Housing Opportunity Through Modernization Act: Implementation of Sections 102, 103, and 104; Extension of Compliance Date
This notice extends the compliance date for HUD's final rule entitled ``Housing Opportunity Through Modernization Act of 2016: Implementation of Section 102, 103, and 104'' (``HOTMA final rule'') for Community Planning and Development (``CPD'') programs. Specifically, HUD is extending the compliance date for the HOME Investment Partnerships Program (``HOME''), HOME-American Rescue Plan program, Housing Trust Fund (``HTF''), Housing Opportunities for Persons With AIDS (``HOPWA''), Community Development Block Grant Program (``CDBG''), Emergency Solution Grants (ESG), Continuum of Care (CoC) programs, and CPD programs funded through competitive process (``CPD programs'') until January 1, 2025. HUD is taking this action to allow jurisdictions, participants, and grantees additional time to incorporate HUD's income and asset requirements into their own programs and the flexibility to transition implementing HOTMA requirements under their own timelines.
Removing Criminal Conviction Restrictions for Testers in FHIP- and FHAP-Funded Testing Programs; Extension of Comment Period
On October 31, 2023, HUD published in the Federal Register a notice of proposed rulemaking entitled ``Removing Criminal Conviction Restrictions for Testers in FHIP- and FHAP-Funded Testing Programs,'' proposing to eliminate the tester restrictions for Fair Housing Initiatives Program (FHIP) grantees and for Fair Housing Assistance Program (FHAP) agencies that forbid FHIP and FHAP recipients from using fair housing testers with prior felony convictions or convictions of crimes involving fraud or perjury. The proposed rule provided for a 60- day comment period, which would have ended January 2, 2024. HUD has determined that a 9-day extension of the comment period, until January 11, 2024, is appropriate. This extension will allow interested persons additional time to analyze the proposal and prepare their comments.
