Appendix—Listing of Waivers of Regulatory Requirements Granted by Offices of the Department of Housing and Urban Development July 1, 2004, Through September 30, 2004 Note to Reader: More information about the granting of these waivers, including a copy of the waiver request and approval, may be obtained by contacting the person whose name is listed as the contact person directly after each set of regulatory waivers granted. The regulatory waivers granted appear in the following order: I. Regulatory waivers granted by the Office of Community Planning and Development II. Regulatory waivers granted by the Office of Housing III. Regulatory waivers granted by the Office of Public and Indian Housing I. Regulatory Waivers Granted by the Office of Community Planning and Development For further information about the following regulatory waivers, please see the name of the contact person that immediately follows the description of the waiver granted. • Regulation: 24 CFR 51.202 and 24 CFR 51.205. Project/Activity: Tellurian UCAN, Inc. of Madison, Wisconsin, proposed to expand an existing mixed-use residential and office building. The existing building is a two-story brick structure with office space on the first floor and seven single room occupancy (SRO) units on the second floor. Nature of Requirements: The proposed site is located approximately 450 feet from a 30,000-gallon, above ground liquid petroleum gas (LPG) storage tank used for fueling taxi fleet. HUD’s Environmental Review regulations in 24 CFR part 51 indicates that acceptable separation distance (ASD) for a project in proximity to a 30,000 gallon LPG tank is 660 feet. Tellurian engaged the engineering services of a consulting firm to evaluate and recommend mitigation measures that would provide adequate blast protection for a building proposed within 450 feet of the 30,000 gallon LPG tank. The firm concluded that the required 0.5 psi value could be safely reduced to 0.14 psi by utilizing a brick veneer and concrete masonry unit (CMU) backup on the front of the proposed building. Granted By: Roy A. Bernardi, Deputy Secretary. E:\FR\FM\12JAN2.SGM 12JAN2 Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 8 / Wednesday, January 12, 2005 / Notices Date Granted: September 28, 2004. Reasons Waived: Section 51.202 of HUD’s regulations provides that ‘‘the Department will not approve an application for assistance for a proposed project located at less than the acceptable separation distance from a hazard unless appropriate mitigating measures, as defined in § 51.205.’’ The waiver of this regulation was granted on the basis of the engineering recommendations of the firm for blast over pressure, by having the existing LPG tank constructed to meet the requirements of the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA 58–Gas Code Handbook) and the State of Wisconsin LPG Code, and by observing that the LPG tank is not in direct line of sight to the proposed structure.

Project/Activity: The State of Oklahoma requested that HUD grant waivers requiring repayment of HOME funds in the event a property does not meet the HOME affordability requirements for the period specified. Nature of Requirements: The Oklahoma Housing Finance Agency (OHFA) proposed to impose HOME requirements on a non-assisted unit for the remaining affordability period of the property that is out of compliance with the HOME final rule. Because the period of affordability established in 24 CFR 92.254 has not been met, OHFA would be required to repay the initial HOME investment amount to the HOME account from which it was drawn, pursuant to 24 CFR 92.503(b). Granted By: Roy A. Bernardi, Deputy Secretary. Date Granted: July 7, 2004. Reason Waived: Oklahoma Housing Finance Agency requested to substitute the HOME assisted unit lost through the fire with the new unit of 1828 South 5th Street. According to the information provided by OHFA, the proposed substitute unit is an eligible property type as described in 92.254(a)(1), met the modest housing requirements at § 92.254(a)(2)(i), will be the principal residence as required by § 92.254(a)(3) and will meet the property standards required by § 92.251(a)(2). The new unit will also be required to remain affordable for the balance of the original five-year period of affordability per § 92.245(a)(4).

Nature of Requirements: The Kentucky Housing Corporation follows the HOME policy guidance provided by the June 2003 HOMEfires regarding the repayment requirements for foreclosed HOME-assisted homebuyer properties that have not met the affordability requirements specified in § 92.254 of the HOME rule. June 2003 HOMEfires explains, if a participating jurisdiction was unaware that the design of its homebuyer program obligated it, in the event of foreclosure, to repay funds in excess of what would be available through the foreclosure, and the participating jurisdiction has since changed its program design to base recapture amounts on net proceeds, a waiver of the repayment requirement under original program design is possible. Granted By: Roy A. Bernardi, Deputy Secretary. Date Granted: July 7, 2004. Reason Waived: The Kentucky Housing Corporation changed its recapture provisions for its homebuyer program. Permitting substitution of comparable units in lieu of repayment when a project fails to meet HOME requirements for the affordability period will maintain the number of affordable housing units available in the community. The proposed unit was determined an acceptable substitution for the HOME unit lost through the fire and subsequent sale of the original HOME-assisted unit. The unit is not a federally assisted unit, but will meet the HOME requirements for the balance of the period of affordability. The proposal will transfer the HOME restrictions from the original HOME-assisted unit to the substitute unit, fulfilling the original HOME requirements.

