What are the most important factors DCBA considers when reviewing an increase in the Rent Ceiling?
ANSWER. The most important factors are: • the square footage entitlement, • the size of the house requested, measured IAW CBI 10.5.05(9); • what accommodations were available and why they were not suitable; • did other CF members have difficulty finding accommodations in this area; and • any extenuating circumstance that influences the request for a rent ceiling increase.
