Department of Housing and Urban Development July 24, 2014 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

On July 2, 2014, HUD published a notice that made final an earlier notice published on December 16, 2013, for public comment. The December 16, 2013, notice was entitled ``Public Housing Assessment System (PHAS) Capital Fund Interim Scoring Notice: Reinstitution of Five Points for Occupancy Sub-Indicator and Request for Comment.'' These notices pertain to the scoring of PHAs by HUD and have the effect of reinstating, temporarily, the automatic award of 5 points for the occupancy sub-indicator of the Capital Fund Program Indicator to all PHAs that passed a basic threshold scoring level for the Public Housing Assessment System (PHAS) Capital Fund Program Indicator. However, in the July 2, 2014, notice HUD inadvertently failed to revise the title of the notice by replacing ``interim'' with ``final'' and by removing the phrase ``and Request for Comment.'' Since the July 2, 2014, notice is final and does not request public comments, the title may be misleading to the public. HUD, therefore, is publishing today's notice to correct its July 2, 2014, notice.
