AGENCY:
SUMMARY: This final notice provides
information to public housing agencies
(PHAs) and members of the public about
HUD’s process for issuing scores under
the Financial Condition Indicator of the
Public Housing Assessment System
(PHAS). This notice includes revised
threshold values and associated points/
scores for the expense management
component of the Financial Condition
Indicator based on available data for
PHAs with fiscal years ending March
31, 2004, June 30, 2004, September 30,
2004, and December 31, 2004. The data
analyzed is based on generally accepted
accounting principles (GAAP)
information submitted by PHAs as part
of the financial data schedule
submission.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
HUD published the first Public
Housing Assessment System; Financial
Condition Scoring Process notice in the
Federal Register on May 13, 1999 (64
FR 26222). HUD republished the notice
to coincide with the June 22, 1999,
publication of the PHAS proposed rule.
Subsequently, HUD revised the notice
twice to reflect additional changes to the
financial scoring process. The third
notice was published on June 28, 2000
(65 FR 40008), and the fourth notice was
published on December 21, 2000 (65 FR
80685). This notice is an update of the
financial condition scoring process
notice published on December 21, 2000.
In the December 21, 2000, notice HUD
stated that any changes to the scoring
process and any modifications to the
thresholds would be communicated
through a subsequent Federal Register
notice. Accordingly, this notice updates
the December 21, 2000, notice and
provides information on the revisions
made to the financial condition scoring
process. HUD revised the thresholds
based on a full year’s worth of
unaudited and available audited
financial information.
This change has been made in
accordance with the threshold
revaluation schedule set forth in the
December 21, 2000, notice. The
December 21, 2000, notice stated that
the thresholds established in that notice
would remain in effect for all unaudited
and audited PHA financial submissions
for PHAs for a three year period, unless
REAC found a need for revisions. In
October 2001, July 2003, November
2004, and May 2005, REAC conducted
an analysis of the thresholds established
in the December 21, 2000, notice and
determined not to revise the established
thresholds. In August 2005 another
analysis was conducted of the threshold
established in the December 21, 2000,
notice and it was determined that a
revision to the expense management
component was warranted.
II. Discussion of Public Comments
There were three comments received
on the May 2, 2006, notice, two from
public housing industry groups and one
from a PHA. Several of the issues
addressed in the comments pertained to
future Financial Condition Indicator

changes as a result of asset management
and project based accounting and
budgeting, as well as related changes to
PHAS. Those comments that were not
directly related to the revision of the
expense management component as set
forth in the May 2, 2006, notice are not
addressed in this final notice.
Comment: One commenter suggested
that the entire Financial Condition
Indicator be suspended until a new,
project-specific indicator is developed.
Until that time, REAC may wish to
continue providing scores on the
indicator but these scores should be
advisory only.
HUD Response: HUD disagrees that
the Financial Condition Indicator
should be suspended until a new
indicator is developed that addresses
project based accounting and budgeting,
and asset management. With HUD’s
focus on asset management and project
based accounting and budgeting, HUD
realizes that there is a need for property
based assessments and will develop a
revised Public Housing Assessment
System (PHAS) to accommodate asset
management. Until that time, HUD will
continue to score the Financial
Condition Indicator, and the indicator
score will be part of the overall PHAS
score.
Comment: One commenter stated that
the thresholds for the expense
management component, published on
May 2, 2006, demonstrates that these
have not been revised frequently enough
over the past several years, and felt that
more frequent reevaluations will be
even more critical when the new
funding formula is put in place
beginning in 2007. Another commenter
stated that the revision to the expense
management component is long
overdue, and these thresholds should be
analyzed and indexed on an annual
basis.
HUD Response: The financial
indicator scoring thresholds have been
reevaluated in October 2001, July 2003,
November 2004, May 2005 and August
2005. HUD determined that there was a
need for revision as a result of the
August 2005 analysis. HUD will
continue to evaluate the thresholds and
provide revisions as needed, at a
maximum of every three years.
Comment: One commenter stated that
the proposed rule calls for the use of
total units available to determine the
size category, but HUD’s automated
E:\FR\FM\17JYN1.SGM
17JYN1
Federal Register / Vol. 71, No. 136 / Monday, July 17, 2006 / Notices
system appears to utilize total units
leased instead.
