Abstract: The Office of Assistant Secretary for Administration, Program Support Center Federal Property Assistance Program is requesting approval by OMB on a revision. Cited, 40 U.S.C. 550, as amended, provides authority to the Secretary of Health and Human Services to convey or lease surplus real property to States and their political subdivisions and instrumentalities, to tax-supported institutions, and to nonprofit institutions which (except for institutions which lease property to assist the homeless) have been held exempt from taxation under Section 501(c)(3) of the 1954 Internal Revenue Code, and 501(c)(19) for veterans organizations, for public health purposes. Title V of the McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance Act (Title V) extended the Secretary's authority to include homeless assistance purposes as a permissible use under public health. The Federal Asset and Transfer Act of 2016 (Pub. L. 114-287) streamlined the Title V process bifurcating the application process. Transfers are made to transferees at little or no cost.
Need and Proposed Use of the Information: State and local governments and non-profit institutions use these applications to apply for excess/surplus, underutilized/unutilized and off-site government real property. These applications are used to determine if institutions/organizations are eligible to purchase, lease or use property under the provisions of the surplus real property program.
