DEPARTMENT OF HOUSING AND URBAN DEVELOPMENT

[Docket No. FR-4936-N-04]

Notice of Regulatory Waiver Requests Granted for the Fourth Quarter of Calendar Year 2004

AGENCY: Office of the General Counsel, HUD.

ACTION: Notice.

SUMMARY: Section 106 of the Department of Housing and Urban Development Reform Act of 1989 (the HUD Reform Act) requires HUD to publish quarterly Federal Register notices of all regulatory waivers that HUD has approved. Each notice covers the quarterly period since the previous Federal Register notice. The purpose of this notice is to comply with the requirements of section 106 of the HUD Reform Act. This notice contains a list of regulatory waivers granted by HUD during the period beginning on October 1, 2004, and ending on December 31, 2004.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For general information about this notice, contact Aaron Santa Anna, Assistant General Counsel for Regulations, Room 10276, Department of Housing and Urban Development, 451 Seventh Street, SW., Washington, DC 20410-0500, telephone 202-708- 3055 (this is not a toll-free number). Persons with hearing-or speech- impairments may access this number through TTY by calling the toll-free Federal Information Relay Service at 800-877-8339.

For information concerning a particular waiver that was granted and for which public notice is provided in this document, contact the person whose name and address follow the description of the waiver granted in the accompanying list of waivers that have been granted in the fourth quarter of calendar year 2004.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 106 of the HUD Reform Act added a new section 7(q) to the Department of Housing and Urban Development Act (42 U.S.C. 3535(q)), which provides that:

1. Any waiver of a regulation must be in writing and must specify the grounds for approving the waiver;

2. Authority to approve a waiver of a regulation may be delegated by the Secretary only to an individual of Assistant Secretary or equivalent rank, and the person to whom authority to waive is delegated must also have authority to issue the particular regulation to be waived;

3. Not less than quarterly, the Secretary must notify the public of all waivers of regulations that HUD has approved, by publishing a notice in the Federal Register. These notices (each covering the period since the most recent previous notification) shall:

  1. Identify the project, activity, or undertaking involved;

  2. Describe the nature of the provision waived and the designation of the provision;

  3. Indicate the name and title of the person who granted the waiver request;

  4. Describe briefly the grounds for approval of the request; and

  5. State how additional information about a particular waiver may be obtained.

Section 106 of the HUD Reform Act also contains requirements applicable to waivers of HUD handbook provisions that are not relevant to the purpose of this notice.

This notice follows procedures provided in HUD's Statement of Policy on Waiver of Regulations and Directives issued on April 22, 1991 (56 FR 16337). This notice covers waivers of regulations granted by HUD from October 1, 2004, through December 31, 2004. For ease of reference, the waivers granted by HUD are listed by HUD program office (for example, the Office of Community Planning and Development, the Office of Fair Housing and Equal Opportunity, the Office of Housing, and the Office of Public and Indian Housing, etc.). Within each program office grouping, the waivers are listed sequentially by the regulatory section of title 24 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) that is being waived. For example, a waiver of a provision in 24 CFR part 58 would be listed before a waiver of a provision in 24 CFR part 570.

Where more than one regulatory provision is involved in the grant of a particular waiver request, the action is listed under the section number of the first regulatory requirement that appears in 24 CFR and that is being waived. For example, a waiver of both Sec. 58.73 and Sec. 58.74 would appear sequentially in the listing under Sec. 58.73.

Waiver of regulations that involve the same initial regulatory citation are in time sequence beginning with the earliest-dated regulatory waiver.

Should HUD receive additional information about waivers granted during the period covered by this report (the fourth quarter of calendar year 2004) before the next report is published (the first quarter of calendar year 2005), HUD will include any additional waivers granted for the fourth quarter in the next report.

Accordingly, information about approved waiver requests pertaining to HUD regulations is provided in the Appendix that follows this notice.

Dated: April 1, 2005. Kathleen D. Koch, Deputy General Counsel.

    For further information about the following regulatory waivers, please see the name of the contact person that immediately follows the description of the waiver granted.

    Regulations: 24 CFR 92.214(a)(6).

    Project/Activity: The State of Oregon requested a waiver of the Sec. 92.214(a)(6) of the HOME Program regulations (24 CFR part 92).

    Nature of Requirement: Section 92.214(a)(6) of the HOME Program regulations states that, except up to one year after project completion, HOME assistance may not be provided to a project previously assisted with HOME funds during the period of affordability.

    Granted By: Roy A. Bernardi.

    Date Granted: October 26, 2004.

