ACTION:
Notice.
SUMMARY: In 2004, HUD established the
Robert L. Woodson, Jr., Award
(Woodson Award) as an annual award
program of America’s Affordable
Communities Initiative. The award
program was established to recognize
state and local governments for
excellence in providing affordable
housing through regulatory reduction.
Through this notice, HUD announces its
intention to alter the award process in
order to provide more flexibility in the
nomination and selection of award
recipients. HUD intends to eliminate
time restrictions for submitting
applications that nominate jurisdictions
for exhibiting outstanding leadership in
reducing regulatory burden. This notice
would eliminate the current time
restrictions for submitting applications
for the Woodson Award. This notice
would allow applications to be
submitted at any time during the
calendar year, and allow HUD to
announce Woodson Award winners at
any time during the year. This added
flexibility should help encourage
creativity in reducing regulatory barriers
to affordable housing.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In 2003,
HUD established America’s Affordable
Communities Initiative (AACI) as a
departmentwide effort designed to help
communities across America identify
and overcome regulatory barriers that
impede the availability of affordable
housing, as well as help HUD identify
its own regulations that present barriers
to the development of affordable
housing. The Robert L. Woodson, Jr.,
Award, named in memory and in honor
of HUD’s late Chief of Staff, is designed
to recognize state and local governments
that aggressively work toward and have
had success in the reduction of
regulatory barriers to affordable
housing.
The award program currently
provides for nominations of
jurisdictions to be submitted on an
annual basis in March, with
nominations reviewed and jurisdictions
selected for awards generally by June of
each year. In the first 2 years of the
award program, one state agency and 17
communities from across the country
received the Woodson Award.
As HUD reaches out to communities
throughout the year, through AACI or
other HUD initiatives, it strives to
encourage efforts and activities to bring
affordable housing within reach of all
Americans. HUD has decided that it
would be better to honor communities
for being successful in regulatory reform
at various times of the year, rather than
only annually. HUD believes that a more
frequent focus on states and
communities that have successfully
increased the supply of affordable
housing through regulatory reform will
better promote awareness of the
effectiveness of this policy priority in
creating affordable housing
opportunities. The change may also
help maintain an active national
discussion of this important subject. In
addition, the more immediate
dissemination of the successful steps
taken by the honorees to expand
affordable housing may also be of
immediate assistance to other
communities exploring similar ideas.

This notice announces that,
commencing with Fiscal Year 2007
(which begins October 1, 2006), state
and local governments can be
nominated for and receive a Woodson
Award at any point during the year. In
addition to the benefits that HUD sees
through this change in the award
program, HUD also believes that it will
reduce the burden on those who desire
to nominate state and local governments
by eliminating the time constraints
imposed by a set application date. This
change will enable jurisdictions to
apply for an award when they are best
prepared to do so.

Robert L. Woodson, Jr., Award program,

Initiative can be found at https://
