Rental Assistance Demonstration: Processing of Conversion Requests Submitted Under the Partial Rental Assistance Demonstration Notice
Document Number: 2012-23910
Type: Notice
Date: 2012-09-28
Agency: Department of Housing and Urban Development
On March 8, 2012, at 77 FR 14029, HUD published in the Federal Register a notice announcing HUD's Rental Assistance Demonstration (RAD) program and the publication of PIH Notice 2012-18 on the RAD Web site, www.hud.gov/rad. RAD provides the opportunity to test the conversion of public housing and other HUD-assisted properties to long- term, project-based Section 8 rental assistance to achieve certain goals, including the preservation and improvement of these properties through access by public housing agencies (PHAs) and owners to private debt and equity to address immediate and long-term capital needs; the extent to which residents have increased housing choices after the conversion; and the overall impact of conversion on the subject properties. The March 8, 2012 PIH Notice 2012-18 announced partial implementation of the demonstration under the second component of RAD for properties assisted through the Rent Supplement (Rent Supp) and Rental Assistance Payment (RAP) Programs. This Federal Register notice published today provides additional instruction for RAD program participants that submitted conversion requests under the Partial Implementation Notice (PIH Notice 2012-18).
Statutorily Mandated Designation of Difficult Development Areas for 2013
Document Number: 2012-23900
Type: Notice
Date: 2012-09-28
Agency: Department of Housing and Urban Development
This notice designates ``Difficult Development Areas'' (DDAs) for purposes of the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) under Section 42 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (IRC). The United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) makes DDA designations annually. In addition to announcing the 2013 DDA designations, this notice responds to public comment received in response to the proposed use of Small Area Fair Market Rents (FMRs) for designating DDAs as published in the notice ``Statutorily Mandated Designation of Difficult Development Areas and Qualified Census Tracts for 2012'', published in the Federal Register on October 27, 2011. After considering the public comments, HUD has decided to delay by one year the adoption of small area DDAs. The 2014 DDAs will be published in a separate notice at a later date after further consideration of the Small DDA concept. Qualified Census Tracts (QCTs) for 2013 were previously designated in a notice published in the Federal Register on April 20, 2012.
