24 C.F.R. Subpart C—Comprehensive Grant Program (for PHAs That Own or Operate 250 or More Public Housing Units)
Title 24 - Housing and Urban Development
Source: 57 FR 5575, Feb. 14, 1992, unless otherwise noted.
In addition to the definitions in §968.105, the following definitions apply to this subpart: Action plan. A plan of the actions to be funded by a PHA over a period of five years (including a PHA's proposed allocation of its modernization funds to a reserve established under §968.112(f)) to make the necessary physical and management improvements identified in the PHA's comprehensive plan. The plan shall be based upon HUD's and the PHA's best estimates of the funding reasonably expected to become available under the next five-year period. The action plan is updated annually to reflect a rolling five-year base. (See §968.315(e)(5).) Annual Statement. A work statement covering the first year of the Five-Year Action Plan and setting forth the major work categories and costs by development or PHA-wide for the current FFY grant, as well as a summary of costs by development account and implementation schedules for obligation and expenditure of the funds. Annual Submission. A collective term for all documents which the PHA must submit to HUD for review and approval before accessing the current FFY grant funds. Such documents include the Annual Statement, Work Statements for years two through five of the Five-Year Action Plan, local government statement, PHA Board Resolution, materials demonstrating the partnership process and any other documents as prescribed by HUD. Chief executive officer (CEO). The CEO of a unit of general local government means the elected official or the legally designated official, who has the primary responsibility for the conduct of that entity's governmental affairs. Examples of the CEO of a unit of general local government are: the elected mayor of a municipality; the elected county executive of a county; the chairperson of a county commission or board in a county that has no elected county executive; or the official designated pursuant to law by the governing body of a unit of general local government (e.g., city manager). Comprehensive plan. A plan prepared by a PHA and approved by HUD setting forth all of the physical and management improvement needs of the PHA and its public housing developments, indicating the relative urgency of needs and which includes the PHA's action plan, cost estimates, and required local government and PHA certifications. The comprehensive plan may be revised, as necessary, but must be revised at least every sixth year. (See §968.315(e).) Emergency work. Physical work items of an emergency nature, posing an immediate threat to the health or safety of residents, which must be completed within one year of CGP funding. Management improvements are not eligible as emergency work and, therefore, must be covered by the comprehensive plan (including the action plan) before the PHA may carry them out. Fungibility. Fungibility is a concept which permits a PHA to substitute any work item from the latest approved Five-Year Action Plan to any previously approved CIAP budget or CGP Annual Statement and to move work items among approved budgets without prior HUD approval. Improvement plan. A document developed by the PHA and approved by HUD specifying the actions to be taken, including timetables, to correct deficiencies identified as a result of an assessment, either under PHMAP or pursuant to HUD monitoring or audit findings. Memorandum of Agreement (MOA). A binding contractual agreement between HUD and a troubled PHA, or a mod troubled PHA, which is designed to bring about significant, expeditious and long-lasting improvements in the PHA's management of its PHA-owned units. A MOA is required for each PHA designated as troubled or mod troubled. Resident groups. Democratically elected resident groups such as PHA-wide resident groups, area-wide resident groups, single development resident groups, or RMCs. Substantial rehabilitation. A modernization program for a development which provides for all physical and management improvements needed to meet the modernization and energy conservation standards and to ensure its long-term physical and social viability. Work Statements. Work Statements cover the second through the fifth years of the Five-Year Action Plan and set forth the major work categories and costs by development or PHA-wide which the PHA intends to undertake in each year of years two through five. In preparing these Work Statements, the PHA shall assume that the current FFY formula amount will be available in each year of years two through five. [57 FR 5575, Feb. 14, 1992, as amended at 58 FR 13931, Mar. 15, 1993; 59 FR 44837, Aug. 30, 1994; 61 FR 8744, Mar. 5, 1996] (a) Submission of formula characteristics report—(1) Formula characteristics report. In its first year of participation in the CGP, each PHA shall verify and provide data to HUD, in a form and at a time to be prescribed by HUD, concerning PHA and development characteristics so that HUD can develop the PHA's annual funding allocation in accordance with §968.103 (e) and (f). If a PHA fails to submit to HUD the formula characteristics report by the prescribed deadline, HUD will use the data which it has available concerning PHA and development characteristics for purposes of calculating the PHA's formula share. After its first year of participation in the CGP, a PHA is not required to submit formula characteristics data to HUD, but is required to respond to data transmitted by HUD if there have been changes to its inventory from that previously reported, or where requested by HUD. On an annual basis, HUD will transmit to the PHA, the formula characteristics report which reflects the data that will be used to determine the PHA's formula share. The PHA will have at least 30 calendar days to review and advise HUD of errors in this HUD report. Necessary adjustments will be made to the PHA's data before the formula is run for the current FFY. (2) PHA Board Resolution. The PHA must include with its formula characteristics report under paragraph (a)(1) of this section, a resolution adopted by the PHA Board of Commissioners approving the report, and certifying that the data contained in the formula characteristics report are accurate. (b) HUD notification of formula amount; appeal rights—(1) Formula amounts notification. After HUD determines a PHA's formula allocation under §968.103 (e) and (f) based upon the PHA, development, and community characteristics, it shall notify the PHA of its formula amount and provide instructions on the Annual Submission in accordance with §§968.315 and 968.325; (2) Appeal based upon unique circumstances. A PHA may appeal in writing HUD's determination of its formula amount within 60 calendar days of the date of HUD's determination on the basis of “unique circumstances.” The PHA must indicate what is unique, and specify the manner in which it is different from all other PHAs participating in the CGP, and provide any necessary supporting documentation. HUD shall render a written decision on an PHA's appeal under this paragraph within 60 calendar days of the date of its receipt of the PHA's request for an appeal. HUD shall publish in the (3) Appeal based upon error. A PHA may appeal in writing HUD's determination of its formula amount within 60 calendar days of the date of HUD's determination on the basis of an error. The PHA may appeal on the basis of error the correctness of data in the formula characteristics report. The PHA must describe the nature of the error, and provide any necessary supporting documentation. HUD shall respond to the PHA's request within 60 calendar days of the date of its receipt of the PHA's request for an appeal. Any adjustment resulting from successful appeals in a particular FFY under this paragraph shall be made from subsequent years' allocation of funds under this part; (c) Reduced formula allocation for PHAs designated as mod troubled under PHMAP—(1) Notification. After