    Reasons Waived: The Community Partners for Affordable Housing (CPAH), and its partners worked to correct physical, management and financial problems, they explored whether the project would be viable with improvements through a market study, determined what repairs and improvements were needed through thorough inspections, and secured funds for emergency repairs.

    Contact: Shawna Burrell, Office of Community Planning and Development, Department of Housing and Urban Development, 451 Seventh Street, SW., Washington, DC 20410-7000, telephone (202) 708- 2684.

    Regulations: 24 CFR 92.251(a) and 24 CFR 92.254(b)(4).

    Project/Activity: The State of West Virginia requested a waiver at 24 CFR 92.251(a) and 254(b)(4) to facilitate an emergency home repair program serving the victims of flooding in presidentially- declared disaster areas.

    Nature of Requirement: The HOME program regulations at 24 CFR 92.251(a) require all units rehabilitated with HOME funds to meet specific property standards. The HOME program regulations at 24 CFR

    [[Page 18195]]

    254(b)(4) requires homeownership units assisted with HOME funds to have after rehabilitation values that do not exceed 95 percent of area median purchase price.

    Granted By: Roy A. Bernardi, Deputy Secretary.

    Date Granted: December 28, 2004.

    Reasons Waived: The waiver was granted to permit the state to respond expeditiously to the needs of affected low-income homeowners in the presidentially-declared disaster areas irrespective of the value of their homes. The waiver will also permit the state to more efficiently use its limited HOME funding to address only disaster- related damage to the homes, without being required to address all other deficiencies in the homes.

    Contact: Shawna Burrell, Office of Community Planning and Development, Department of Housing and Urban Development, 451 Seventh Street, SW., Washington, DC 20410-7000, telephone (202) 708- 2684.

    Regulations: 24 CFR 92.252 and 254(a)(3).

    Project/Activity: The Tennessee Housing Development Agency (THDA) requested a waiver on behalf of the Housing Development Corporation Clinch Valley (HDC).

    Nature of Requirement: THDA requested that a HOME-assisted homebuyer unit that was subsequently sold and operated as rental unit be permitted to qualify as affordable housing under Sec. 92.252. Section 92.254(a)(3) of the HOME Program regulations states that the homebuyer must be low-income and the housing must be the family's primary residence for the period of affordability.

    Granted By: Roy A. Bernardi, Deputy Secretary.

    Date Granted: November 12, 2004.

    Reasons Waived: The purpose of conversion of the unit to rental housing was to preserve an affordable housing resource and meet a need in the community, to benefit the disabled.

    Contact: Shawna Burrell, Office of Community Planning and Development, Department of Housing and Urban Development, 451 Seventh Street, SW., Washington, DC 20410-7000, telephone (202) 708- 2684.

    Regulations: 24 CFR 570.208(a)(3), 24 CFR 570.208(a)(1), 24 CFR 570.5, and 24 CFR 570.201(n).

    Project/Activity: Dane County of Wisconsin has requested a waiver under 24 CFR 570.208(a)(3) of the CDBG program regulations.

    Nature of Requirements: HUD's regulations in 24 CFR 570.208 require that at least 51 percent of the units in a multi-unit residential structure and 100 percent of single unit residential structures be occupied by low- and moderate-income households.

    Granted By: Roy A. Bernardi, Deputy Secretary.

    Date Granted: December 14, 2004.

    Reasons Waived: The waiver will allow less than 100 percent of the single unit structures to be sold to low- and moderate-income households, which will increase the supply of affordable housing available to such households while using a relatively modest investment of CDBG funds, as a proportion of the total cost. The granting of this waiver is consistent with the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974.

    Contact: Gloria Coates, Office of Community Planning and Development, Department of Housing and Urban Development, 451 Seventh Street, SW., Washington, DC 20410-7000, telephone (202) 708- 1577.

  3. Regulatory Waivers Granted by the Office of Housing--Federal Housing Administration (FHA)

    For further information about the following regulatory waivers, please see the name of the contact person that immediately follows the description of the waiver granted.

    Regulation: 24 CFR 219.220(b).

    Project/Activity: High Park Terrace Cooperative, Newark, New Jersey, FHA Project Number: 031-55032.

    Nature of Requirement: Section 219.220(b) governs the repayment of operating assistance provided under the Flexible Subsidy Program for Troubled Projects prior to May 1, 1996 states: ``Assistance that has been paid to a project owner under this subpart must be repaid at the earlier of the expiration of the term of the mortgage, termination of mortgage insurance, prepayment of the mortgage, or a sale of the project. * * *'' Either of these actions would typically terminate FHA involvement with the property, and the Flexible Subsidy loan would be repaid, in whole, at that time.

