(RECAP: A planned transfer of Martinsville’s Section 8 housing assistance program to the Danville Redevelopment and Housing Authority apparently will not occur, city officials said Monday. In March, the council voted to seek HUD approval to transfer the Section 8 program to Danville’s authority. The move would save Martinsville about $65,000 annually by not having to operate the housing office. Assistant City Manager Wayne Knox said they have informally heard from officials with HUD and Danville’s authority that HUD will not approve the transfer. And, HUD officials with whom they have talked so far have not given any indication as to why the transfer apparently will not be approved.)