a PHA is designated as a mod troubled agency under PHMAP (24 CFR part 901), HUD shall inform the PHA that its funding may be limited under this subpart because of its designation as a mod troubled PHA. HUD shall also provide the PHA with information concerning the PHA's funding levels for CGP, CIAP and MROP for each of the preceding three FFYs for purposes of determining the PHA's reduced formula allocation, in accordance with paragraph (c)(2)(ii) of this section. In addition, HUD will provide the PHA with information on its full formula allocation under §968.103 (e) and (f), and the amount which represents 25 percent of the difference between the average amounts provided to the PHA in each of the preceding three FFYs and its full formula allocation. (2) Calculation of funding for mod troubled PHAs. HUD shall calculate the funding level for mod troubled PHAs in accordance with paragraph (c)(1) of this section in the following manner: (i) The average of the amount that the mod troubled PHA received for modernization activities under this part, and for Major Reconstruction of Obsolete Projects (MROP), for each of the preceding three FFYs, which average shall be adjusted to take into account changes in the cost of rehabilitating property based upon the Means Construction Cost Index; plus (ii) Twenty five percent of the difference between the amount determined under paragraph (c)(1)(i) of this section, and the amount that would have been allocated to the PHA for the FFY if it were not designated as a mod troubled PHA. (3) Right of appeal. The notice under paragraph (c)(1) of this section shall also specify that a PHA may petition HUD within 30 calendar days of its receipt of HUD's notice to increase the amount of its fund allocation. HUD shall determine whether to increase the amount of assistance to be provided a PHA under this paragraph based upon the PHA's demonstrated progress in meeting goals and targets set forth in the PHA's Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) under PHMAP, and toward achieving satisfactory performance under the mod troubled indicator/standard under PHMAP. In its appeal request, a PHA must specify how it is achieving or making progress toward achieving the goals and objectives set forth in the MOA. The request must be submitted to HUD within 30 calendar days of the date of HUD's notice under this paragraph. HUD shall render a decision in writing on the PHA's request within 60 calendar days of the date of its receipt of the PHA's appeal and any supporting documentation. (4) Maximum allowable allocation to mod troubled PHAs. The maximum amount that HUD may provide to a PHA under this paragraph is the amount that would have been allocated to the PHA for the FFY if it had not been designated as a mod troubled PHA under PHMAP. Where the full formula allocation is less than the average of funding received by the PHA for modernization and MROP for each of the preceding three FFYs, the PHA will receive its full formula amount, and not its average funding level for the preceding three FFYs, plus 25 percent of the difference between that figure and its full formula amount. (5) Reallocation of funds withheld from mod troubled PHAs. Any amounts which are not provided to a PHA under paragraph (c)(1) of this section because the PHA is designated as a mod troubled agency under PHMAP, shall be reallocated by HUD to other PHAs under this subpart which are not designated as either troubled or mod troubled agencies under PHMAP, and to IHAs under 24 CFR part 950 (subpart I) which are not determined to be high risk under §950.135 of this chapter, the ACA, and the Field Office Monitoring of IHAs Handbook. Such funds shall be reallocated in the next FFY based upon the relative needs of these PHAs and IHAs, as determined under the formula. (6) Credits for PHAs designated as mod troubled—(i) Accrual of credits. A PHA that has received a reduced formula allocation under paragraph (c)(1) of this section because it was designated as a mod troubled agency under PHMAP may accrue credits under this paragraph, for up to three consecutive FFYs, representing the difference between: (A) The amount the PHA would have been allocated for the FFY under §968.103(e) and (f) if it were not designated as a mod troubled PHA under PHMAP; and (B) The reduced funding amount actually provided to the PHA under paragraph (c)(2) of this section because it was designated as a mod troubled PHA under PHMAP. (ii) Failure to remove mod troubled designation. After a three-year period during which the mod troubled PHA has accrued credits under paragraph (c)(6)(i) of this section, the credits accrued by the PHA shall be: (A) Decreased by 10 percent of the total accumulated credits if the PHA's designation as a mod troubled agency under PHMAP is not removed before the end of the first FFY following the three-year accrual period; (B) Decreased by an additional 20 percent of the original total accumulated credits if the PHA's designation as a mod troubled agency under PHMAP is not removed before the end of the second FFY following the three-year accrual period; (C) Decreased by an additional 30 percent of the original total accumulated credits if the PHA's designation as a mod troubled agency under PHMAP is not removed before the end of the third FFY following the three-year accrual period; and (D) Eliminated if the PHA's designation as a mod troubled agency under PHMAP is not removed before the end of the fourth FFY following the three-year accrual period. (iii) Obtaining credits. HUD shall reserve under §968.103(c) up to five percent of the total formula funds available for allocation in any FFY for the purpose of providing PHAs that were formerly designated as mod troubled PHAs under PHMAP with additional assistance after HUD determines that a PHA is no longer a mod troubled agency. HUD shall make the determination that a PHA is no longer a mod troubled agency based upon its achieving satisfactory performance under the mod indicator/standard that was initially used to designate the agency as mod troubled under PHMAP. The additional assistance shall be provided to the formerly mod troubled PHA in the FFY following the year in which the PHA is removed from the mod troubled list. Such assistance shall be provided to the PHA in addition to a PHA's regular formula allocation under §968.103(e) and (f), and shall consist of: (A) The total amount of credits accumulated by the PHA under paragraph (c)(6)(i) of this section; minus (B) Any reductions under paragraph (c)(6)(ii) of this section to the total accumulated credits, based upon the length of time that the PHA has taken to remove its mod troubled designation; and (C)(1) Adjusted by HUD to take into account the PHA's ability to expeditiously expend the accrued credit amounts. HUD shall consult with the PHA to determine the rate at which the PHA shall be provided access to its credits under this section. As a general guideline, HUD intends to provide a PHA with 10% of its accrued credits in the first year; an additional 20% of its accrued credits in the second year; an additional 30% of its accrued credits in the third year; and the remaining 40% of its accrued credits in the fourth year; (2) In any FFY where formerly mod troubled PHAs are entitled to credits exceeding the five percent reserve, HUD shall apply a pro rata reduction for each formerly mod troubled PHA for such FFY. A PHA shall remain entitled to receive its outstanding balance of credits, including any credits not actually received because of such pro rata reduction, in future FFYs, depending upon the availability of funds in the set-aside under §968.103(c). [57 FR 5575, Feb. 14, 1992, as amended at 59 FR 44839, Aug. 30, 1994. Redesignated and amended at 61 FR 8744, Mar. 5, 1996] (a) Submission. As soon as possible after modernization funds first become available for allocation under this subpart, HUD shall notify PHAs in writing of their formula amount. For planning purposes, PHAs may use the amount they received under CGP in the prior year