Project/Activity: The City of Asheville, North Carolina, has requested the use of Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds to acquire and improve a seven-acre site on Brotherton Avenue for the construction of 32 units of co-housing as a mixed community. Nature of Requirements: The regulations at 24 CFR 570.208(a)(3) require 51 percent of the units in a multi-unit structure must be occupied by low- and moderate-income households. Based on the proposed design, three units in each four-plex building and four units in each six-plex building, for a total of 22 of the 32 units, must be occupied by low- and moderate-income households. The regulations allow some flexibility for meeting this national objective when the CDBG assistance supports the new construction of non-elderly rental units and housing units for which funds are obligated during a program year in a Neighborhood Revitalization Strategy Area. Granted By: Roy A. Bernardi, Deputy Secretary. Date Granted: July 6, 2004. Reason Waived: This waiver allowed the city to aggregate the units in the development, and this, in turn, will allow 56 percent of the units to be occupied by low- and moderate-income households. Further approval of the waiver resulted in the development of new affordable housing and increase homeownership for low- and moderate households.

Nature of Requirement: Section 290.30(a) requires that HUD-held multifamily mortgages be sold on a competitive basis, except for certain ‘‘negotiated’’ sales to state or local governments. Granted by: John C. Weicher, Assistant Secretary for Housing-Federal Housing Commissioner. Date Granted: July 30, 2004. Reason Waived: The project owner requested prepayment of the mortgage. However, in lieu of paying off the mortgage directly, the borrower requested that the HUD loan secured by the project be assigned to Washington Mutual Bank for mortgage tax savings purposes. Washington Mutual Bank agreed to this assignment and to pay the full amount of the HUD loan. Contact: Beverly J.

Nature of Requirement: Section 290.30(a) requires that HUD-held multifamily mortgages be sold on a competitive basis, except for certain ‘‘negotiated’’ sales to state or local governments. Granted by: John C. Weicher, Assistant Secretary for Housing-Federal Housing Commissioner. Date Granted: September 13, 2004. Reason Waived: The project owner requested prepayment of the mortgage. However, in lieu of HUD entering into a non-competitive loan sale arrangement, the non-profit sponsor requested a negotiated sale for a price equal to the outstanding mortgage balance. The negotiated sale was determined more beneficial to the community than a competitive note sale to the highest bidder because the sponsor’s purchase of the note ensures a local, continuing involvement in this facility.

Project/Activity: Single Family Property Disposition. Nature of Requirement: Section 291.210(a) permits direct sales without mortgage insurance to governmental entities and private nonprofit organizations at deep discounts off the list price of properties sold for use in HUD and local housing or homeless programs. Section 291.210(c) permits HUD to dispose of HUD-owned single family properties through direct sales to other individuals or entities that do not meet any of the categories specified in this section, if a finding is made by the Assistant Secretary for Housing-Federal Housing Commissioner, or his or her designee, in writing, that such sales would further the goals of the National Housing Act (12 U.S.C. 1701 et seq.) and would be in the best interest of the Secretary. Granted by: John C. Weicher, Assistant Secretary for Housing-Federal Housing Commissioner. Date Granted: September 29, 2004. Reason Waived: A waiver of the requirements of 24 CFR 291.210 (a) was needed in order to provide authority for governmental entities, school districts and private nonprofit organizations to purchase properties offered with mortgage insurance on a direct sales basis and to provide discounts of 50 percent for use in the Teacher Next Door Initiative. Based on HUD’s experience with REO sales, it would not be detrimental to the insurance fund to permit governmental entities, school districts, and private nonprofit organizations to purchase properties offered with mortgage insurance on a direct sales basis or to provide discounts of 50 percent on properties sold for use in the Teacher Next Door Initiative. These sales will be upon such terms and conditions as the Secretary may prescribe. This finding applies to the direct sale of HUD-owned properties to teachers in designated revitalization areas. The Teacher Next Door Initiative gives teachers the opportunity to live and work in communities where they are most needed. The integration of teachers, who are role models and mentors, into a community enhances the community’s quality of life. To date, the program has enabled the Department to dispose of 3,700 properties from its inventory, while providing homeownership to an equivalent number of qualified buyers and supporting residency of employed, E:\FR\FM\12JAN2.SGM 12JAN2 2224 Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 8 / Wednesday, January 12, 2005 / Notices professional teachers in revitalization areas.

Project/Activity: The following projects requested waivers to the simple interest requirement on the second mortgage to allow compound interest at the applicable federal rate. FHA No. Project 07235081 .......................... Bissel Apartments ........................................................................................................................................ Nature of Requirement: Section 401.461 requires that the second mortgages have an interest rate not more than the applicable federal rate. Section 401.461 (b)(1) states that interest will accrue but not compound. The intent of simple interest instead of compound interest is to limit the size of the second mortgage accruals to increase the likelihood of long-term financial and physical integrity. Granted By: John C. Weicher, Assistant Secretary for Housing-Federal Housing Commissioner. Date Granted: August 17,2004. Reason Waived: This regulatory restriction would be construed as a form of federal subsidy, thereby creating a loss of tax credit equity. This loss would adversely affect the ability to close the Restructuring Plan and could cause the loss or deterioration of these affordable housing projects. Therefore, compound interest was necessary for the owner to obtain Low Income Housing Tax Credits under favorable terms and in order to maximize the savings to the Federal Government.

Granted By: Michael Liu, Assistant Secretary for Public and Indian Housing. Date Granted: July 7, 2004. Reason Waived: The PHA received less than $300,000 in federal funds.

