Just wanted to share my experience. My partner and I are both city employees.

March 5, 2026 - heard back to submit eligibility documents.
March 24 - management contacted us to submit further documents, which we submitted same day.
March 25 - was asked if we wanted to tour a 1-bed and 2-bed.
March 26 - toured the units, told management we preferred the 2-bed.
April 15 - was asked if we wanted to tour another 2-bed with balcony.
April 28 - toured the 2-bed with balcony, and expressed this is the unit we wanted.
April 30 - submitted more documents.
