To all Residents:

Due to the current state of emergency because of COVID 19, (Corona Virus) issued by President Trump last week, Massac County Housing Authority will close the administration office to the public until further notice.  If you have paperwork that needs to be turned in the office, please place it in the drop box.  If you are paying your rent, make sure to put it in an envelope with your name and address and place in the drop box.

The maintenance staff will only be working “emergency” work orders, ex. stopped up toilets, no heat.  When you call for the emergency work order, the receptionist will ask if anyone in your household is sick with coughing, sneezing, fever, headache, or difficult breathing.  If you answer is yes, staff will hold off on completing the work order temporarily. 

A reminder, the pest control contractor will proceed with spraying the following sites, (Spence, Strickland, and Spence-Addition) on Wednesday, March 18, 2020.

Tentatively, the Massac County School System, may decide to use the community room located at Spence Apartments to for children to pick up meals.
We are sorry for the inconvenience this may cause many of you, but we all must be proactive with this issue.  If you have any questions, please call the office or email me at martelle@massaccountyhousing.org.

Everyone be safe.

Sincerely,
Andiamo M. White
Executive Director