Project/Activity: Metropolitan Gardens, Phase II HOPE VI Project AL09URD001I197, Birmingham, AL. Nature of Requirement: Section 941.606(n)(1)(ii)(B) requires that if the partner and/or owner entity (or any other entity with an identity of interest with such parties) wants to serve as a general contractor for the project or development, it may award itself the construction contract only if it can demonstrate to HUD’s satisfaction that its bid is the lowest submitted in response to a public request for bids. Granted By: Michael Liu, Assistant Secretary for Public and Indian Housing Date Granted: August 9, 2004. Reason Waived: The Housing Authority of the Birmingham District (HABD) requested the waiver to use Integral/Doster Metropolitan Gardens Company Incorporated, a joint venture of the Integral Building Group, LLC and Doster Construction Partnership, Inc., as the General Contractor for Phase II. The HABD procured Metropolitan Gardens Developer, LLC, comprised of the Integral Properties, LLC and Sloss Real Estate Group, Inc., as the Master Developer for the revitalization of Metropolitan Gardens. The Integral Building Group is an affiliate of Integral Properties, LLC. Integral/Doster Metropolitan Gardens Construction LLC did not bid to become the general contractor, as specified in the provision of the mixed financed regulation, but HABD provided a demonstration that the construction costs were reasonable and are within HUD requirements. The HABD submitted a third party cost estimate of $14,156,885. The construction cost provided by Integral/ Doster was $14,086,530, and was $70,355 lower than the third party estimate. As the construction contract is less than or equal to the independent PO 00000 Frm 00020 Fmt 4701 Sfmt 4703 cost estimate, the Department granted the waiver.

The CCHRA requested a waiver regarding uncommitted, available vouchers to permit it to attach 19 project-based vouchers to a combined 38-unit project (an 8-unit of supportive housing project and a 30-unit town house project) along with the Moorhead Public Housing Agency. Nature of Requirement: Section 983.3(a)(2) requires that the number of units to be project-based must not be under a tenant-based or project based housing assistance payments (HAP) contract or otherwise committed, e.g., vouchers issued to families searching for housing or units under an agreement to enter into a HAP contract (AHAP). Granted By: Michael Liu, Assistant Secretary for Public and Indian Housing. Date Granted: July 1, 2004. Reason Waived: The regulation was waived because it was confirmed through the CCHRA’s submission of its most recent Voucher Management System report and self-reported leasing data for May and June 2004 that unitmonths leased were declining. Additionally, the Public Housing E:\FR\FM\12JAN2.SGM 12JAN2 Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 8 / Wednesday, January 12, 2005 / Notices Information Center (PIC) data verified adequate turnover to support the availability of the required 19 vouchers at the time of AHAP execution.

The IHA requested a waiver so that it could maintain separate waiting lists for each of its project-based voucher (PBV) projects. Nature of Requirement: Section 983.203(a)(3) requires that a public housing agency (PHA) may use the tenant-based waiting list, a merged waiting list, or a separate PBV waiting list for admission to the PBV program. If a PHA opts to have a separate PBV waiting list, it may use a single waiting list for all PBV projects or may use a separate PBV waiting list for an area not smaller than a county or municipality. Granted By: Michael Liu, Assistant Secretary for Public and Indian Housing. Date Granted: July 21, 2004. Reason Waived: The waiver was granted because section 8(o)(13)(J) of the United States Housing Act of 1937 allows, subject to a PHA’s waiting list policies and selection preferences, the maintenance of separate waiting lists for PBV structures as long as all families on the PHA’s waiting list for PBV assistance can place its name on any of the separate PBV waiting lists. The request was consistent with the statute.

Project/Activity: Detroit Housing Commission (DHC), Detroit, MI. The DHC requested a waiver of competitive selection of owner proposals and deconcentration requirements to permit it to attach PBA to 50 units at Woodbridge Estates. VerDate jul<14>2003 17:47 Jan 11, 2005 Jkt 205001 Nature of Requirement: Section 983.51 requires competitive selection of owner proposals in accordance with a housing authority’s HUD-approved advertisement and unit selection policy. Section II subpart E of the Initial Guidance requires that in order to meet the Department’s goal of deconcentration and expanding housing and economic opportunities, the projects must be in census tracts with poverty rates of less than 20 percent. Granted By: Michael Liu, Assistant Secretary for Public and Indian Housing. Date Granted: July 6, 2004. Reason Waived: Approval to waive competitive selection was granted for this project since the project underwent a competitive process and was awarded Low Income Housing Tax Credits through the Michigan State Housing Development Authority. An exception to the deconcentration requirements was granted since Woodbridge Estates will be located on the former site of Jeffries Homes that had 2,170 public housing units of which 1,873 were demolished. The redeveloped site, which will include Woodbridge Estates, will have 767 units of mixed-income housing. Another 142 units will be developed in areas adjacent to the site. Of the redevelopment units, approximately 30 percent will be market rate and 70 percent will be for lowincome families. A commercial component is planned for the site that will include up to 40,000 square feet of retail space for small commercial businesses. The significant decrease in the number of assisted units at this HOPE VI site and planned on-site commercial development are consistent with the goal of deconcentrating poverty and expanding housing and economic opportunities. Contact: Michael Dennis, Acting Director, Housing Voucher Management and Operations Division, Office of Public Housing and Voucher Programs, Office of Public and Indian Housing, Department of Housing and Urban Development, 451 Seventh Street, SW., Room 4210, Washington, DC 20410, telephone (202) 708–0477. • Regulation: 24 CFR 983.51(a), (b) and (c), and Section II, Subpart E of the January 16,2001, Federal Register Notice, Revisions to PHA Project-Based Assistance (PBA) Program; Initial Guidance (Initial Guidance). Project/Activity: Chicago Housing Authority (CHA), Chicago, IL. The CHA requested a waiver of competitive selection of owner proposals and deconcentration requirements to permit it to attach PBA to 16 units at Liberty Square. PO 00000 Frm 00021 Fmt 4701 Sfmt 4703 2237 Nature of Requirement: Section 983.51 requires competitive selection of owner proposals in accordance with a housing authority’s HUD-approved advertisement and unit selection policy. Section II subpart E of the Initial Guidance requires that in order to meet the Department’s goal of deconcentration and expanding housing and economic opportunities, the projects must be in census tracts with poverty rates of less than 20 percent. Granted By: Michael Liu, Assistant Secretary for Public and Indian Housing. Date Granted: July 14, 2004. Reason Waived: Approval to waive competitive selection was granted for this project since it underwent a competitive process for Low Income Housing Tax Credits through the Illinois State Housing Development Authority and Tax Increment Financing through the City of Chicago’s Department of Housing and the Chicago City Council. An exception to the deconcentration requirements was granted since all of the sites of Liberty Square are within one block of the HUD-designated Empowerment Zone and should derive its benefits. The purpose of establishing empowerment zones is to open new businesses, and create jobs, housing, and new educational and healthcare opportunities for thousands of Americans. Just south of the Liberty Square sites, a newly constructed shopping center with a major supermarket and ten-screen Cineplex movie theatre has been developed. The drop in the poverty rate of East Garfield Park between 1990 and 2000 and the goals of an Empowerment Zone are consistent with the goal of deconcentrating poverty and expanding housing and economic opportunities.