in developing their comprehensive plan, or they may wait for the annual HUD notification of formula amount under §968.310(b)(1). (b)(1) Resident participation. A PHA is required to develop, implement, monitor and annually amend portions of its comprehensive plan in consultation with residents of the developments covered by the comprehensive plan. In addition, the PHA shall consult with resident management corporations (RMCs) to the extent that an RMC manages a development covered by the comprehensive plan. The PHA, in partnership with the residents, must develop and implement a process for resident participation that ensures that residents are involved in a meaningful way in all phases of the CGP. Such involvement shall involve implementing the Partnership Process as a critical element of the CGP. (2) Establishment of Partnership Process. The PHA, in partnership with the residents of the developments covered by the plan (and which may include resident leaders, resident councils, resident advisory councils/boards, and RMCs) must establish a Partnership Process to develop and implement the goals, needs, strategies and priorities identified in the comprehensive plan. After residents have organized to participate in the CGP, they may decide to establish a volunteer advisory group of experts in various professions to assist them in the CGP Partnership Process. The Partnership Process shall be designed to achieve the following: (i) To ensure that residents are fully briefed and involved in developing the content of, and monitoring the implementation of, the comprehensive plan including, but not limited to, the physical and management needs assessments, viability analysis, Five-Year Action Plan, and Annual Statement. If necessary, the PHA shall develop and implement capacity building strategies to ensure meaningful resident participation in CGP. Such technical assistance efforts for residents are eligible management improvement costs under CGP; (ii) To enable residents to participate, on a PHA-wide or area-wide basis, in ongoing discussions of the comprehensive plan and strategies for its implementation, and in all meetings necessary to ensure meaningful participation. (3) Public notice. Within a reasonable amount of time before the advance meeting for residents under paragraph (b)(4) of this section and the public hearing under paragraph (b)(5) of this section, the PHA shall provide public notice of the advance meeting and the public hearing in a manner determined by the PHA that ensures notice to all duly elected resident councils. (4) Advance meeting for residents. The PHA shall hold, within a reasonable amount of time before the public hearing under paragraph (b)(5) of this section, a meeting for residents and duly elected resident councils at which the PHA shall explain the components of the comprehensive plan. The meeting shall be open to all residents and duly elected resident councils. (5) Public hearing. The PHA shall hold at least one public hearing, and any appropriate number of additional hearings, to present information on the comprehensive plan/annual submission and the status of prior approval programs. The public hearing shall provide ample opportunity for residents, local government officials, and other interested parties to express their priorities and concerns. The PHA shall give full consideration to the comments and concerns of residents, local government officials, and other interested parties. (c) Local government participation. A PHA shall consult with and provide information to appropriate local government officials with respect to the development of the comprehensive plan to ensure that there is coordination between the actions taken under the consolidated plan (see 24 CFR part 91) for project and neighborhood improvements where public housing units are located or proposed for construction and/or modernization and improvement and to coordinate meeting public and human service needs of the public and assisted housing projects and their residents. In the case of a PHA with developments in multiple jurisdictions, the PHA may meet this requirement by consulting with an advisory group representative of all the jurisdictions. At a minimum, such consultation must include providing such officials with: (1) Advance written notice of the public hearing required under paragraph (b)(5) of this section; (2) A copy of the summary of total preliminary estimated costs to address physical needs by each development and management/operations needs PHA-wide and a specific description of the PHA's process for maximizing the level of participation by residents and a summary of the general issues raised on the plan by residents and others during the public comment process and the PHA's response to the general issues. PHA records, such as minutes of planning meetings or resident surveys, shall be maintained in the PHA's files and made available to residents, resident organizations, and other interested parties upon request; and (3) An opportunity to express their priorities and concerns to ensure due consideration in the PHA's planning process; (d) Participation in coordinating entities. To the extent that coordinating entities are set up to plan and implement the consolidated plans (under 24 CFR part 91), the PHA shall participate in these entities to ensure coordination with broader community development strategies. (e) Contents of comprehensive plan. The comprehensive plan shall identify all of the physical and management improvements needed for a PHA and all of its developments, and that represent needs eligible for funding under §968.112. The plan also shall include preliminary estimates of the total cost of these improvements. The plan shall set forth general strategies for addressing the identified needs, and highlight any special strategies, such as major redesign or partial demolition of a development, that are necessary to ensure the long-term physical and social viability of the development. Where long-term physical and social viability of the development is dependent upon revitalization of the surrounding neighborhood in the provision of or coordination of public services, or the consolidation or coordination of drug prevention and other human service initiatives, the PHA shall identify these needs and strategies. In addition, the PHA shall identify the funds or other resources in the consolidated plan that are to be used to help address these needs and strategies and the activities in the comprehensive plan that strengthen the consolidated plan. Each comprehensive plan shall contain the following elements: (1) Executive summary. A PHA shall include as part of its comprehensive plan an executive summary to facilitate review and comprehension by development residents and by the public. The executive summary shall include the following: (i) A summary of total preliminary estimated costs to address physical needs by each development and PHA-wide physical and management needs; and (ii) A specific description of the PHA's process for maximizing the level of participation by residents during the development, implementation and monitoring of the Comprehensive Plan, a summary of the general issues raised on the plan by residents and others during the public comment process and the PHA's response to the general issues. PHA records, such as minutes of planning meetings or resident surveys, shall be maintained in the PHA's files and made available to residents, duly elected resident councils, and other interested parties, upon request; (2) Physical needs assessment—(i) Requirements. The physical needs assessment identifies all of the work that a PHA would need to undertake to bring each of its developments up to the modernization and energy conservation standards, as required by the Act, to comply with the lead-based paint requirements in part 35, subparts A, B, L, and R of this title, and to comply with other program requirements under §968.110. The physical needs assessment is completed without regard to the availability of funds, and