A. Overview of Information Collection
Title of Information Collection: Public
Housing Agencies Service Areas
Solicitation of Comments.
OMB Approval Number: NEW—
Pending OMB Approval.
Type of Request: New Collection.
Form Number: Interactive Geospatial
tool currently under development and
will be available upon completion.
Description of the need for the
information and proposed use: HUD
proposes to use the following
information collection methodology to
gather Public Housing Agencies (PHAs)
service area boundaries. An interactive
geospatial tool will be provided by HUD
for PHAs to access online. Through this
Number of
respondents
online tool, HUD will present PHAs
with estimates of their service area
boundaries based on the locations of the
PHA’s public housing units and
Housing Choice Vouchers in relation to
Units of General Local Government.
PHAs will be provided an opportunity
to revise HUD’s initial estimates using
the online tool. The online, interactive
tool will provide PHAs with the ability
to designate boundaries that more
accurately reflect their actual service
areas under state and local law. PHAs
will be able to do so by identifying
Units of General Local Government
boundaries that more closely reflect
their actual service areas.
The United States Housing Act of
1937 (1937 Act) in Section 3(b)(6)
defines a Public Housing Agency, in
part, as: ‘‘Except as provided in
subparagraph (b), . . . any State,
county, municipality, or other
governmental entity or public body (or
agency or instrumentality thereof)
which is authorized to engage in or
assist in the development or operation
of public housing.’’ 42 U.S.C. 1437a.
The section includes additional
provisions related to PHAs operating
Section 8 Housing Choice Vouchers.
The 1937 Act therefore includes a
reference to applicable state and local
laws that PHAs operate pursuant to.
HUD’s regulations, at 24 CFR 982.4,
defines a PHA’s Jurisdiction as, ‘‘the
area in which the PHA has authority
under State and local law to administer
the program.’’
HUD is proposing an information
collection regarding PHAs’ applicable
jurisdictions, also known as service
areas, in which they are authorized to
operate under state and local law.
Through the online tool, HUD will
present PHAs with estimates of their
service area boundaries, based on the
locations of the PHA’s public housing
unit and Housing Choice Vouchers in
relation to Units of General Local
Government. HUD is aware that these
initial estimates may not reflect the
PHA’s defined service area in
accordance with State and local law,
therefore, PHAs will be provided an
opportunity to revise HUD’s initial
estimates using the online tool. When
Number of
responses
per
respondent
revising HUD’s estimates, PHAs will be
instructed to include in their revisions
the areas in which they are authorized
to operate under state and local law, not
only the areas in which they currently
operate. This means including areas that
the PHA may have no public housing
developments or HCVs, but where the
PHA could operate those programs. If
the PHA believes that HUD’s estimate of
its service area is accurate, the PHA will
be asked to validate or accept HUD’s
estimation within the online tool.
The information collection described
in this Notice will use an online
electronic methodology intended to
reduce administrative costs for PHAs
and the federal government. The
information obtained through this
information collection is intended to
assist in HUD program operations and
in providing data to HUD’s program
participants, stakeholders, and the.
Collecting PHA service area
boundaries in a simple electronic format
will aid in the provision of data that can
be used in conducting the statement of
housing needs assessments as required
by the PHA Annual Plan pursuant to 24
CFR 903.7. The information will be used
by HUD to provide data to PHAs for use
in completing Assessments of Fair
Housing. Such information is also
highly relevant for informing Housing
Choice Voucher policy decisions,
including those related to mobility and
portability. HUD itself will utilize the
information to inform operations of the
public housing, Housing Choice
Voucher and other programs, and for
estimating the impact of changes in Fair
Market Rents, including Small Area Fair
Market Rents. The information may also
be useful for the general public, for
instance, in locating local affordable
housing providers and increasing
awareness of local affordable housing
options.
The use of a geospatial data tool to
collect this information has the
advantage of simplifying and
minimizing the administrative costs as
well as directly linking the information
to existing data resources without the
need for additional cost to the federal
government.

Description of the need for the

(HUD) Office of Native American
Programs (ONAP) is developing a
system called the Loan Origination
System (ONAP–LOS) to support the
Section 184 Indian Home Loan
Guarantee Program. The ONAP–LOS
system will deliver automated processes
for case registration, reservation of
funds, issuance of loan guarantee
certificates, and lender registration and
re-certification. This system will capture
and maintain data across the following
major information categories: Lenders,
borrowers, properties, and loan. The
enhanced enterprise solution will
provide participating lender partners
with clarity and transparency around
the ONAP enforcement efforts and it
will expand access to credit for eligible
borrowers. The initial release of the
ONAP–LOS will deliver the following
high-level capabilities:
• Authentication of External Lenders
• Case Registration—Intake of Case
Registration Data & Case Number
Issuance
• Generation of Case Registration
Acknowledgement
ONAP designed the new system to
reduce the number of forms needed and
the time to prepare the forms while
ensuring the highest level of security
and privacy protections. ONAP–LOS is
available to all lenders with direct
guarantee approval, upon completion of
scheduled training.
ONAP operates the Section 184–A
program for eligible native Hawaiians.
The program is designed to offer home
ownership, property rehabilitation, and
new construction opportunities for
eligible native Hawaiian individuals
and families wanting to own a home on
Hawaiian home lands. The Hawaiian
Homelands Homeownership Act of 2000
added a new Section 184A to the
Housing and Community Development
Act of 1992 which authorized the Native
Hawaiian Housing Loan Guarantee
Program. The regulations for Section
184–A are found at 24 CFR part 1007.
This Paperwork Reduction Act package
includes all forms required for the
Section 184–A program.