Project/Activity: Warwick Housing Authority (WHA), Warwick, RI. The WHA requested a waiver of competitive selection of owner proposals under the project-based program for the Newport Heights project. The WHA also requested an exception to the initial E:\FR\FM\12JAN2.SGM 12JAN2 2238 Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 8 / Wednesday, January 12, 2005 / Notices guidance for the Newport Heights project that is located in a census tract with a poverty rate greater than 20 percent. Nature of Requirement: Section 983.51 requires competitive selection of owner proposals in accordance with a PHA’s HUD-approved advertisement and unit selection policy. Section II subpart E of the Initial Guidance requires that in order to meet the Department’s goal of deconcentration and expanding housing and economic opportunities, the projects must be in census tracts with poverty rates of less than 20 percent. Granted By: Michael Liu, Assistant Secretary for Public and Indian Housing. Date Granted: July 21, 2004. Reason Waived: Approval to waive competitive selection and related requirements was granted for this project since the developer/partner of the project was competitively selected for two previous federal programs. Approval of the exception for deconcentration was granted since the area of the city where the units would be located has been targeted for revitalization and will be a mixed income, privately managed community. The units are part of a 329-unit HOPE VI site and 70 of the 329 units will be market rate units that are targeted to households earning above 80 percent of area median income. The revitalization plan for the neighborhood in which the units will be located includes the construction of a college and day care center. Additionally, a 14-acre mall has been developed near the Newport Heights site, which has created 400 new jobs available to area residents.

Section II subpart E of the Initial Guidance requires that in order to meet the Department’s goal of deconcentration and expanding housing and economic opportunities, the projects must be in census tracts with poverty rates of less than 20 percent. Granted By: Michael Liu, Assistant Secretary for Public and Indian Housing. Date Granted: July 27, 2004. Reason Waived: Approval to waive competitive selection was granted for this project since the developer/partner of this project participated in a competitive process for bond financing and low income housing tax credits that required stringent selection criteria. An exception to the deconcentration requirements was granted since Belmont Heights Estates Phase III will be located on the former site of adjacent public housing projects, Ponce de Leon Courts and College Hill Homes, which had 1,300 units, all of which were demolished. The redeveloped site, which will include Belmont Heights Estates Phase III, will have 825 rental units of which 57 will be market rate. The decrease of 532 assisted units at this HOPE VI site along with newly developed mixed-income housing, are consistent with the goal of deconcentrating poverty and expanding housing and economic opportunities.

Project/Activity: Goshen Housing Authority (GHA), Goshen, IN. The GHA requested a waiver of competitive selection of owner proposals and the 25 percent cap on the number of units in a building that can have PBA attached to permit it to attach PBA to nine units at Lincoln Avenue Apartments. Nature of Requirement: Section 983.51 requires competitive selection of owner proposals in accordance with a housing authority’s HUD-approved advertisement and unit selection policy. Section II, Subpart F of the Initial Guidance requires that no more than 25 PO 00000 Frm 00022 Fmt 4701 Sfmt 4703 percent of the dwelling units in any building may be assisted under a housing assistance payments (HAP) contract for PBA except for dwelling units that are specifically made available for elderly families, disabled families and families receiving supportive services. Until regulations are promulgated regarding the category of families receiving supportive services, Headquarters has been authorizing implementation of this aspect of the law on a case-by-case basis. Granted By: Michael Liu, Assistant Secretary for Public and Indian Housing. Date Granted: August 9, 2004. Reason Waived: Approval to waive competitive selection was granted for this project since it was competitively awarded funding by the Indiana Housing Finance Authority and the Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis. An exception to the unit cap was granted since the GHA proposed to provide the following supportive services to families living in Lincoln Avenue Apartments: financial literacy; nutrition; family interaction; government and community awareness; job training; and increased health care awareness.

