The Rental Assistance Demonstration
allows public Housing and Moderate Rehabilitation (Mod Rehab)
properties to convert to long-term Section 8 rental assistance
contracts; and Rent Supplement, Rental Assistance Payment and Mod
Rehab properties upon contract expiration or termination, to
convert Tenant Protection Vouchers (TPVs) to Project Based Vouchers
(PBVs). Participation in the initiative will be voluntary; the
attached applications will be used to determine
eligibility.
The use of normal
clearance procedures is reasonably likely to prevent the collection
of information (i.e. contract execution), which would cause a gap
in the rental assistance to the project, potentially result in the
displacement of families, and disrupt financing. Moreover, the
inability to provide a fully-approved replacement contract under
PIH Notice 2012-32 in a timely fashion would significantly disrupt
the abilities of all affected parties including the property
owner/manager, residents, lenders, and the administering Public
Housing Agency to understand and execute their rights,
responsibilities, and benefits under the contract and, more
critically, those new provisions afforded under PIH Notice 2012-32.
Accordingly, HUD cannot reasonably comply with the normal clearance
procedures as the duration of such procedures would likely result
in the disruption of the collection and dissemination of critical
information involved in offering continuous subsidy assistance
afforded by such contracts.
This is a New Collection. There
are not changes in the burden estimate.