    Granted by: John C. Weicher, Assistant Secretary for Housing-- Federal Housing Commissioner.

    Date Granted: October 28, 2004.

    Reason Waived: The waiver was granted in order to allow the owner of High Park Terrace Cooperative to prepay the mortgage and forbear repayment of the outstanding Flexible Subsidy loan upon prepayment of the insured mortgage until January 1, 2012, the original insured mortgage maturity date. The cooperative has maintained affordability under the section 221(d)(3) Below Market Interest Rate (BMIR) program but has in recent years experienced difficulty in maintaining and improving the property due to budgetary constraints. The waiver allows the cooperative to prepay the existing mortgage and refinance to perform substantial rehabilitation of the property and allow the repayment of the Flexible Subsidy loan.

    Contact: Beverly J. Miller, Director, Office of Asset Management, Office of Housing, Department of Housing and Urban Development, 451 Seventh Street, SW., Washington, DC 20410-8000, telephone 202-708-3730.

    Regulation: 24 CFR 219.220(b).

    Project/Activity: Lakeview Towers, FHA Project No: 071-55109, Chicago, Illinois.

    Nature of Requirement: Section 219.220(b) of HUD's regulations governs the repayment of operating assistance provided under the Flexible Subsidy Program for Troubled Projects prior to May 1, 1996 states: ``Assistance that has been paid to a project owner under this subpart must be repaid at the earlier of the expiration of the term of the mortgage, termination of mortgage insurance, prepayment of the mortgage, or a sale of the project. * * *'' Either of these actions would typically terminate FHA involvement with the property, and the Flexible Subsidy loan would be repaid, in whole, at that time.

    Granted by: John C. Weicher, Assistant Secretary for Housing-- Federal Housing Commissioner.

    Date Granted: October 28, 2004.

    Reason Waived: The waiver was granted to allow the owners to repay a Flexible Subsidy loan and refinance a section 221(d)(3) BMIR mortgage with a section 221(d)(4) mortgage. There is also a note from the Illinois Housing Development Authority in third position. The Flexible Subsidy note is in fourth position. Waiver of this regulation will allow the owner to defer payment of the Flexible Subsidy loan, which will then be placed in third position. The owner is proposing to pay off the first and second mortgages. Funds in the amount of $10.7 million will be made available to complete needed repairs and rehabilitation and allow the project to maintain rents at an affordable level.

    Contact: Beverly J. Miller, Director, Office of Asset Management, Office of Housing, Department of Housing and Urban Development, 451 Seventh Street, SW., Washington, DC 20410-8000, telephone 202-708-3730.

    Regulation: 24 CFR 219.220(b).

    Project/Activity: Community Homes Project, Baltimore, Maryland.

    Nature of Requirement: Section 219.220(b) of HUD's regulations governs the prepayment of operating assistance provided under the Flexible Subsidy Program for Troubled Projects prior to May 1, 1996 and states: ``Assistance that has been paid to a project owner under this subpart must be repaid at the earlier of the expiration of the term of the mortgage, termination of mortgage insurance, prepayment of the mortgage, or a sale of the project. * * *'' Either of these actions would typically terminate FHA involvement with the property, and the Flexible Subsidy loan would be repaid, in whole, at that time.

    Granted by: John C. Weicher, Assistant Secretary for Housing-- Federal Housing Commissioner.

    Date Granted: December 23, 2004.

    Reason Waived: The waiver was granted for the required repayment of the existing Flexible Subsidy note of $853,130. Flexible Subsidy was provided to assist the owner with repairs and upgrades in return for maintaining the low-income character and use of this property. The Flexible Subsidy note as originally written is due on sale of the property, refinance or prepayment of the first mortgage. The waiver allows transfer of the assumption of the Flexible Subsidy note to the new purchaser. This action is necessary to ensure the long-term viability of the property as a low-income housing resource.

    Contact: Beverly J. Miller, Director, Office of Asset Management, Office of Housing, Department of Housing and Urban Development, 451 Seventh Street, SW., Washington, DC 20410-8000, telephone 202-708-3730.

    Regulation: 24 CFR 291.100(a)(ii).

    Project/Activity: Competitive bidding on property located at 920 Page Street, Kewanee, IL.

    [[Page 18196]]

    Nature of Requirement: Section 291.100(a)(ii) of HUD's regulations does not permit a non-occupant mortgagor (whether an original mortgagor, assumption, or a person who purchased ``subject to'') of an insured mortgage who has defaulted, thereby causing HUD to pay an insurance claim on the mortgage to repurchase the same property.

    Granted By: John C. Weicher, Assistant Secretary for Housing-- Federal Housing Commissioner.