HUD Response: Peer groupings are
established according to the size of the
PHA, based on the total number of units
operated by the PHA, for all programs
and activities. Accordingly, the
Financial Condition Indicator of PHAS
calculates the peer groupings based on
the PHA’s financial data schedule (FDS)
input for line 1120, units months
available. FDS line 1120 is defined as
the number of months available for all
low rent, Section 8, and other
subsidized units except those unit
months vacant due to demolition,
conversion, ongoing modernization, and
units approved for non-dwelling
purposes. After the PHA’s peer group
size has been determined, scoring for
the six financial components of the
Financial Condition Indicator are based
on the threshold value for the PHA’s
size as discussed, above. Expense
management/utility consumption
measures the PHA’s ability to manage
key areas of its annual expenditures at
a level relative to its peers, adjusted for
size and geographic location. This
component compares summary
expenditures to unit months leased for
the fiscal year for the Low-Rent Public
Housing Program only. Total routine
expenses measured include the
following six expense categories:
Administrative, tenant services,
utilities, ordinary maintenance and
operation, protective services, and
general expenses. The summed number
is compared to the threshold for the
PHA’s size as discussed, above, and
regional peer group. This component
enables PHA management to determine
if the per unit cost is reasonable or if
unnecessary operating expenditures
should be reduced and/or further
analyzed.
III. Appendix 2, Expense Management,
Revision
The analysis of the thresholds
conducted in August 2005 is based on
the financial information submitted by
PHAs with fiscal years ending March
31, 2004, June 30, 2004, September 30,
2004, and December 31, 2004. As a
result of this analysis, it was determined
that a revision to the expense
management thresholds was warranted,
but not to the remaining component
thresholds for current ratio, months
expendable fund balance, tenants
receivable outstanding, occupancy loss
and net income and loss. The thresholds
for the five financial condition
components that will not be changed are
included in Appendix 2, Thresholds for
Entity-Wide GAAP Scoring, of the
December 21, 2000, Public Housing
40535
Assessment System; Financial
Condition Scoring Process. The table,
below, includes the new thresholds for
expense management.
The revised expense management
thresholds included in this notice, and
the remaining five component
thresholds included in the December 21,
2000, financial condition notice, which
are based on a full year of unaudited
and audited financial data based on
GAAP, will remain in effect for all
unaudited and audited PHA financial
submissions for PHAs with fiscal year
end on or after September 30, 2006, for
a three year period, unless the REAC
finds a need for revisions. Any revisions
to the thresholds will be communicated
through a notice.
The expense management table can be
interpreted in the following manner:
• Identify a size category for expense
management;
• The rows under that size category
identify ranges of possible values for
expense management; and
• The column to the right labeled
‘‘Points/Score’’ identifies the points/
scores that is awarded to each expense
management value for that size category.
The thresholds presented here have
been rounded for presentation purposes,
whereas those used to calculate scores
at the REAC are not rounded.

SUMMARY: This final notice provides information to public housing
agencies (PHAs) and members of the public about HUD's process for
issuing scores under the Financial Condition Indicator of the Public

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
HUD published the first Public Housing Assessment System; Financial
Condition Scoring Process notice in the Federal Register on May 13,
1999 (64 FR 26222). HUD republished the notice to coincide with the
June 22, 1999, publication of the PHAS proposed rule. Subsequently, HUD
revised the notice twice to reflect additional changes to the financial
scoring process. The third notice was published on June 28, 2000 (65 FR
40008), and the fourth notice was published on December 21, 2000 (65 FR
80685). This notice is an update of the financial condition scoring
process notice published on December 21, 2000. In the December 21,
2000, notice HUD stated that any changes to the scoring process and any
modifications to the thresholds would be communicated through a
subsequent Federal Register notice. Accordingly, this notice updates
the December 21, 2000, notice and provides information on the revisions
made to the financial condition scoring process. HUD revised the
thresholds based on a full year's worth of unaudited and available
audited financial information.
This change has been made in accordance with the threshold
revaluation schedule set forth in the December 21, 2000, notice. The
December 21, 2000, notice stated that the thresholds established in
that notice would remain in effect for all unaudited and audited PHA
financial submissions for PHAs for a three year period, unless REAC
found a need for revisions. In October 2001, July 2003, November 2004,
and May 2005, REAC conducted an analysis of the thresholds established
in the December 21, 2000, notice and determined not to revise the
established thresholds. In August 2005 another analysis was conducted
of the threshold established in the December 21, 2000, notice and it
was determined that a revision to the expense management component was
warranted.
II. Discussion of Public Comments
There were three comments received on the May 2, 2006, notice, two
from public housing industry groups and one from a PHA. Several of the
issues addressed in the comments pertained to future Financial
Condition Indicator changes as a result of asset management and project
based accounting and budgeting, as well as related changes to PHAS.
