sanfordhousing.org/applicants/ and https://sanfordhousing.org/program-projects/ reviewed September 29, 2026. Five distinct SHA-managed applicant-page communities: East Side Acres, Sunset Tower, The Maples and Mayflower Place in Sanford, plus Village View in Springvale. The 2026 maintenance source https://sanfordhousing.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/SHA-2026-Snow-Managment-Bid.pdf gives addresses for The Maples and Mayflower Place but differs from the projects page on East Side Acres' unit count (48 versus 49). East Side Acres spans three streets and Village View spans two numbered buildings; both remain unpinned group records. SHA's https://sanfordhousing.org/applicants/ provides a downloadable SHA property application https://sanfordhousing.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/SHA-universal-application_Nov2024.pdf for these five named developments and says applicants may also call the office. Its https://sanfordhousing.org/about-us/ says the waiting list is open for all complexes but that there is a wait; this establishes application intake, not vacant units or an offer to select a particular apartment. The 2024 form asks whether anyone in the household has ever been convicted of a felony and asks about other history; the question is not an automatic denial rule or proof of conviction-specific acceptance. Confirm the current application procedure, income/occupancy rules, rent and written screening criteria with SHA at 207-324-6747. The 17 School Street Sanford office is not a dwelling address. The separately linked Section 8 pre-application is for tenant-based vouchers, not these SHA-managed residences. Village View Apartments — Although SHA's applicant page groups Village View with its Sanford-area offerings, the projects page explicitly locates it on Pleasant Street in Springvale, not Sanford. It says there are 40 one- and two-bedroom homes for people age 62+ with project-based rental-assistance vouchers, in a community built in 1978. SHA's 2026 property-maintenance scope describes two buildings at 13 and 21 Pleasant Street, Springvale; this is one named 40-unit multi-building community, not a single entrance to pin or two separate 40-unit sites. The 2024 universal application lists Village View as a property choice. No current vacancy, rent or property-specific wait time is established.