    Date Granted: December 20, 2004.

    Reason Waived: Granting of the waiver advances HUD's goal of expanding homeownership opportunities and increase access to affordable housing. In addition, the sale of the property provides the maximum return to the mortgage insurance fund.

    Contact: Wanda Sampedro, Director of Asset Management Division, Department of Housing and Urban Development, 451 Seventh Street, SW., Washington, DC 20410-8000, telephone 202-708-1672.

    Regulation: 24 CFR 291.570.

    Project/Activity: The waiver is applicable to the Officer Next Door/Teacher Next Door Sales program. The waiver was requested for certain owners called for active military duty during the owner- occupancy requirement period required by the program.

    Nature of Requirement: Section 291.570 of HUD's regulations provides that to remain a participant in the Officer Next Door Sales program, the owner must, for the entire duration of the owner- occupancy term.

    Granted By: John C. Weicher, Assistant Secretary for Housing- Federal Housing Commissioner.

    Date Granted: December 29, 2004.

    Reason Waived: The waiver request was to allow a purchaser of a program home called to active military service during the first three years of ownership (e.g., required owner-occupant period) to count the service on active duty towards satisfaction of the three- year requirement. The Department recognizes the impossibility of performance of the occupancy requirement by OND/TND borrowers who are currently fulfilling the requirements of their occupancy period, and are called to active military duty at posts outside the commuting area of their hometowns. Permitting OND/TND borrowers to receive credit for time served on active military duty as a credit against the OND/TND program occupancy requirement will not be detrimental to the insurance fund.

    Contact: Wanda Sampedro, Director of Asset Management Division, Department of Housing and Urban Development, 451 Seventh Street, SW., Washington, DC 20410-8000, telephone 202-708-1672.

    Regulation: 24 CFR 883.606(b).

    Project/Activity: Florida Housing Finance Corporation, Tallahassee, Florida.

    Nature of Requirement: Section 883.606(b) entitles the state agency to a reasonable fee, determined by HUD, for constructed or substantially rehabilitated units provided there is no override on the permanent loan granted by the state agency to the owner for a project containing assisted units.

    Granted by: John C. Weicher, Assistant Secretary for Housing-- Federal Housing Commissioner.

    Date Granted: November 1, 2004.

    Reason Waived: The regulation was waived in order to rectify the omission to earlier

    [[Page 18197]]

    enforce a regulatory prohibition of both contract administration fees and bond yield override in connection with the same project and neglected to issue formal waivers at the time of approval. HUD proposed to correct this oversight by providing agencies in violation of this rule an opportunity to request and justify formal waivers. Since the Florida Housing Finance Corporation has only used override revenues for projects which comply with the requirements of section 1012 of the McKinney Act and are allocated to the state agency's very-low income housing programs which conforms and supports the affordable housing objectives of the McKinney Act and HUD's bond refunding program, the waiver is granted to the 1992 Series A General Mortgage Revenue Refunding Bonds of the Florida Housing Finance Corporation.

    Contact: Beverly J. Miller, Director, Office of Asset Management, Office of Housing, Department of Housing and Urban Development, 451 Seventh Street, SW., Washington, DC 20410-8000, telephone 202-708-3730.

    Regulation: 24 CFR 883.606(b).

    Project/Activity: Oregon Department of Housing and Community Services, Salem, Oregon.

    Nature of Requirement: Section 883.606(b) entitles the state agency to a reasonable fee, determined by HUD, for constructed or substantially rehabilitated units provided there is no override on the permanent loan granted by the state agency to the owner for a project containing assisted units.

    Granted by: John C. Weicher, Assistant Secretary for Housing-- Federal Housing Commissioner.

    Date Granted: November 5, 2004.

    Reason Waived: The waiver of the regulation permits the collection of both contract administration fees and bond yield override in connection with the same projects. Since the Oregon Housing and Community Services Department uses override revenues for projects which comply with the requirements of section 1012 of the McKinney Act and are allocated to the state agency's very-low income housing programs which conforms and supports the affordable housing objectives of the McKinney Act and HUD's bond refunding program, the waiver is granted to the Series A 2004 Mortgage Revenue Refunding Bonds of the Oregon Housing and Community Services Department.

    Granted by: John C. Weicher, Assistant Secretary for Housing-- Federal Housing Commissioner.

    Date Granted: October 5, 2004.

    Granted By: Michael Liu, Assistant Secretary for Public and Indian Housing.

    Date Granted: October 25, 2004.

    Regulation: 24 CFR 983.51(a), (b) and (c), 983.55 (a) and (d), and 983.203(a)(3).

