The authority is primarily responsible for the development and operation of affordable and quality housing projects within the city, including the Oak Park Housing Project and the Chet Dotter Senior Apartment Community. The Housing Authority Board of Commissioners is responsible for policy, fiscal management, and the appointment of the housing authority chief executive officer. There are seven commissioners, who serve overlapping four-year terms.
