We do not take the application. The housing authority does. Applying to its waitlist is free.
We have not confirmed how to apply, because we have not yet read a page that states a waiting-list status. Start from the contact information on this page, and use the authority’s own website when you have it.
This is a common checklist, not Bar Harbor Housing Authority’s list. Bring what the authority’s application page names. Read the longer notes on papers.
Applying is free. Do not pay a person, a website, or a text message that offers to add you to a waitlist or move you up one. A landlord can charge an ordinary fee to apply for an apartment. That fee is not a fee to join the housing authority’s list.

Plain-language notes on the programs this authority runs. They describe the federal programs. They are not this authority’s rules, and they are not legal advice.
Public housing is an apartment the housing authority owns. The household pays rent based on income, and the authority is the landlord.
A public-housing waiting list is for those apartments. It is a different list from a voucher that can be used with a private landlord.
