SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This
notice informs the public that HUD is
seeking approval from OMB for the
information collection described in
Section A. The Federal Register notice
that solicited public comment on the
information collection for a period of 60
days was published on September 11,
2018 at 83 FR 45954.
A. Overview of Information Collection
Title of Information Collection: Public
Housing Reform Act: Changes to
Admission and Occupancy
Requirements.
OMB Approved Number: 2577–0230.
Type of Request: Revision of a
currently approved collection.
Form Number: None.
Description of the need for the
information and proposed use: This
collection of information implements
changes to the admission and
occupancy requirements for the Public
Housing program made by the Quality
Housing and Work Responsibility
(QHWRA) Act of 1998 (Title V of the FY
1999 HUD appropriations Act, Public
Law 105–276, 112 Stat. 2518, approved
October 21, 1998), and the Housing
Opportunity Through Modernization
Act of 2016 (HOTMA), section 103,
which amends the United States
Housing Act of 1937. Both QHWRA and
HOTMA made comprehensive changes
to HUD’s Public Housing program.
These changes include defining an
‘over-income family’ as one having an
annual income 120 percent above the
median income for the area for two
consecutive years and includes new
mandatory annual reporting
requirements on the number of overincome families residing in Public
Housing and the total number of
families on the Public Housing waiting
lists at the end of each reporting year.
The purpose of the admission and
occupancy policy requirement is to
ensure that Public Housing Agencies
(PHA) have written documentation of
their respective admission and
occupancy policies for both the public
and the Department of Housing and
Urban Development (HUD). Public
Housing Authorities must have on hand
and available for inspection, policies
related to admission and occupancy, to
respond to inquiries from tenants, legalaid services, HUD, and other interested
parties informally or through the
Freedom of Information Act of policies

Jkt 247001
relating to eligibility for admission and
continued occupancy, local preferences,
income limitations, and rent
determination. HOTMA now requires
PHAs to make a one-time update to their
admission and occupancy policy to
apply local over-income limits, and
annually report on the number of overincomes families living in their Public
Housing units as well as the number of
families on the Public Housing’s waiting
list. Revisions are made to this
collection to reflect adjustments in
calculations based on the total number
of current, active Public Housing
agencies (PHAs) to date. The number of
active Public Housing agencies has
changed from 3,946 to 2,897 since the
last approved information collection
which inadvertently also included
voucher only PHAs. In general, the
number of PHAs can fluctuate due to
many factors, including but not limited
to the merging of two or more PHAs or
the termination of the Public Housing
programs due to the Rental Assistance
Demonstration.
Respondents (i.e. affected public):
State, Local or Tribal Government.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
2,897.
Estimated Number of Responses:
2,897.
Frequency of Response: 1.
Average Hours per Response: 24.
Total Estimated Burdens: 69,528.
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 Section A 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; and
(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.
HUD encourages interested parties to
submit comment in response to these
questions.