shall include the following: (A) A brief summary of the physical improvements necessary to bring each such development to a level at least equal to applicable HUD standards with respect to modernization standards, energy conservation and life-cycle cost effective performance standards, lead-based paint testing and abatement standards. This summary must indicate the relative urgency of need. If the PHA has no physical improvement needs at a particular development at the time it completes its comprehensive plan, it must so indicate. Similarly, if the PHA intends to demolish, partially demolish, convert, or dispose of a development (or units within a development) it must so indicate in the summary of physical improvements; (B) The replacement needs of equipment systems and structural elements that will be required to be met (assuming routine and timely maintenance is performed) during the period covered by the action plan; (C) A preliminary estimate of the cost to complete the physical work; (D) Any physical disparities between buildings occupied predominantly by one racial or ethnic group and, in such cases, the physical improvements required to correct the conditions; and (E) In addition, with respect to vacant or non-homebuyer occupied Turnkey III units, the estimated number of units that the PHA is proposing for substantial rehabilitation and subsequent sale, in accordance with §968.112(d)(3). (ii) Source of data. The PHA shall identify in its needs assessment the sources from which it derived data to develop the physical needs assessment under this paragraph (e)(2) and shall retain such source documents in its files; (3) Management needs assessment—(i) Requirements. The plan shall include a comprehensive assessment of the improvements needed to upgrade the management and operation of the PHA and of each viable development so decent, safe, and sanitary living conditions will be provided. The management needs assessment shall include the following, with the relative urgency of need indicated: (A) An identification of the most current needs related to the following areas (to the extent that any of these needs is addressed in a HUD-approved memorandum of agreement or improvement plan, the PHA may simply include a cross-reference to these documents): (1) The management, financial, and accounting control systems of the PHA; (2) The adequacy and qualifications of personnel employed by the PHA in its management and operation, for each significant category of employment; (3) The adequacy and efficacy of: (i) Resident programs and services; (ii) Resident and development security; (iii) Resident selection and eviction; (iv) Occupancy; (v) Maintenance; (vi) Resident management and resident capacity building programs; (vii) Resident opportunities for employment and business development and other self-sufficiency opportunities for residents; and (viii) Homeownership opportunities for residents; (B) Any additional deficiencies identified through PHMAP, audits and HUD monitoring reviews that are not addressed under paragraph (e)(3)(i)(A) of this section. To the extent that any of these is addressed in a HUD-approved memorandum of agreement or improvement plan, the PHA may include a cross-reference to these documents; (C) Any other management and operations needs that the PHA wants to address at the PHA-wide or development level; and (D) A PHA-wide preliminary cost estimate for addressing all the needs identified in the management needs assessment, without regard to the availability of funds; (ii) Sources of funds. The PHA shall identify in its needs assessment the sources from which it derived data to develop the management needs assessment under this paragraph (e)(3) and shall retain such source documents in its files; (4) Demonstration of long-term physical and social viability. (i) General. The plan shall include, on a development-by-development basis, an analysis of whether completion of the improvements and replacements identified under paragraphs (e)(2) and (e)(3) of this section will reasonably ensure the long-term physical and social viability, including achieving structural/system soundness and full occupancy, of the development at a reasonable cost. For cost reasonableness, the PHA shall determine whether the unfunded hard costs satisfy the definition of “reasonable cost.” Where the PHA wishes to fund a development, for other than emergencies, where hard costs exceed that reasonable cost, the PHA shall submit written justification to the Field Office. If the Field Office agrees with the PHA's request, the Field Office shall forward its recommendation to Headquarters for final decision. Where the estimated per unit unfunded hard cost is equal to or less than the per unit TDC for the smallest bedroom size at the development, no further computation of the TDC limit is required. The PHA shall keep documentation in its files to support all cost determinations. The Field Office will review cost reasonableness as part of its review of the annual submission and the performance and evaluation report. As necessary, HUD will review the PHA's documentation in support of its cost reasonableness, taking into account broader efforts to revitalize the neighborhoods in which the development is located; (ii) Determination of non-viability. Where a PHA's analysis of a development under paragraph (e) of this section establishes that completion of the identified improvements and replacements will not result in the long-term physical and social viability of the development at a reasonable cost, the PHA shall not expend CGP funds for the development, except for emergencies and essential non-routine maintenance necessary to maintain habitability until residents can be relocated. The PHA shall specify in its comprehensive plan the actions it proposes to take with respect to the non-viable development (e.g., demolition or disposition under 24 CFR part 970); (5) Five-year action plan. (i) General. The comprehensive plan shall include a rolling five-year action plan to carry out the improvements and replacements (or a portion thereof) identified under paragraphs (e)(2) and (e)(3) of this section. In developing its five-year action plan, the PHA shall assume that the current year funding or formula amount will be available for each year of its five-year action plan, whichever the PHA is using for planning purposes, plus the PHA's estimate of the funds that will be available from other sources, such as state and local governments. All activities specified in a PHA's five-year action plan are contingent upon the availability of funds; (ii) Requirements. Under the action plan, a PHA must indicate how it intends to use the funds available to it under the CGP to address, over a five-year period, the deficiencies (or a portion of the deficiencies) identified in its physical and management needs assessments, as follows: (A) Physical condition. With respect to the physical condition of a PHA's developments, a PHA must indicate in its action plan how it intends to address, over a five-year period, the deficiencies (or a portion of the deficiencies) identified in its physical needs assessment so as to bring each of its developments up to a level at least equal to the modernization and energy conservation standards. This includes specifying the work to be undertaken by the PHA in major work categories (e.g., kitchens, electrical systems, etc.); establishing priorities among the major work categories by development and year, based upon the relative urgency of need; and estimating the cost of each of the identified major work categories. In developing its action plan, a PHA shall give priority to the following: (1) Activities required to correct emergency conditions; (2) Activities required to meet statutory or other legally mandated requirements (e.g., compliance with a court-ordered desegregation plan or voluntary compliance agreement); (3) Activities required to meet the needs identified in the Section 504 needs assessment within the regulatory timeframe; and (4) Activities