Granted By: Michael Liu, Assistant Secretary for Public and Indian Housing. Date Granted: September 8, 2004. Reason Waived: Approval to waive competitive selection and related requirements was granted for this project since it underwent a competitive process when the RHA selected its HOPE VI development partner. An exception to the deconcentration requirements was granted since within the past ten years, approximately 2,200 new market rate residential units have been built in the census tract and last year, the seven-acre Harbor Gate Shopping Center was completed. South of the Easter Hill site the State Department of Health Services is developing a research facility projected to house 1,000 employees. Another economic development project will be the conversion of the former Ford assembly plant for commercial and industrial use. These activities are consistent with the goal of deconcentration, and expanding housing and economic opportunities.

If a PHA opts to have a separate PBA waiting list, it may use a single waiting list for all PBA projects or may use a separate PBA waiting list for an area not smaller than a county or municipality Granted By: Michael Liu, Assistant Secretary for Public and Indian Housing. Date Granted: September 24, 2004. Reason Waived: Approval to waive competitive selection and related requirements was granted for this project since the developer/partner of the two projects was competitively selected by the SLHA as the HOPE VI partner in accordance with 24 CFR 941.602(d)(1) which requires competitive proposal procedures for qualifications-based procurement. An exception to the deconcentration requirements was granted since the overall revitalization plan for this HOPE VI project was to replace 1,162 public housing units with 229 replacement public housing units, 112 non-public housing Low Income Housing Tax Credit units, 174 market rate rental units and 300 homeownership units for an overall reduction of 521 assisted, lowincome units in the census tract. Approval to waive waiting list requirements was granted since Section 8(o)(13)(J) of the U. S. Housing Act of 1937 allows, subject to a PHA’s waiting list policies and selection preferences, the maintenance of separate waiting lists for PBA structures as long as all families on the PHA’s waiting list for PBA can place their names on any of the separate PBA waiting lists.

The MPHA requested a waiver of a selection preference regulation in order to select Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS (HOPWA)-eligible families to occupy ten of the 28 units that will receive project-based voucher assistance at the Clare Apartments. Nature of Requirement: Section 982.207(b)(3) states that a housing agency may adopt a preference for admission of families that include a person with disabilities, but may not adopt a preference for persons with a specific disability, such as HIV/AIDS Granted By: Michael Liu, Assistant Secretary for Public and Indian Housing. Date Granted: August 12, 2004. Reason Waived: Since by law persons with HIV/AIDS only may occupy units developed with HOPWA funds, a public housing agency may only authorize occupancy of such units that also receive project-based voucher assistance by persons with HIV/AIDS. Therefore, in selecting families to refer to the owner for occupancy of these units, the VerDate jul<14>2003 17:47 Jan 11, 2005 Jkt 205001 MPHA will have to pass over persons on its waiting list until it reaches a person with HIV/AIDS who is interested in moving into one of these units at the Clare Apartments.

The owner of the house wants more than the maximum amount of rent that the shared housing regulations allow. The participant has been diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder and Intermittent Explosive Disorder. These conditions are exacerbated by living in an apartment complex with its constant interactions with other tenants. The participant’s therapist believes that it would be beneficial for him to live in a single-family home with a person he trusts and with whom he can feel safe and secure.

A request was made to permit the Rochester Housing Authority to benefit from energy performance contracting for developments that have resident-paid utilities. The Rochester Housing Authority estimates that it could increase energy savings substantially if it were able to undertake energy performance contracting for its residentpaid utilities. Nature of Requirement: Under 24 CFR part 990, Operating Fund Formula energy conservation incentive that relates to energy performance contracting currently applies to only PHA-paid utilities. The Rochester Housing Authority has resident-paid utilities. Granted By: Michael Liu, Assistant Secretary for Public and Indian Housing. Date Granted: August 27, 2004. Reason Waived: In September 1996, the Oakland Housing Authority was granted a waiver to permit the Authority to benefit from energy performance contracting for developments with resident-paid utilities. The waiver was granted on the basis that the Authority presented a sound and reasonable methodology for doing so. The Rochester Housing Authority requested a waiver based on the same approved methodology. The waiver permits the Authority to exclude from its Performance Funding System (PFS) calculation of rental income the increased rental income due to the difference between updated baseline utility allowances (before implementation of the energy conservation measures) and revised allowances (after implementation of the measures) for the project(s) involved for the duration of the contract period, which cannot exceed 12 years.

Notice of Regulatory Waiver Requests Granted for the Third 
Quarter of Calendar Year 2004

