Jkt 235001
Section 8(c)(1) of the United
States Housing Act of 1937 (USHA)
requires the Secretary to publish FMRs
periodically, but not less than annually,
adjusted to be effective on October 1 of
each year. The primary uses of FMRs are
to determine payment standards for the
Housing Choice Voucher (HCV)
program, to determine initial renewal
rents for some expiring project-based
Section 8 contracts, to determine initial
rents for housing assistance payment
contracts in the Moderate Rehabilitation
Single Room Occupancy program, and
to serve as rent ceilings for rental
assistance units in the HOME
Investment Partnerships program. FMRs
are used in the calculation of maximum
award amounts for Continuum of Care
grantees and are also used in the
calculation of flat rents in Public
Housing units. Today’s notice provides
proposed FY 2016 FMRs for all areas
that reflect the estimated 40th and 50th
percentile rent levels trended to April 1,
2016. The FY 2016 FMRs are based on
‘‘5-year’’ data collected by the American
Community Survey (ACS) from 2009
through 2013. These data are updated
by one-year 2013 ACS data for areas
where statistically valid one-year ACS
data is available. HUD continues to use
ACS data in different ways according to
the statistical reliability of rent
estimates. The Consumer Price Index
(CPI) rent and utility indexes are used
to further update the data to 2014. These
values are then trended forward to FY
2016 using the annualized change in
median gross rents as measured across
the most recent 5 years of available 1
year ACS data. While HUD will
continue to use this trend factor for the
calculation of FY 2016 FMRs, the
Department is considering replacing it
with a forward-looking forecast for the
FY 2017 FMRs. For example, HUD is
evaluating the use of a model that
would forecast national rent and utility
CPI indices based on economic
assumptions used in the formulation of
the President’s Budget. HUD seeks
public comments on this or alternative
PO 00000

methodologies, as well as other data
sources, for trending rent levels forward.
The proposed FY 2016 FMRs in this
notice incorporate a change in the level
of statistical reliability that is allowed
for an ACS estimate to be used in the
calculation of FMRs. Previously, if the
error of the estimate was less than the
estimate itself, HUD used the estimate.
The Proposed FMRs in this notice use
ACS estimates where the size of the
error is limited to half of the estimate.
An additional change to the proposed
FY 2016 FMRs is the incorporation of
the February 28, 2013, Office of
Management and Budget (OMB)
metropolitan area definition update
based on the 2010 Decennial Census
data. The 2013 ACS data are the first to
use the new area definitions in the
compilation of the ACS data.
In a June 2, 2015 advanced notice of
proposed rulemaking, HUD solicited
comments on several topics related to
the calculation of FMRs, including
possible measures the Department is
considering that would reduce the
concentration of Section 8 voucher
tenants. For example, HUD is evaluating
alternatives to the current 50th
percentile FMR program, which was
implemented to mitigate excessive
geographic concentration of voucher
tenants. Comments were requested to
determine interest in a program that is
based on different measures for
determining how many and which areas
would receive special FMRs to
encourage deconcentration, as well as
on alternative FMR-based tools for
promoting deconcentration, such as
Small Area FMRs estimated at the ZIP
code level. The Department appreciates
the comments provided and is currently
analyzing this input to inform the next
steps in the rulemaking process. For the
FY 2016 FMRs, however, the current
50th percentile FMR program is still in
place with no change to existing
regulations.
DATES: Comment Due Date: October 8,
2015.
ADDRESSES: Interested persons are
invited to submit comments regarding
the proposed FMRs to the Regulations
Division, Office of General Counsel,
Department of Housing and Urban
Development, 451 Seventh Street SW.,
Room 10276, Washington, DC 20410–
0001. Communications must refer to the
above docket number and title and
should contain the information
specified in the ‘‘Request for
Comments’’ section. There are two
methods for submitting public
comments.
1. Submission of Comments by Mail.