required to complete lead-based paint testing and abatement requirements; (B) Management and operations. A PHA must address in its action plan the management and operations deficiencies (or a portion of the deficiencies) identified in its management needs assessment, as follows: (1) With respect to the management and operations needs of the PHA, the PHA must identify how it intends to address with CGP funds, if necessary, the deficiencies (or a portion thereof) identified in its management needs assessment, including work identified through PHMAP, audits, HUD monitoring reviews, and self-assessments. The action plan must indicate the relative urgency of need; (2) A preliminary PHA-wide cost estimate, by major work category. (iii) Procedure for maintaining current five-year action plan. The PHA shall maintain a current five-year action plan by annually amending its five-year action plan, in conjunction with the annual submission; (6) Local government statement. The comprehensive plan shall include a statement signed by the chief executive officer of the unit of general local government (or, in the case of a PHA with developments in multiple jurisdictions, from the CEO of each such jurisdiction) certifying to the following: (i) The PHA developed the comprehensive plan/five-year action plan or amendments thereto in consultation with officials of the appropriate governing body and with development residents covered by the comprehensive plan/five-year action plan, in accordance with the requirements of paragraphs (b) and (c) of this section; (ii) The comprehensive plan/five-year action plan or amendments thereto are consistent with the appropriate governing body's assessment of its low income housing needs (as evidenced by its consolidated plan under 24 CFR part 91, if applicable), and that the appropriate governing body will cooperate in providing resident programs and services; and (iii) The PHA's proposed drug elimination activities are coordinated with, and supportive of, local drug elimination strategies and neighborhood improvement programs, if applicable; and (7) PHA resolution. The plan shall include a resolution, in a form prescribed by HUD, adopted by the PHA Board of Commissioners, and signed by the Board Chairman of the PHA, approving the comprehensive plan or any amendments. (f) Amendments to the comprehensive plan—(1) Extension of time for performance. A PHA shall have the right to amend its comprehensive plan (including the action plan) to extend the time for performance whenever HUD has not provided the amount of assistance set forth in the comprehensive plan or has not provided the assistance in a timely manner; (2) Amendments to needs assessments. The PHA shall amend its plan by revising its needs assessments whenever it proposes to carry out activities in its five-year action plan or annual statement that are not reflected in its current needs assessments (except in the case of emergencies). The PHA may propose an amendment to its needs assessments, in connection with the submission of its annual submission (see §968.325) or at any other time. These amendments shall be reviewed by HUD in accordance with §968.320. (3) Six-year revision of comprehensive plan. Every sixth year following the initial year of participation, the PHA shall submit to HUD, with its annual submission, a complete update of its comprehensive plan. A PHA may elect to revise some or all parts of the comprehensive plan more frequently. (4) Annual revision of five-year action plan. Annually, the PHA shall submit to HUD, with its annual submission, an update of its five-year action plan, eliminating the previous year and adding an additional year. The PHA shall identify changes in work categories (other than those included in the new fifth year) from the previous year five-year action plan when making this annual submission. (5) Required submissions. Any amendments to the comprehensive plan under this section must be submitted with the PHA resolution under §968.315(e)(7). (g) Prerequisite for receiving assistance—(1) Prohibition of assistance. No financial assistance, except for emergency work to be funded under §§968.103(b) and 968.112(a)(1)(ii), and for modernization needs resulting from disasters under §968.103(b), may be made available under this subpart unless HUD has approved a comprehensive plan submitted by the PHA that meets the requirements of this section. A PHA that has failed to obtain approval of its comprehensive plan by the end of the FFY shall have its formula allocation for that year (less any formula amounts provided to the PHA for emergencies) added to the subsequent year's appropriation of funds for grants under this part. HUD shall allocate such funds to PHAs and IHAs participating in the CGP in accordance with the formula under §968.103(e) and (f) in the subsequent FFY. A PHA that elects in any FFY not to participate in the CGP may participate in the CGP in subsequent FFYs; (2) Requests for emergency assistance. A PHA may receive funds from its formula allocation to address emergency modernization needs where HUD has not approved a PHA's comprehensive plan. To request such assistance, a PHA shall submit to HUD a request for funds in such form as HUD may prescribe, including any documentation necessary to support its claim that an emergency exists. HUD shall review the request and supporting documentation to determine if it meets the definition of “emergency work” as set forth in §968.305. [61 FR 8744, Mar. 5, 1996, as amended at 64 FR 50229, Sept. 15, 1999] (a) Submission of comprehensive plan. (1) Upon receipt of a comprehensive plan from a PHA, HUD shall determine whether: (i) The plan contains each of the required components specified at §968.315(e); and (ii) Where applicable, the PHA has submitted any additional information or assurances required as a result of HUD monitoring, findings of inadequate PHA performance, audit findings, or civil rights compliance findings; (2) Acceptance for review. If the PHA has submitted a comprehensive plan (including the action plan) which meets the criteria of paragraph (a)(1) of this section, HUD shall accept the comprehensive plan for review, within 14 calendar days of its receipt in the field office. The PHA shall be notified in writing that the comprehensive plan has been accepted by HUD for review, and that the 75-day review period is proceeding; (3) Time period for review. A comprehensive plan that is accepted by HUD for review shall be considered to be approved unless HUD notifies the PHA in writing, postmarked within 75 calendar days of the date of HUD's receipt of the comprehensive plan for review, that HUD has disapproved the plan. HUD shall not disapprove a comprehensive plan on the basis that it cannot complete its review within the 75-day deadline; (4) Rejection of comprehensive plan. If a PHA has submitted a comprehensive plan (including the action plan), which does not meet the requirements of paragraph (a)(1) of this section, HUD shall notify the PHA within 14 calendar days of its receipt that HUD has rejected the plan for review. In such case, HUD shall indicate the reasons for rejection, the modifications required to qualify the comprehensive plan for HUD review, and the deadline date for receipt of any modifications. (b) HUD approval of comprehensive plan (including action plan). (1) A comprehensive plan (including the action plan) that is accepted by HUD for review in accordance with paragraph (a) of this section shall be considered to be approved, unless HUD notifies the PHA in writing, postmarked within 75 days of the date of HUD's receipt of the comprehensive plan for review, that HUD has disapproved the plan, indicating the reasons for disapproval, and the modifications required to make the comprehensive plan approvable. The PHA must re-submit the comprehensive plan to HUD, in accordance with the deadline established by HUD, which may allow up to 75 calendar days before the end of the FFY for HUD review. If the revised plan is disapproved by HUD following its