AGENCY: Office of the General Counsel, HUD.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: Section 106 of the Department of Housing and Urban Development 
Reform Act of 1989 (the HUD Reform Act) requires HUD to publish 
quarterly Federal Register notices of all regulatory waivers that HUD 
has approved. Each notice covers the quarterly period since the 
previous Federal Register notice. The purpose of this notice is to 
comply with the requirements of section 106 of the HUD Reform Act. This 
notice contains a list of regulatory waivers granted by HUD during the 
period beginning on July 1, 2004, and ending on September 30, 2004.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For general information about this 
notice, contact Aaron Santa Anna, Assistant General Counsel for 
Regulations, Room 10276, Department of Housing and Urban Development, 
451 Seventh Street, SW., Washington, DC 20410-0500, telephone (202) 
708-3055 (this is not a toll-free number). Persons with hearing-or 
speech-impairments may access this number through TTY by calling the 
toll-free Federal Information Relay Service at 800-877-8339.
    For information concerning a particular waiver that was granted and 
for which public notice is provided in this document, contact the 
person whose name and address follow the description of the waiver 
granted in the accompanying list of waivers that have been granted in 
the third quarter of calendar year 2004.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 106 of the HUD Reform Act added a 
new section 7(q) to the Department of Housing and Urban Development Act 
(42 U.S.C. 3535(q)), which provides that:
    1. Any waiver of a regulation must be in writing and must specify 
the grounds for approving the waiver;
    2. Authority to approve a waiver of a regulation may be delegated 
by the Secretary only to an individual of Assistant Secretary or 
equivalent rank, and the person to whom authority to waive is delegated 
must also have authority to issue the particular regulation to be 
waived;
    3. Not less than quarterly, the Secretary must notify the public of 
all waivers of regulations that HUD has approved, by publishing a 
notice in the Federal Register. These notices (each covering the period 
since the most recent previous notification) shall:
    a. Identify the project, activity, or undertaking involved;
    b. Describe the nature of the provision waived and the designation 
of the provision;
    c. Indicate the name and title of the person who granted the waiver 
request;
    d. Describe briefly the grounds for approval of the request; and
    e. State how additional information about a particular waiver may 
be obtained.
    Section 106 of the HUD Reform Act also contains requirements 
applicable to waivers of HUD handbook provisions that are not relevant 
to the purpose of this notice.
    This notice follows procedures provided in HUD's Statement of 
Policy on Waiver of Regulations and Directives issued on April 22, 1991 
(56 FR 16337). This notice covers waivers of regulations granted by HUD 
from July 1, 2004, through September 30, 2004. For ease of reference, 
the waivers granted by HUD are listed by HUD program office (for 
example, the Office of Community Planning and Development, the Office 
of Fair Housing and Equal Opportunity, the Office of Housing, and the 
Office of Public and Indian Housing, etc.). Within each program office 
grouping, the waivers are listed sequentially by the regulatory section 
of title 24 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) that is being 
waived. For example, a waiver of a provision in 24 CFR part 58 would be 
listed before a waiver of a provision in 24 CFR part 570.
    Where more than one regulatory provision is involved in the grant 
of a particular waiver request, the action is listed under the section 
number of the first regulatory requirement that appears in 24 CFR and 
that is being waived. For example, a waiver of both Sec.  58.73 and 
Sec.  58.74 would appear sequentially in the listing under Sec.  58.73.
    Waiver of regulations that involve the same initial regulatory 
citation are in time sequence beginning with the earliest-dated 
regulatory waiver.
    Should HUD receive additional information about waivers granted 
during the period covered by this report (the third quarter of calendar 
year 2004) before the next report is published, HUD will include any 
additional waivers granted for the third quarter as well as those that 
occur during the fourth quarter of calendar year 2004 (October 1, 2004 
through December 31, 2004).
    Accordingly, information about approved waiver requests pertaining 
to HUD regulations is provided in the Appendix that follows this 
notice.

    Dated: December 28, 2004.
Kathleen D. Koch,

I. Regulatory Waivers Granted by the Office of Community Planning and 
Development

    For further information about the following regulatory waivers, 
please see the name of the contact person that immediately follows the 
description of the waiver granted.
     Regulation: 24 CFR 51.202 and 24 CFR 51.205.
    Project/Activity: Tellurian UCAN, Inc. of Madison, Wisconsin, 
proposed to expand an existing mixed-use residential and office 
building. The existing building is a two-story brick structure with 
office space on the first floor and seven single room occupancy (SRO) 
units on the second floor.
    Nature of Requirements: The proposed site is located approximately 
450 feet from a 30,000-gallon, above ground liquid petroleum gas (LPG) 
storage tank used for fueling taxi fleet. HUD's Environmental Review 
regulations in 24 CFR part 51 indicates that acceptable separation 
distance (ASD) for a project in proximity to a 30,000 gallon LPG tank 
is 660 feet. Tellurian engaged the engineering services of a consulting 
firm to evaluate and recommend mitigation measures that would provide 
adequate blast protection for a building proposed within 450 feet of 
the 30,000 gallon LPG tank. The firm concluded that the required 0.5 
psi value could be safely reduced to 0.14 psi by utilizing a brick 
veneer and concrete masonry unit (CMU) backup on the front of the 
proposed building.
    Granted By: Roy A. Bernardi, Deputy Secretary.

    Date Granted: September 28, 2004.
    Reasons Waived: Section 51.202 of HUD's regulations provides that 
``the Department will not approve an application for assistance for a 
proposed project located at less than the acceptable separation 
distance from a hazard unless appropriate mitigating measures, as 
defined in Sec.  51.205.'' The waiver of this regulation was granted on 
the basis of the engineering recommendations of the firm for blast over 
pressure, by having the existing LPG tank constructed to meet the 
requirements of the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA 58-Gas 
Code Handbook) and the State of Wisconsin LPG Code, and by observing 
that the LPG tank is not in direct line of sight to the proposed 
structure.

