EXHIBIT A
6. Interpretation. In evaluating an application to lease a County Unit, Owner shall be
guided by the following:
a. An applicant's physical place of employment is controlling, not the mailing
address;
b. Claims of employment by an applicant that are unable to be verified by Owner
will not be utilized in determining an applicant's eligibility; and
c. Seasonal work and part-time work alone may not be adequate to meet the
minimum 30 hours per week average annual requirement, but may augment other employment
to meet the minimum eligibility requirements.
7. Occupancy.
a. Owner shall provide the ECHDA with written notice of each upcoming vacancy of
a County Unit at least 10 days prior to the end of the then-current lease term.
b. Subject to these Guidelines, at all times, each County Unit shall be occupied by
an Eligible Household.
c. A County Unit may be vacant during repairs and renovations, but Owner may not
disproportionately designate vacant Units as County Units. For example, because
approximately 10% of the Units at the Property are County Units, if there are 5 vacant Units at
the Property at a particular time, only one of the vacant Units may be a County Unit.
d. The preference for leasing/occupancy for each available County Unit shall be as
follows:
The County or an Eligible Household that includes a member who is employed
by the County; but if Owner makes reasonable efforts to lease the County Unit to all
such Qualified Residents for 7 days and finds no such Qualified Residents, then to
ii. An Eligible Household that indudes a member who is employed by a business
located within the County's boundaries.
e. The County Units shall be leased for 12-month periods.
f. If the ECHDA or the County is the lessee, as an Eligible Household, either may
transfer a County Unit lease to another Eligible Household at any time.
g. If the ECHDA or the County is the lessee, as an Eligible Household, either may
sublease a County Unit to another Eligible Household at any time.
8. Misrepresentation. Any misrepresentation by an applicant in any submittal shall
disqualify such applicant from being eligible to lease a County Unit, and shall be grounds for
eviction if such misrepresentation is revealed after such applicant's occupancy.

EXHIBIT A
9. Inspection of Documents. The ECHDA or its designee may inspect any documents
submitted with any application for Eligible Household status pursuant to Section 5 hereof, at any
time during normal business hours, upon reasonable notice. In addition, upon inspection, if the
ECHDA reasonably determines that additional documents are necessary to verify Eligible
Household status, the ECHDA may request additional documents.
10. Retirement. An individual who occupies a County Unit as his or her Primary Residence
and was an Eligible Household when the individual moved into the County Unit, but then retires
during the term of his or her lease, and is 60 years of age or older at the time of retirement, and
who, worked an average of 30 hours or more per week at a business located in Eagle County
that paid sales taxes, or was otherwise generally recognized as a legitimate business, may
continue to occupy the County Unit under a County Lease, as extended or renewed.
11. Disability. An individual who occupies a County Unit as his or her Primary Residence
and was an Eligible Household when the individual moved into the County Unit, but then
becomes disabled during the term of his or her lease and the disability prevents the individual
from working an average of 30 hours or more per week may continue to occupy the County Unit