resubmission, or if the PHA fails to resubmit by the deadline established by HUD, any funds that would have been allocated to the PHA shall be added to the subsequent year's appropriation of funds for grants under this part. HUD shall allocate such funds to PHAs and IHAs participating in the CGP in accordance with the formula under §968.103(e) and (f). HUD shall not disapprove a comprehensive plan on the basis that the Department cannot complete its review under this section within the 75-day deadline; (2) HUD shall approve the Comprehensive Plan except where it makes a determination in accordance with one or more of the following: (i) Comprehensive Plan is incomplete in significant matters; (ii) Identified needs are plainly inconsistent with facts and data; (A) Identified physical improvements and replacements are inadequate; (B) Identified management improvements are inadequate; (C) Proposed physical and management improvements fail to address identified needs; (iii) Action plan is plainly inappropriate to meeting identified needs; (iv) Inadequate demonstration of long-term viability at reasonable cost; and (v) Contradiction of local government certification or PHA resolution. (c) Effect of HUD approval of Comprehensive Plan. After HUD approves the Comprehensive Plan (including the Five-Year Action Plan), or any amendments to the plan, it shall be binding upon HUD and the PHA, until such time as the PHA submits, and HUD approves, an amendment to its plan. The PHA is expected to undertake the work set forth in the Annual Statement. However, the PHA may undertake any of the work identified in any of the other four years of the latest approved Five-Year Action Plan, current approved Annual Statement or previously approved CIAP budgets, without further HUD approval. Actual uses of the funds are to be reflected in the PHA annual Performance and Evaluation Report for each grant. See §968.330. The PHA is encouraged to inform the residents of significant changes (such as changes in scope of work or whenever it moves items within the approved Five-Year Action Plan). Documentation of that information shall be retained in PHA files. If HUD determines as a result of an audit or monitoring findings that a PHA has provided false or substantially inaccurate data in its Comprehensive Plan/Annual Submission or has circumvented the intent of the program, HUD may condition the receipt of assistance, in accordance with §968.335. Moreover, in accordance with 18 U.S.C. 1001, any individual or entity who knowingly and willingly makes or uses a document or writing containing any false, fictitious or fraudulent statement or entry, in any matter within the jurisdiction of any department or agency of the United States, shall be fined not more than $10,000 or imprisoned for not more than five years, or both. [57 FR 5575, Feb. 14, 1992, as amended at 59 FR 44841, Aug. 30, 1994. Redesignated and amended at 61 FR 8747, Mar. 5, 1996] (a) General. The Annual Submission is a collective term for all documents which the PHA must submit to HUD for review and approval before accessing the current FFY grant funds. Such documents include the Annual Statement, Work Statements for years two through five of the Five-Year Action Plan, local government statement, PHA Board Resolution, materials demonstrating the partnership process and any other documents as prescribed by HUD. For planning purposes, a PHA may use either the amount of funding received in the current year or the actual formula amount provided in HUD's notification under §968.310(b)(1) in developing the Five-Year Action Plan for presentation at the resident meetings and public hearing. Work Statements cover the second through the fifth years of the Five-Year Action Plan and set forth the major work categories and costs by development or PHA-wide which the PHA intends to undertake in each year of years two through five. In preparing these Work Statements, the PHA shall assume that the current FFY formula amount will be available in each year of years two through five, as discussed in §968.315(d)(5)(i). The Work Statements for all five years will be at the same level of detail so that the PHA may interchange work items. A PHA may budget up to 8% of its annual grant in a contingency account for cost overruns. (b) Submission. After receiving HUD notification of the formula amount and estimating how much funding will be available from other sources, such as State and local governments, and determining its activities and costs based on the current FFY formula amount, the PHA shall submit its Annual Submission. (c) Acceptance for review. (1) Upon receipt of an Annual Submission from a PHA, HUD shall determine whether: (i) The Annual Submission contains each of the required components; and (ii) The PHA has submitted any additional information or assurances required as a result of HUD monitoring, findings of inadequate PHA performance, audit findings, and civil rights compliance findings. (2) If the PHA has submitted a complete Annual Submission and all required information and assurances, HUD will accept the submission for review, as of the date of receipt. If the PHA has not submitted all required material, HUD will promptly notify the PHA that it has disapproved the submission, indicating the reasons for disapproval, the modifications required to qualify the Annual Submission for HUD review, and the date by which such modifications must be received by HUD. (d) Resident and local government participation. A PHA is required to develop its Annual Submission, including any proposed amendments to its Comprehensive Plan as provided in §968.315 (b) and (c), in consultation with officials of the appropriate governing body (or, in the case of a PHA with developments in multiple jurisdictions, in consultation with the CEO of each such jurisdiction or with an advisory group representative of all jurisdictions) and with residents and duly elected resident councils of the developments covered by the Comprehensive Plan, as follows: (1) Public notice. Within a reasonable amount of time before the advance meeting for residents under paragraph (d)(2) of this section, and the public hearing under paragraph (d)(3) of this section, the PHA shall annually provide public notice of the advance meeting and the public hearing in a manner determined by the PHA and which ensures notice to all duly elected resident councils; (2) Advance Meeting with residents. The PHA shall at least annually hold a meeting open to all residents and duly elected resident councils. The advance meeting shall be held within a reasonable amount of time before the public hearing under paragraph (d)(3) of this section. The PHA will provide residents with information concerning the contents of the PHA's Five-Year Action Plan (and any proposed amendments to the PHA's Comprehensive Plan to be submitted with the Annual Submission) so that residents can comment adequately at the public hearing on the contents of the Five-Year Action Plan and any proposed amendments to the Comprehensive Plan. (3) Public hearing. The PHA shall annually hold at least one public hearing, and any appropriate number of additional hearings, to present information on the Annual Submission and the status of prior approved programs. The public hearing shall provide ample opportunity for residents of the developments covered by the Comprehensive Plan, officials of the appropriate governing body, and other interested parties, to express their priorities and concerns. The PHA shall give full consideration to the comments and concerns of residents, local government officials, and other interested parties in developing its Five-Year Action Plan, or any amendments to its Comprehensive Plan. (4) Expedited scheduling. PHAs are encouraged to hold the meeting with residents and duly elected resident councils under paragraph (d)(2) of this section, and the public hearing under paragraph (d)(3) of this section between July 1 (i.e., after the end of the program year—June 30) and September 30, using the formula