Those comments that were not directly related to the revision of the
expense management component as set forth in the May 2, 2006, notice
are not addressed in this final notice.
Comment: One commenter suggested that the entire Financial
Condition Indicator be suspended until a new, project-specific
indicator is developed. Until that time, REAC may wish to continue
providing scores on the indicator but these scores should be advisory
only.
HUD Response: HUD disagrees that the Financial Condition Indicator
should be suspended until a new indicator is developed that addresses
project based accounting and budgeting, and asset management. With
HUD's focus on asset management and project based accounting and
budgeting, HUD realizes that there is a need for property based
assessments and will develop a revised Public Housing Assessment System
(PHAS) to accommodate asset management. Until that time, HUD will
continue to score the Financial Condition Indicator, and the indicator
score will be part of the overall PHAS score.
Comment: One commenter stated that the thresholds for the expense
management component, published on May 2, 2006, demonstrates that these
have not been revised frequently enough over the past several years,
and felt that more frequent reevaluations will be even more critical
when the new funding formula is put in place beginning in 2007. Another
commenter stated that the revision to the expense management component
is long overdue, and these thresholds should be analyzed and indexed on
an annual basis.
HUD Response: The financial indicator scoring thresholds have been
reevaluated in October 2001, July 2003, November 2004, May 2005 and
August 2005. HUD determined that there was a need for revision as a
result of the August 2005 analysis. HUD will continue to evaluate the
thresholds and provide revisions as needed, at a maximum of every three
years.
Comment: One commenter stated that the proposed rule calls for the
use of total units available to determine the size category, but HUD's
automated
[[Page 40535]]
system appears to utilize total units leased instead.
HUD Response: Peer groupings are established according to the size
of the PHA, based on the total number of units operated by the PHA, for
all programs and activities. Accordingly, the Financial Condition
Indicator of PHAS calculates the peer groupings based on the PHA's
financial data schedule (FDS) input for line 1120, units months
available. FDS line 1120 is defined as the number of months available
for all low rent, Section 8, and other subsidized units except those
unit months vacant due to demolition, conversion, ongoing
modernization, and units approved for non-dwelling purposes. After the
PHA's peer group size has been determined, scoring for the six
financial components of the Financial Condition Indicator are based on
the threshold value for the PHA's size as discussed, above. Expense
management/utility consumption measures the PHA's ability to manage key
areas of its annual expenditures at a level relative to its peers,
adjusted for size and geographic location. This component compares
summary expenditures to unit months leased for the fiscal year for the
Low-Rent Public Housing Program only. Total routine expenses measured
include the following six expense categories: Administrative, tenant
services, utilities, ordinary maintenance and operation, protective
services, and general expenses. The summed number is compared to the
threshold for the PHA's size as discussed, above, and regional peer
group. This component enables PHA management to determine if the per
unit cost is reasonable or if unnecessary operating expenditures should
be reduced and/or further analyzed.
III. Appendix 2, Expense Management, Revision
The analysis of the thresholds conducted in August 2005 is based on
the financial information submitted by PHAs with fiscal years ending
March 31, 2004, June 30, 2004, September 30, 2004, and December 31,
2004. As a result of this analysis, it was determined that a revision
to the expense management thresholds was warranted, but not to the
remaining component thresholds for current ratio, months expendable
fund balance, tenants receivable outstanding, occupancy loss and net
income and loss. The thresholds for the five financial condition
components that will not be changed are included in Appendix 2,
Thresholds for Entity-Wide GAAP Scoring, of the December 21, 2000,
Public Housing Assessment System; Financial Condition Scoring Process.
The table, below, includes the new thresholds for expense management.
The revised expense management thresholds included in this notice,
and the remaining five component thresholds included in the December
21, 2000, financial condition notice, which are based on a full year of
unaudited and audited financial data based on GAAP, will remain in
effect for all unaudited and audited PHA financial submissions for PHAs
with fiscal year end on or after September 30, 2006, for a three year
period, unless the REAC finds a need for revisions. Any revisions to
the thresholds will be communicated through a notice.
The expense management table can be interpreted in the following
manner:
Identify a size category for expense management;
The rows under that size category identify ranges of
possible values for expense management; and
The column to the right labeled ``Points/Score''
identifies the points/scores that is awarded to each expense management
value for that size category.
The thresholds presented here have been rounded for presentation
purposes, whereas those used to calculate scores at the REAC are not
rounded.