Community Planning and Development, Department of Housing and Urban 
Development, 451 Seventh Street, SW., Washington, DC 20410-7000, 
telephone (202) 708-2565.
     Regulations: 24 CFR 92.503(b), 24 CFR 92.252 and 24 CFR 
92.254.
    Project/Activity: The State of Oklahoma requested that HUD grant 
waivers requiring repayment of HOME funds in the event a property does 
not meet the HOME affordability requirements for the period specified.
    Nature of Requirements: The Oklahoma Housing Finance Agency (OHFA) 
proposed to impose HOME requirements on a non-assisted unit for the 
remaining affordability period of the property that is out of 
compliance with the HOME final rule. Because the period of 
affordability established in 24 CFR 92.254 has not been met, OHFA would 
be required to repay the initial HOME investment amount to the HOME 
account from which it was drawn, pursuant to 24 CFR 92.503(b).
    Granted By: Roy A. Bernardi, Deputy Secretary.
    Date Granted: July 7, 2004.
    Reason Waived: Oklahoma Housing Finance Agency requested to 
substitute the HOME assisted unit lost through the fire with the new 
unit of 1828 South 5th Street. According to the information provided by 
OHFA, the proposed substitute unit is an eligible property type as 
described in 92.254(a)(1), met the modest housing requirements at Sec.  
92.254(a)(2)(i), will be the principal residence as required by Sec.  
92.254(a)(3) and will meet the property standards required by Sec.  
92.251(a)(2). The new unit will also be required to remain affordable 
for the balance of the original five-year period of affordability per 
Sec.  92.245(a)(4).
    Contact: Lisa Newman, Office of Field Management, Office of 
Community Planning and Development, Department of Housing and Urban 
Development, 451 Seventh Street, SW, Washington, DC 20410-7000, 
telephone (202) 708-2565.

     Regulation: 24 CFR 92.503(b), 24 CFR 92.254, 24 CFR 
92.503(b)(1), and 24 CFR 92.252
    Project/Activity: The State of Kentucky Housing Corporation (KHC) 
requested waiver of the HOME Program of repayment requirement for 
foreclosed properties established at 24 CFR 92.503(b)(1).
    Nature of Requirements: The Kentucky Housing Corporation follows 
the HOME policy guidance provided by the June 2003 HOMEfires regarding 
the repayment requirements for foreclosed HOME-assisted homebuyer 
properties that have not met the affordability requirements specified 
in Sec.  92.254 of the HOME rule. June 2003 HOMEfires explains, if a 
participating jurisdiction was unaware that the design of its homebuyer 
program obligated it, in the event of foreclosure, to repay funds in 
excess of what would be available through the foreclosure, and the 
participating jurisdiction has since changed its program design to base 
recapture amounts on net proceeds, a waiver of the repayment 
requirement under original program design is possible.
    Granted By: Roy A. Bernardi, Deputy Secretary.
    Date Granted: July 7, 2004.
    Reason Waived: The Kentucky Housing Corporation changed its 
recapture provisions for its homebuyer program. Permitting substitution 
of comparable units in lieu of repayment when a project fails to meet 
HOME requirements for the affordability period will maintain the number 
of affordable housing units available in the community. The proposed 
unit was determined an acceptable substitution for the HOME unit lost 
through the fire and subsequent sale of the original HOME-assisted 
unit. The unit is not a federally assisted unit, but will meet the HOME 
requirements for the balance of the period of affordability. The 
proposal will transfer the HOME restrictions from the original HOME-
assisted unit to the substitute unit, fulfilling the original HOME 
requirements.

Community Planning and Development, Department of Housing and Urban 
Development, 451 Seventh Street, SW, Washington, DC 20410-7000, 
telephone (202) 708-2565.

     Regulation: 24 CFR 570.208(a)(3) and 24 CFR 570.5.
    Project/Activity: The City of Asheville, North Carolina, has 
requested the use of Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds to 
acquire and improve a seven-acre site on Brotherton Avenue for the 
construction of 32 units of co-housing as a mixed community.
    Nature of Requirements: The regulations at 24 CFR 570.208(a)(3) 
require 51 percent of the units in a multi-unit structure must be 
occupied by low- and moderate-income households. Based on the proposed 
design, three units in each four-plex building and four units in each 
six-plex building, for a total of 22 of the 32 units, must be occupied 
by low- and moderate-income households. The regulations allow some 
flexibility for meeting this national objective when the CDBG 
assistance supports the new construction of non-elderly rental units 
and housing units for which funds are obligated during a program year 
in a Neighborhood Revitalization Strategy Area.
    Granted By: Roy A. Bernardi, Deputy Secretary.
    Date Granted: July 6, 2004.
    Reason Waived: This waiver allowed the city to aggregate the units 
in the development, and this, in turn, will allow 56 percent of the 
units to be occupied by low- and moderate-income households. Further 
approval of the waiver resulted in the development of new affordable 
housing and increase homeownership for low- and moderate households.

    Nature of Requirement: Section 200.40 establishes fees to be 
applied to M2M transactions with FHA insured mortgages. The intent of 
this provision is to provide an extra incentive to encourage owner 
cooperation with the process in a timely manner.
    Granted By: John C. Weicher, Assistant Secretary for Housing-
Federal Housing Commissioner.
    Date Granted: September 22, 2004.
    Reason Waived: The projects listed above were FHA insured and 
incentives were necessary to encourage cooperation.
    Contact: Norman Dailey, Office of Affordable Housing Preservation, 
Department of Housing and Urban Development, 451 Seventh Street, SW, 
Washington, DC 20410, telephone (202) 708-0614.