amount for the current FFY. If a PHA elects to use such expedited scheduling, it must explain at the meeting with residents and duly elected resident councils and at the public hearing that the current FFY amount is not the actual grant amount for the subsequent year, but is rather the amount used for planning purposes. It must also explain that the Five-Year Action Plan will be adjusted when HUD provides notification of the actual formula amount, and explain which major work categories at which developments may be added or deleted to adjust for the actual formula amount and that any added work categories/developments will come from the Comprehensive Plan. (e) Contents of Annual Submission. The Annual Statement for each year must include, for each development or on a PHA-wide basis for management improvements or certain physical improvements for which work is to be funded out of that year's grant: (1) A list of development accounts with an identification of major work categories; (2) The cost for each major work category, as well as a summary of cost by development account; (3) The PHA-wide or development-specific management improvements to be undertaken during the year; (4) For each development and for any management improvements not covered by a HUD-approved memorandum of agreement or management improvement plan, a schedule for the use of current year funds, including target dates for the obligation and expenditure of the funds (see §968.125); (5) A summary description of the actions to be taken with non-CGP funds to meet physical and management improvement needs which have been identified by a PHA in its needs assessments; (6) Any documentation that HUD needs to assist it in carrying out its responsibilities under the National Environmental Policy Act and other related authorities in accordance with §968.110(c) and (d); (7) Other information, as specified by HUD and as approved by OMB under the Paperwork Reduction Act; and (8) A PHA resolution approving the Annual Submission or any amendments thereto, as set forth in §968.315(e)(7). (f) Additional submissions with Annual Submission. A PHA shall submit with the Annual Submission any amendments to the Comprehensive Plan, as set forth in §968.315(f), and such additional information as may be prescribed by HUD. HUD shall review any proposed amendments to the Comprehensive Plan in accordance with review standards under §968.320(b). (g) HUD review and approval of Annual Submission—(1) General. An Annual Submission accepted in accordance with paragraph (a) of this section shall be considered to be approved, unless HUD notifies the PHA in writing, postmarked within 75 calendar days of the date that HUD receives the Annual Submission for review under paragraph (c) of this section, that HUD has disapproved the Annual Submission, indicating the reasons for disapproval, the modifications required to make the Annual Submission approvable, and the date by which such modifications must be received by HUD. HUD may request additional information (e.g., for eligibility determinations) to facilitate review and approval of the Annual Submission during the 75-day review period. HUD shall not disapprove an Annual Submission on the basis that the Department cannot complete its review under this section within the 75-day deadline; (2) Bases for disapproval for Annual Submission. HUD shall approve the Annual Submission, except where: (i) Plainly inconsistent with Comprehensive Plan. HUD determines that the activities and expenditures proposed in the Annual Submission are plainly inconsistent with the PHA's approved Comprehensive Plan; (ii) Contradiction of PHA resolution. HUD has evidence which tends to challenge, in a substantial manner, the certifications contained in the board resolution, as required by §968.315(e)(7). (h) Amendments to Annual Statement. The PHA shall advise HUD of all changes to the PHA's approved Annual Statement in its Performance and Evaluation Report submitted under §968.330. The PHA shall submit to HUD for prior approval any additional work categories (except for emergency work) which are not within the PHA's approved Five-Year Action Plan. (i) Failure to obligate formula funds and extension of time for performance—(1) Failure to obligate formula funds. If the PHA fails to obligate formula funds within the approved or extended time period, the PHA may be subject to an alternative management strategy which may involve third-party oversight or administration of the modernization function. HUD would only require such action after a corrective action order had been issued under §968.335 and the PHA failed to comply with the order. HUD could then require an alternative management strategy in a corrective action order. A PHA may appeal in writing the corrective action order requiring an alternative management strategy within 30 calendar days of that order. HUD Headquarters shall render a written decision on a PHA's appeal within 30 calendar days of the date of its receipt of the PHA's appeal. (2) Extension of time for performance. A PHA may extend the target dates for fund obligation and expenditure in the approved Annual Statement whenever any delay outside the PHA's control occurs, as specified by HUD, and the extension is made in a timely manner. Such revision is subject to HUD review under §968.345(a)(2) as to the PHA's continuing capacity. HUD shall not review as to a PHA's continuing capacity any revisions to a PHA's Comprehensive Plan and related statements where the basis for the revision is that HUD has not provided the amount of assistance set forth in the Annual Submission, or has not provided such assistance in a timely manner. (j) ACC Amendment. After HUD approval of each year's Annual Submission, HUD and the PHA shall enter into an ACC amendment in order for the PHA to draw down modernization funds. The ACC amendment shall require low-income use of housing for not less than 20 years from the date of the ACC amendment (subject to sale of homeownership units in accordance with the terms of the ACC). (k) Declaration of trust. As HUD may require, the PHA shall execute and file for record a Declaration of Trust as provided under the ACC to protect the rights and interests of HUD throughout the 20-year period during which the PHA is obligated to operate its developments in accordance with the ACC, the Act, and HUD regulations and requirements. [57 FR 5575, Feb. 14, 1992, as amended at 59 FR 44841, Aug. 30, 1994. Redesignated and amended at 61 FR 8748, Mar. 5, 1996] For any FFY in which a PHA has received assistance under this subpart, the PHA shall submit a Performance and Evaluation Report, in a form and at a time to be prescribed by HUD, describing its use of assistance in accordance with the approved Annual Statement. The PHA shall make reasonable efforts to notify residents and officials of the appropriate governing body of the availability of the draft report, make copies available to residents in the development office, and provide residents with at least 30 calendar days in which to comment on the report. [57 FR 5575, Feb. 14, 1992, as amended at 59 FR 44843, Aug. 30, 1994. Redesignated and amended at 61 FR 8748, Mar. 5, 1996] (a) HUD determination. At least annually, HUD shall carry out such reviews of the performance of each PHA as may be necessary or appropriate to make the determinations required by this paragraph, taking into consideration all available evidence. (1) Conformity with comprehensive plan. HUD will determine whether the PHA has carried out its activities under this subpart in a timely manner and in accordance with its comprehensive plan. (2) Continuing capacity. HUD will determine whether the PHA has a continuing capacity to carry out its comprehensive plan in a timely manner. After the first full operational year of CGP, CIAP experience will not be taken into consideration except where the PHA has not yet had comparable experience under the CGP. (3) Reasonable progress. HUD shall determine whether the PHA has satisfied, or has made reasonable progress