Department of Housing and Urban Development August 15, 2007 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

Project Design and Cost Standards for the Section 202 and Section 811 Programs
Document Number: E7-15962
Type: Proposed Rule
Date: 2007-08-15
Agency: Department of Housing and Urban Development
This proposed rule would revise HUD's regulations that govern the project design and cost standards for HUD's Section 202 Supportive Housing for the Elderly and Section 811 Persons with Disabilities programs. Under these programs, project sponsors are prohibited from using HUD funds for certain project amenities, including swimming pools, private balconies, dishwashers, and washers and dryers. This rule proposes to remove an item from the list of restricted amenities. Specifically, this rule would allow project sponsors to use HUD funds for dishwashers in individual supportive housing units for the elderly and independent living projects for persons with disabilities. In addition, the proposed rule would clarify the applicability of the project design and cost standards to Section 811 group homes.
Public Housing Operating Fund Program; Revised Transition Funding Schedule for Calendar Years 2007 Through 2012
Document Number: E7-15961
Type: Rule
Date: 2007-08-15
Agency: Department of Housing and Urban Development
This final rule modifies HUD's regulations for transition funding under the Operating Fund Program. The Operating Fund Program, as revised by a September 19, 2005, final rule, adopted a new formula for determining the payment of operating subsidy to public housing agencies (PHAs). Transition funding is based on the difference in subsidy levels between the new formula and the formula in effect prior to the implementation of the September 19, 2005, final rule. As a result of the new formula, PHAs may experience either an increase or decrease in the amount of funding that they receive. This final rule revises the schedule for those PHAs that will experience a decline in funding, by extending the transition phase-in period an additional year. This final rule follows publication of the two proposed rules published on November 24, 2006, and takes into consideration the public comments received on the proposed rules. With the exception of a technical change, this final rule adopts the proposed regulatory changes without change.
