could be reasonably expected to result
in meaningful actions to overcome the
effects of contributing factors and
related fair housing issues. Further,
program participants struggled to
develop metrics and milestones that
would measure their progress as they
affirmatively furthering fair housing.
HUD determined that program
participants’ frequent misunderstanding
of how to set clear goals, metrics, and
milestones that addressed their
identified contributing factors and
related fair housing issues often resulted
in non-accepted AFHs. HUD believes
that additional technical assistance may
result in program participants better
understanding their obligations under
the AFFH rule. HUD also believes that
by enhancing its technical assistance
that resources expended by program
participants will be reduced because
they are more likely to submit an initial
AFH that can be accepted by HUD.
Additionally, HUD determined that
significant staff resources are required
when deciding that an AFH will not be
accepted because it is inconsistent with
fair housing or civil rights requirements
or substantially incomplete, or both.
(See 24 CFR 5.162 (a)(2)(b).) HUD
believes that it can reduce the resources
expended by program participants by
examining and revising its technical
assistance content and methods of
delivery so that program participants’
AFHs are more likely to meet the
regulatory requirements on first
submission.
In order to reduce burden for program
participants in conducting AFHs that
meet the regulatory requirements, HUD,
in the AFFH rule, encourages program
participants to share resources and to
address fair housing issues from a
broader perspective by collaborating
and submitting a single AFH.
Nonetheless, HUD believes that some
joint and regional collaborations that
were non-accepted on their first
submission may have benefited from
technical assistance early in the process.
For example, the largest regional AFH
submitted to HUD consisted of 19
program participants. In its review of
the AFH, HUD determined that each of
the 19 program participants met the
regulatory standards for nonacceptance.
HUD believes that improving technical
assistance for collaborative AFHs will
enable collaborations to more efficiently
use their resources to address fair
housing issues that cross jurisdictional
boundaries.
Based on the initial AFH reviews,
HUD believes that local government
program participants need additional
time and technical assistance from HUD
to adjust to the new AFFH process and

complete acceptable AFH submissions.
HUD also believes it can use this time
to improve its Data and Mapping Tool
(AFFH–T) and the User Interface
(AFFH–UI). The extension period
allows HUD to further refine its
materials to provide additional guidance
to program participants. Finally, this
extension allows HUD staff to devote
additional time to providing program
participants, and program participants
in an AFH collaboration, with technical
assistance on the legal objective to
affirmatively further fair housing.
Consolidated plan program
participants must continue to comply
with existing, ongoing obligations to
affirmatively further fair housing. Until
a consolidated plan program participant
is required to submit an AFH, it will
continue to provide the AFFH
Consolidated plan certification in
accordance with the requirements that
existed prior to August 17, 2015. See 24
CFR 5.160(a)(3). The requirements
obligated a program participant to
certify that it will affirmatively further
fair housing, which means that it will
conduct an analysis of impediments (AI)
to fair housing choice within the
jurisdiction, take appropriate actions to
overcome the effects of any
impediments identified through that
analysis, and maintain records reflecting
the analysis and actions.
For Consolidated plan program
participants that are starting a new 3–5year Consolidated plan cycle that begins
before their due date for an AFH, the AI
should continue to be updated in
accordance with the HUD, Fair Housing
Planning Guide (1996), available at
https://www.hud.gov/sites/documents/
FHPG.PDF until those consolidated plan
program participants submit an AFH
after October 31, 2020. HUD encourages
consolidated plan program participants
to use the data and mapping tool and
the AFH Assessment Tool as resources
for program participants that are
updating their AIs. HUD encourages
program participants to collaborate to
develop a regional AI, as regional
collaborations provide an opportunity
for program participants to share
resources and address fair housing
issues that cross jurisdictional
boundaries.1
Program participants that have
already submitted an AFH which has

been accepted by HUD must continue to
execute the goals of that accepted AFH
and are not required to conduct a
separate AI. Program participants that
are covered by this notice and that may
have already begun work on an AFH
may continue to do so, as the AFFH rule
may provide program participants with
a useful framework for complying with
their AFFH obligation.
HUD will discontinue the review of
AFHs currently under review and will
not render an accept, deemed accepted,
or non-accept determination. Program
participants that received a non-accept
decision from HUD on their AFH
submission and are preparing to resubmit an AFH are also covered by this
notice and should not submit their
revised AFHs. HUD encourages these
program participants to use the
information contained in their draft
AFHs to conduct the required AI
analysis. Finally, program participants
prepared to submit their first AFH are
covered by this notice and should not
submit an AFH to HUD. Program
participants that have not received an
accept or non-accept determination
from HUD, or that have received a nonaccept but will no longer be required to
resubmit their AFH, are still required to
prepare an AI, as described above in this
notice.
HUD is issuing this notice for
applicability immediately upon
publication. Program participants must
continue to affirmatively further fair
housing as required by the Fair Housing
Act. 42 U.S.C. 3608.
Although HUD is issuing this notice
for applicability immediately upon
publication, it also invites public
comment for a period of 60-days on the
extension. HUD will consider all the
comments in its ongoing process of
reviewing the Assessment of Fair
Housing Tool for Local Governments.
