B. Solicitation of Public Comment
This notice is soliciting comments
from members of the public and affected
parties concerning the collection of
information described in this notice on
the following:
(1) Whether the proposed collection
of information is necessary for the
proper performance of the functions of
the agency, including whether the
information will have practical utility.
(2) The accuracy of the agency’s
estimate of the burden of the proposed
collection of information.
(3) Ways to enhance the quality,
utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected or any content of the
Closing Documents.
(4) Ways to minimize the burden of
the collection of information on those
who are to respond; including through
the use of appropriate automated
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology, e.g., permitting
electronic submission of responses.
(5) With respect to the Construction
Contract (HUD–92442M) and the HUD
Amendment to AIA Document B108
(HUD–92408–M) (‘‘Owner-Architect
Agreement’’), are there states with
attorney fee shifting statutes that favor
contractors and/or architects, such that
contractors and/or architects are
awarded attorney’s fees when they
prevail against owners in litigation, but
owners who prevail are not similarly
awarded attorney’s fees unless there is
VerDate Mar<15>2010
18:15 Oct 28, 2013
Jkt 232001
an explicit provision for such awards in
the construction contract or ownerarchitect agreement? If so, does this
create an imbalance between the parties
that HUD should address in these form
documents? Further, irrespective of
whether such state fee shifting statutes
exist, should the Construction Contract
(HUD–92442M) and the HUD
Amendment to AIA Document B108
(HUD–92408–M) be revised to include a
provision allowing attorney fees to the
prevailing party in litigation?
(6) Whether the new form,
Consolidated Certifications—Borrower
(HUD–91070M), improves efficiency by
consolidating all the certifications the
borrower is required to make in a single
form.
(7) Whether the new form, Escrow
Agreement for Off-site Facilities (HUD–
91071M), effectively streamlines,
updates and standardizes an outdated
and difficult to locate form used in
certain situations when there is required
work to be performed away from the
HUD project site by combining HUD’s
requirements for the escrow for off-site
work with the more modern approach
taken in HUD’s other escrow forms used
in FHA-insured multifamily rental
closings.
HUD encourages interested parties to
submit comment in response to these
questions.

Reduction Act of 1995, 44 U.S.C. Chapter 35.