     Regulation: 24 CFR 290.30(a).
    Project/Activity: 658 Montgomery Street, Project Number: 012-35199.
    Nature of Requirement: Section 290.30(a) requires that HUD-held 
multifamily mortgages be sold on a competitive basis, except for 
certain ``negotiated'' sales to state or local governments.
    Granted by: John C. Weicher, Assistant Secretary for Housing-
Federal Housing Commissioner.
    Date Granted: July 30, 2004.
    Reason Waived: The project owner requested prepayment of the 
mortgage. However, in lieu of paying off the mortgage directly, the 
borrower requested that the HUD loan secured by the project be assigned 
to Washington Mutual Bank for mortgage tax savings purposes. Washington 
Mutual Bank agreed to this assignment and to pay the full amount of the 
HUD loan.

     Regulation: 24 CFR 290.30(a).
    Project/Activity: 349 Crown Street, Project Number: 012-35201.
    Nature of Requirement: Section 290.30(a) requires that HUD-held 
multifamily mortgages be sold on a competitive basis, except for 
certain ``negotiated'' sales to state or local governments.
    Granted by: John C. Weicher, Assistant Secretary for Housing-

    Project/Activity: Hilltop Gardens, Project Number 051-EH002.
    Nature of Requirement: Section 290.30(a) requires that HUD-held 
multifamily mortgages be sold on a competitive basis, except for 
certain ``negotiated'' sales to state or local governments.
    Granted by: John C. Weicher, Assistant Secretary for Housing-
Federal Housing Commissioner.
    Date Granted: September 13, 2004.
    Reason Waived: The project owner requested prepayment of the 
mortgage. However, in lieu of HUD entering into a non-competitive loan 
sale arrangement, the non-profit sponsor requested a negotiated sale 
for a price equal to the outstanding mortgage balance. The negotiated 
sale was determined more beneficial to the community than a competitive 
note sale to the highest bidder because the sponsor's purchase of the 
note ensures a local, continuing involvement in this facility.

     Regulation: 24 CFR 291.210(a).
    Project/Activity: Single Family Property Disposition.
    Nature of Requirement: Section 291.210(a) permits direct sales 
without mortgage insurance to governmental entities and private 
nonprofit organizations at deep discounts off the list price of 
properties sold for use in HUD and local housing or homeless programs. 
Section 291.210(c) permits HUD to dispose of HUD-owned single family 
properties through direct sales to other individuals or entities that 
do not meet any of the categories specified in this section, if a 
finding is made by the Assistant Secretary for Housing-Federal Housing 
Commissioner, or his or her designee, in writing, that such sales would 
further the goals of the National Housing Act (12 U.S.C. 1701 et seq.) 
and would be in the best interest of the Secretary.
    Granted by: John C. Weicher, Assistant Secretary for Housing-
Federal Housing Commissioner.
    Date Granted: September 29, 2004.
    Reason Waived: A waiver of the requirements of 24 CFR 291.210 (a) 
was needed in order to provide authority for governmental entities, 
school districts and private nonprofit organizations to purchase 
properties offered with mortgage insurance on a direct sales basis and 
to provide discounts of 50 percent for use in the Teacher Next Door 
Initiative. Based on HUD's experience with REO sales, it would not be 
detrimental to the insurance fund to permit governmental entities, 
school districts, and private nonprofit organizations to purchase 
properties offered with mortgage insurance on a direct sales basis or 
to provide discounts of 50 percent on properties sold for use in the 
Teacher Next Door Initiative. These sales will be upon such terms and 
conditions as the Secretary may prescribe. This finding applies to the 
direct sale of HUD-owned properties to teachers in designated 
revitalization areas. The Teacher Next Door Initiative gives teachers 
the opportunity to live and work in communities where they are most 
needed. The integration of teachers, who are role models and mentors, 
into a community enhances the community's quality of life. To date, the 
program has enabled the Department to dispose of 3,700 properties from 
its inventory, while providing homeownership to an equivalent number of 
qualified buyers and supporting residency of employed,

     Regulation: 24 CFR 401.461.
    Project/Activity: The following projects requested waivers to the 
simple interest requirement on the second mortgage to allow compound 
interest at the applicable federal rate.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Nature of Requirement: Section 401.461 requires that the second 
mortgages have an interest rate not more than the applicable federal 
rate. Section 401.461 (b)(1) states that interest will accrue but not 
compound. The intent of simple interest instead of compound interest is 
to limit the size of the second mortgage accruals to increase the 
likelihood of long-term financial and physical integrity.
    Granted By: John C. Weicher, Assistant Secretary for Housing-
Federal Housing Commissioner.
    Date Granted: August 17,2004.
    Reason Waived: This regulatory restriction would be construed as a 
form of federal subsidy, thereby creating a loss of tax credit equity. 
This loss would adversely affect the ability to close the Restructuring 
Plan and could cause the loss or deterioration of these affordable 
housing projects. Therefore, compound interest was necessary for the 
owner to obtain Low Income Housing Tax Credits under favorable terms 
and in order to maximize the savings to the Federal Government.

    Nature of Requirement: Section 401.600 requires that projects be 
marked down to market rents within 12 months of their first expiration 
date after January 1, 1998. The intent of this provision is to ensure 
timely processing of requests for restructuring and that the properties

restructuring process.
    Granted By: John C. Weicher, Assistant Secretary for Housing-
Federal Housing Commissioner.
    Date Granted: July 12, 2004.
    Reason Waived: The projects listed above were not assigned to the 
participating administrative entities (PAEs) in a timely manner and 
therefore the restructuring analysis was unavoidably delayed due to no 
fault of the owner.
