Zanesville Metro Housing Information

The goal of the Zanesville Metropolitan Housing Authority is the same as the Department of Housing and Urban Development: To promote adequate and affordable housing, economic opportunity and a suitable living environment free from discrimination. The mission of the Zanesville Metropolitan Housing Authority is to be a leader in providing affordable housing for very low, low, and moderate-income persons through effective management and wise stewardship of public funds and partnerships with our residents and others to enhance the quality of life in our communities. The Zanesville Metropolitan Housing Authority is governed by a five (5) member Board of Commissioners. These Board members are appointed for a five year term and are not compensated for their services. The Mayor of Zanesville appoints two commissioners, Muskingum County Commissioners appoints one commissioner, Muskingum County Common Pleas Court appoints one commissioner, and the Muskingum County Probate Court appoints one commissioner. One of the appointed Board of Commissioners is a resident of the Zanesville Metropolitan Housing Authority community.