towards satisfying, the following performance standards: (i) Conformity with its comprehensive plan, including its annual statement and latest HUD-approved five-year action plan, and other statutory and regulatory requirements; (ii) Continuing capacity to carry out its comprehensive plan in a timely manner and expend the annual grant funds; and (iii) Reasonable progress toward bringing all of its developments to the modernization and energy conservation standards and toward implementing the work specified in the annual statement or five-year action plan designed to address management deficiencies. (b) Notice of deficiency. Based on HUD reviews of PHA performance and findings of any of the deficiencies in paragraph (d) of this section, HUD may issue to the PHA a notice of deficiency stating the specific program requirements which the PHA has violated and requesting the PHA to take any of the actions in paragraph (e) of this section. (c) Corrective action order. (1) Based on HUD reviews of PHA performance and findings of any of the deficiencies in paragraph (d) of this section, HUD may issue to the PHA a corrective action order, whether or not a notice of deficiency has previously been issued in regard to the specific deficiency on which the corrective action order is based. HUD may order corrective action at any time by notifying the PHA of the specific program requirements which the PHA has violated, and specifying that any of the corrective actions listed in paragraph (e) of this section must be taken. HUD shall design corrective action to prevent a continuation of the deficiency, mitigate any adverse effects of the deficiency to the extent possible, or prevent a recurrence of the same or similar deficiencies; (2) Before ordering corrective action, HUD will notify the PHA and give it an opportunity to consult with HUD regarding the proposed action; (3) Any corrective action ordered by HUD shall become a condition of the grant agreement; (4) If HUD orders corrective action by a PHA in accordance with this section, the PHA's Board of Commissioners must notify affected residents of HUD's determination, the bases for the determination, the conditioning requirements imposed under this paragraph, and the consequences to the PHA if it fails to comply with HUD's requirements. (d) Basis for corrective action. HUD may order a PHA to take corrective action only if HUD determines: (1) The PHA has not submitted a performance and evaluation report, in accordance with §968.330; (2) The PHA has not carried out its activities under the CGP program in a timely manner and in accordance with its comprehensive plan or HUD requirements, as determined in paragraph (a)(1) of this section; (3) The PHA does not have a continuing capacity to carry out its comprehensive plan in a timely manner or in accordance with its comprehensive plan or HUD requirements, as determined in paragraph (a)(2) of this section; (4) The PHA has not satisfied, or has not made reasonable progress towards satisfying, the performance standards specified in paragraph (a)(3) of this section; (5) An audit conducted in accordance with 24 CFR part 44, or pursuant to other HUD reviews (including monitoring findings) reveals deficiencies that HUD reasonably believes require corrective action; or (6) The PHA has failed to repay HUD for amounts awarded under the CGP program that were improperly expended. (e) Types of corrective action. HUD may direct a PHA to take one or more of the following corrective actions: (1) Submit additional information: (i) Concerning the PHA's administrative, planning, budgeting, accounting, management, and evaluation functions, to determine the cause for a PHA not meeting the standards in paragraph (a)(1), (a)(2), or (a)(3) of this section; (ii) Explaining any steps the PHA is taking to correct the deficiencies; (iii) Documenting that PHA activities were not inconsistent with the PHA's annual statement or other applicable laws, regulations, or program requirements; and (iv) Demonstrating that the PHA has a continuing capacity to carry out the comprehensive plan in a timely manner; (2) Submit detailed schedules for completing the work identified in its Annual Statements and report periodically on its progress on meeting the schedules; (3) Notwithstanding 24 CFR 85.36(g), submit to HUD the following documents for prior approval, which may include, but are not limited to: (i) Proposed agreement with the architect/engineer (prior to execution); (ii) Complete construction and bid documents (prior to soliciting bids); (iii) Proposed award of contracts, including construction and equipment contracts and management contracts; or (iv) Proposed contract modifications prior to issuance, including modifications to construction and equipment contracts, and management contracts; (4) Submit additional material in support of one or more of the statements, resolutions, and certifications submitted as part of the PHA's Comprehensive Plan, Five-Year Action Plan, or Performance and Evaluation Report; (5) Not incur financial obligations, or to suspend payments for one or more activities; (6) Reimburse, from non-HUD sources, one or more program accounts for any amounts improperly expended; (7) Submit to an alternative management strategy which may involve third-party oversight or administration of the modernization function; and (8) Take such other corrective actions HUD determines appropriate to correct PHA deficiencies. (f) Failure to take corrective action. In cases where HUD has ordered corrective action and the PHA has failed to take the required actions within a reasonable time, as specified by HUD, HUD may take one or more of the following steps; (1) Withhold some or all of the PHA's grant; (2) Declare a breach of the ACC grant amendment with respect to some or all of the PHA's functions; or (3) Any other sanction authorized by law or regulation. (g) Reallocation of funds that have been withheld. Where HUD has withheld for a prescribed period of time some or all of a PHA's annual grant, HUD may reallocate such amounts to other PHAs/IHAs under the CGP program, subject to approval in appropriations acts. The reallocation shall be made to IHAs which HUD has determined to be administratively capable under §950.135, and to PHAs under the CGP program which are not designated as either troubled or mod troubled under the PHMAP at 24 CFR part 901, based upon the relative needs of these IHAs and PHAs, as determined under the formula at §968.103(e) and (f). (h) Right to appeal. Before withholding some or all of the PHA's annual grant, declaring a breach of the ACC grant amendment, or reallocating funds that have been withheld, HUD will notify the PHA and give it an opportunity, within a prescribed period of time, to present to the Assistant Secretary for Public and Indian Housing any arguments or additional facts and data concerning the proposed action. (i) Notification of residents. The PHA's Board of Commissioners must notify affected residents of HUD's final determination to withhold funds, declare a breach of the ACC grant amendment, or reallocate funds, as well as the basis for, and the consequences resulting from, such a determination. (j) Recapture. In addition, HUD may recapture for good cause any grant amounts previously provided to an PHA, based upon a determination that the PHA has failed to comply with the requirements of the CGP program. Before recapturing any grant amounts, HUD will notify the PHA and give it an opportunity to appeal in accordance with paragraph (h) of this section. Any reallocation of recaptured amounts will be reallocated in accordance with paragraph (g) of this section. The PHA's board of Commissioners must notify affected residents of HUD's final determination to recapture any funds. (k) Cumulative remedies. The authority to condition, withhold, reallocate or recapture a PHA's grant, as provided in this section, is in addition to the authority contained in §968.310(c) to reduce a PHA's formula allocation based upon its designation as a mod troubled PHA.
