A. Public Comment on the AFHMP Forms and HUD’s Responses Comments The commenter stated that the singlefamily form 935.2B is ineffective because the form cannot be used for activities occurring outside of a fixed census tract. The commenter suggests that the form be revised to contemplate activities that offer tenants a choice in housing location such as Tenant Based Rental Assistance or down payment assistance. The commenter further stated that the AFHMP forms should include the 16 racial categories reported to HUD as required by the Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008. HUD response: HUD appreciates the commenter’s views and input. HUD notes that the forms were not intended for use for tenant-based rental assistance and down payment assistance programs and declines to make revisions to allow for the use of the forms for such programs at this time.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

The 60-Day Notice for the AFHMP Forms

    On December 5, 2016, at 81 FR 87581, HUD published its 60-day 
notice, the first notice for public comment required by the PRA, to 
commence the process for renewal of the AFHMP Forms. The 60-day public 
comment period ended on February 3, 2017, and HUD received one public 
comment. The following section, Section A, responds to the issues 
raised by the public commenter, and Section B provides HUD's estimation 
of the burden hours associated with the AFHMP forms, and further 
solicits issues for public comment which are required to be solicited 
by the PRA.

Submission Requirements

    Under the AFHM Regulations (24 CFR part 200, subpart M), all 
applicants for participation in Federal Housing Administration (FHA) 
subsidized and unsubsidized housing programs that involve the 
development or rehabilitation of multifamily projects or manufactured 
home parks of five or more lots, units, or spaces must submit an AFHM 
Plan on a prescribed form. In addition, all applicants for 
participation in FHA subsidized and unsubsidized housing programs that 
involve the development or rehabilitation of single family housing or 
condominium or cooperative units that intend to sell five or more 
properties in the next year, or sold five or more properties in the 
past year, and where a lender is submitting initial applications for 
HUD mortgage insurance, must submit one of several agreements or 
statements, among which is an AFHM Plan on a prescribed form.

A. Public Comment on the AFHMP Forms and HUD's Responses

Comments
    The commenter stated that the single-family form 935.2B is 
ineffective because the form cannot be used for activities occurring 
outside of a fixed census tract. The commenter suggests that the form 
be revised to contemplate activities that offer tenants a choice in 
housing location such as Tenant Based Rental Assistance or down payment 
assistance. The commenter further stated that the AFHMP forms should 
include the 16 racial categories reported to HUD as required by the 
Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008.
    HUD response: HUD appreciates the commenter's views and input. HUD 
notes that the forms were not intended for use for tenant-based rental 
assistance and down payment assistance programs and declines to make 
revisions to allow for the use of the forms for such programs at this 
time. In regard to the commenter's concern that the form does not 
include all 16 racial categories that are reported to HUD under other 
programs, HUD notes that the form includes the five minimum racial 
categories required by OMB for the collection and presentation of 
federal data on race. The Department declines to add the additional 
racial categories at this time.

B. Overview of Information Collection

    Under the PRA, HUD is required to report the following:
    Title of Information Collection: Affirmative Fair Housing Marketing 
Plan.
    OMB Approval Number: 2529-0013.
    Type of Request: Reinstatement without change, of previously 
approved collection for which approval has expired.
    Form Number: HUD-935.2A, 935.2B, 935.2C.
    Description of the need for the information and proposed use: The 
Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) is requesting that 
the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) approve the extension of 
forms: HUD-935.2A Affirmative Fair Housing Marketing Plan--Multifamily 
Housing, HUD-935.2B Affirmative Fair Housing Marketing Plan--Single 
Family Housing, and HUD-935.2C Affirmative Fair Housing Marketing 
Plan--Condominiums or Cooperatives. These forms assist HUD in 
fulfilling its duty under the Fair Housing Act to administer its 
programs and activities relating to housing and urban development in a 
manner that affirmatively furthers fair housing, by promoting a 
condition in which individuals of similar income levels in the same 
housing market area have available to them a like range of housing 
choices, regardless of race, color, national origin, religion, sex, 
disability, or familial status. This collection also promotes 
compliance with Executive Order 11063, which requires Federal agencies 
to take all necessary and appropriate action to prevent discrimination 
in federally insured and subsidized housing. Under the AFHM Regulations 
(24 CFR part 200, subpart M), all applicants for participation in 
Federal Housing Administration (FHA) subsidized and unsubsidized 
housing programs that involve the development or rehabilitation of 
multifamily projects or manufactured home parks of five or more lots, 
units, or spaces must submit an AFHM Plan on a prescribed form. In 
addition, all applicants for participation in FHA subsidized and 
unsubsidized housing programs that involve the development or 
rehabilitation of single family housing or condominium or cooperative 
units that intend to sell five or more properties in the next year, or 
sold five or more properties in the past year, and where a lender is 
submitting initial applications for HUD mortgage insurance, must submit 
one of several agreements or statements, among which is an AFHM Plan on 
a prescribed form. If this information was not collected, it would 
prevent HUD from ensuring compliance with affirmative fair housing 
marketing requirements.
    Respondents: Applicants for FHA subsidized and unsubsidized housing 
programs.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 8,080 (HUD 935.2A: On an annual

plans, and 3,720 respondents that review their existing plans, but are 
not required to submit updated plans. HUD 935.2.B & C: On an annual 
basis, there are approximately 30 respondents that submit new plans.)
