24 C.F.R. § 902.43 Management operations performance standards.
Title 24 - Housing and Urban Development
(a) Management operations sub-indicators. The following sub-indicators listed in this section will be used to assess a PHA's management operations. The components and grades for each sub-indicator are the same as those provided in Appendix 1 to the PHAS Notice on the Management Operations Scoring Process, except as may be otherwise noted in this subpart. (1) Management sub-indicator #1—Vacant Unit Turnaround Time. This sub-indicator measures the PHA's efforts to reduce unit turnaround time and assesses the adequacy of the PHA's system to track unit down time, make ready time and lease up time. (2) Management sub-indicator #2—Capital Fund. This management sub-indicator examines the amount and percentage of funds provided to the PHA from the Capital Fund under section 9(d) of the Act, which remain unexpended by the PHA after three years, the timeliness of fund obligation, the adequacy of contract administration, the quality of the physical work, and the adequacy of budget controls. For funding under the HOPE VI Program, only components #3, #4, and #5 of this sub-indicator are applicable. This management sub-indicator is automatically excluded if the PHA does not have section 9(d) capital funding. (3) Management sub-indicator #3—Work Orders. This management sub-indicator examines the time it takes to complete or abate emergency work orders, the average number of days nonemergency work orders were active, and any progress a PHA has made during the preceding three years to reduce the period of time nonemergency maintenance work orders were active. Implicit in this management sub-indicator is the adequacy of the PHA's work order system in terms of how a PHA accounts for and controls its work orders, and its timeliness in preparing/issuing work orders. (4) Management sub-indicator #4—PHA Annual Inspection of Units and Systems. This management sub-indicator examines the percentage of units and systems that a PHA inspects on an annual basis in order to determine short-term maintenance needs and long-term Capital Fund needs. This management sub-indicator requires a PHA's inspection to utilize the HUD uniform physical condition standards set forth in subpart B of this part. All occupied units are required to be inspected. (5) Management sub-indicator #5—Security. (i) This management sub-indicator evaluates the PHA's performance in tracking crime related problems in their developments; reporting incidence of crime to local law enforcement agencies; the adoption and implementation, consistent with section 6(j)(1)(I) (42 U.S.C. 1437d(j)(1)(I)), of applicant screening and resident eviction policies and procedures, and other anticrime strategies; coordination with local government officials and residents in the development on implementation of such strategies; and as applicable, PHA performance under any HUD drug prevention/crime reduction grants. (ii) Paragraph (a) of this section provides that the components and grades for each sub-indicator are the same as those for the corresponding indicator provided in Appendix 1 to the PHAS Notice on the Management Operations Scoring Process, except as may be otherwise noted. For Component #1, Tracking and Reporting Crime Related Problems, the following will be used to describe a Grade of A: The PHA Board, by resolution, has adopted policies and the PHA has implemented procedures and can document that it: (A) Tracks crime and crime-related problems in at least 90 percent of its developments; (B) Has a cooperative system for tracking and reporting incidents of crime to local police authorities to improve law enforcement and crime prevention; and (C) Coordinates with local government officials and its residents on the implementation of anticrime strategies. (6) Management sub-indicator #6—Economic Self-Sufficiency. The economic self-sufficiency sub-indicator measures the PHA's efforts to coordinate, promote or provide effective programs and activities to promote the economic self-sufficiency of residents. For this sub-indicator, PHAs will be assessed for all the programs that the PHA has HUD funding to implement. Also, PHAs will receive credit for implementation of programs through partnerships with non-PHA providers, even if the programs are not funded by HUD or the PHA. (b) Reporting on performance under the Management Operations Indicator. (1) A PHA is required to submit electronically a certification of its performance under each of the management operations sub-indicators in accordance with §902.60(d). (2) If circumstances preclude a PHA from reporting electronically, HUD will consider granting short-term approval to allow a PHA to submit its management operations certification manually. A PHA that seeks approval to submit its certification manually must ensure that REAC receives a request for manual submission in writing two months prior to the submission due date of its Management Operations certification. The written request must include the reasons why the PHA cannot submit its certification electronically. REAC will respond to such a request and will manually forward its determination in writing to the PHA. [65 FR 36044, June 6, 2000]
