Brick Seeking Residents To Serve On Housing Authority Board

The board meets monthly and oversees the services provided to low-income residents.

BRICK, NJ — Brick Township officials are seeking residents who would like to serve on the board of commissioners for the Brick Township Housing Authority.

The Brick Township Housing Authority is an autonomous authority whose primary mission is to provide decent, safe and sanitary housing to low-income residents of Brick Township. The housing authority is federally funded and provides assistance to residents via the Public Housing Program and the Housing Choice Voucher Program.

"The Housing Authority serves some of the most vulnerable people of our community and as such, we are seeking residents who are compassionate and have a desire to make a positive difference in people’s lives," Mayor John G. Ducey said.

Ducey said Samantha Anoyeke, who joined the board in March 2018, has moved out of Brick. The appointment of Richard Dyers expires in March, though Ducey said he was expecting Dyers will seek reappointment.
