The number of afford-
able apartment units avail-
able in Sisters is receiv-
ing a boost this month with
the acceptance of applica-
tions for Ponderosa Heights
Apartments, the new afford-
able apartment complex on
Brooks Camp Road.
To encourage local partici-
pation, applications will be
accepted only in person at the
Tamarack Apartment com-
plex at 555 N. Larch St. in
Sisters. Applicants may apply
Monday, October 22 through
Thursday, October 25 from 9
a.m. to 6 p.m.
Applicants may apply at
any point during the four-day
wait list opening. There is no
preference given to those who
apply early. Applying during
the opening will enter the
applicants into a lottery. Their
names will be placed on the
wait list in order of the ran-
domly assigned lottery num-
bers. Applicants will be con-
tacted beginning at the top of
the lottery list and offered an
apartment until all available
units are rented. Applicants
that are not selected dur-
ing the lease-up process will
remain on the wait list.
The apartments, which are
managed by Epic Property
Management, are restricted to
households earning no more
than 60 percent of the area
median income (AMI) for
the household size. A single-
person household would need
to have an annual income of
$29,280 or less. Maximum
rents will range from $650
for a one-bedroom unit,
$730 for a two-bedroom, and
$1,244 for three bedrooms.
Water, sewer and garbage are
included in the rental amount.
The finished complex will
consist of 48 units including
32 one-bedroom, eight two-
bedroom, and eight three-
bedroom units. Three of the

apartments are ADA compli-
ant. Two of the two-bedroom
and all of the three-bedroom
units are set aside for clients
of DHS Child Welfare or
Self-Sufficiency Programs.
The three-bedroom units
have Project-Based Voucher
(PBV) assistance attached
to them. This means the
approved residents will pay
approximately 30 percent of
their gross income towards
rent and utilities. Applicants
must not exceed 50 percent
of the AMI. For the two two-
bedroom set asides, appli-
cants can’t exceed 60 percent
of the AMI.
There are six separate
buildings in the complex and
two accompanying parking
lots. The first four buildings
are scheduled to be ready
for occupancy by the end of
December. The final two will
come on line a month later.
The apartment interiors
have dove gray walls with
white trim throughout, car-
peted bedrooms, a walk-in
closet in the master bedroom,
combination shower/tub in
the full bathroom, and come
with stackable washers and
dryers. Ground-level units
have back doors leading to a
small concrete pad.
The complex will have
a community room with a
leasing office, and there is a
playground. There are more