    Project/Activity: Housing Authority of the County of Marin (HACM), Marin County, CA. The HACM requested a waiver of competitive selection of owner proposals and waiting list requirements to permit it to attach PBA to 27 units at the Point Reyes Affordable Housing Project and 8 units at Hamilton Transitional Housing Phase II Project and maintain project-specific waiting lists for each project.

    Nature of Requirement: Sections 983.51(a), (b) and (c) and 983.55 (a) and (d), requires competitive selection of owner proposals in accordance with a public housing agency's (PHA) HUD- approved advertisement and unit selection policy. Section 983.203(a)(3) states that a PHA may use the tenant-based waiting list, a merged waiting list, or a separate PBA waiting list for admission to the PBA program. If a PHA opts to have a separate PBA waiting list, it may use a single waiting list for all PBA projects or may use a separate PBA waiting list for an area not smaller than a county or municipality.

    Granted By: Michael Liu, Assistant Secretary for Public and Indian Housing.

    Date Granted: October 18, 2004.

    Reason Waived: Approval to waive competitive selection was granted since both projects underwent a competitive process for CDBG and HOME funds awarded by Marin County. On an annual basis Marin County receives between 75 and 100 requests for these funds, and awards are made to approximately half of the applicants. Approval to waive the waiting list requirements was granted since, although not implemented by regulation, section 8(o)(13)(J) of the United States Housing Act of 1937, as amended, allows, subject to a PHA's waiting list policies and selection preferences, the maintenance of separate waiting lists for PBA structures as long as all families on the PHA's waiting list for PBA can place their names on any of the separate PBA waiting lists.

Jurison, Director, Housing Voucher Management and Operations Division, Office of Public Housing and Voucher Programs, Office of Public and Indian Housing, Department of Housing and Urban Development, 451 Seventh Street, SW., Room 4210, Washington, DC 20410-5000, telephone 202-708-0477.

    Regulation: 24 CFR 983.51, 24 CFR 983.203, and Section II subpart E of the January 16, 2001, Federal Register notice, Revisions to PHA Project-Based Assistance (PBA) Program; Initial Guidance (Initial Guidance).

    Project/Activity: St. Louis Housing Authority (SLHA), St. Louis, MO. SLHA requested waivers of 24 CFR 983.51 regarding competitive selection of owner proposals, deconcentration requirements and waiting list requirements so that it could attach PBA to 26 units at Vaughn Elderly Redevelopment.

    Nature of Requirement: Section 983.51 of HUD's regulations requires that the PHA adopt a written policy establishing competitive procedures for selection of owner proposals; Section II subpart E of the initial guidance requires that in order to meet the Department's goal of deconcentration and expanding housing and economic opportunities, the projects must be in census tracts with poverty rates of less than 20 percent. Section 983.203(a)(3) of HUD's regulations states that if a PHA opts to have a separate PBA waiting list, it may use a single waiting list for all PBA projects or may use a separate PBA waiting list for an area not smaller than a county or municipality.

    Granted By: Michael Liu, Assistant Secretary for Public and Indian Housing.

    Date Granted: December 9, 2004.

    Reason Waived: Approval to waive competitive selection was granted since the developer's partner, McCormack Baron Salazar, Inc., was competitively selected by SLHA in accordance with 24 CFR 941.602(d)(1). Section 941.602(d)(1) is comparable to the competitive process requirements for PBA.

    An exception to the deconcentration requirements was granted since the development is undertaken pursuant to a redevelopment plan, which will deconcentrate poverty in the area, as well as expand housing and economic opportunities. The redevelopment plan is being carried out in the immediate vicinity of the George L. Vaughn Residence at Murphy Park. The Vaughn Elderly Redevelopment, while undertaken separately from the George L. Vaughn Residence at Murphy Park redevelopment effort, is an integral component of such effort. Additionally, the City of St. Louis has determined that the redevelopment of Vaughn Elderly Redevelopment is consistent with the city's Consolidated Plan and the City has agreed to provide tax abatement for the property and has designated Vaughn Elderly Redevelopment as a redevelopment area.

    In light of the expansion of housing and economic opportunities and the revitalization efforts taking place, it was determined that the goals involved in this project are consistent with the goal of deconcentrating poverty and expanding housing and economic opportunities.

    Approval of the waiver request for Sec. 983.203(a)(3) was granted so that the owner can maintain, and select applicants from, a site-based waiting list. SLHA and the owner have agreed that the owner's site-based waiting list for public housing units shall be deemed SLHA's separate waiting list for PBA units and that the owner will select tenants for PBA from this site-based waiting list.

Jurison, Director, Housing Voucher Management and Operations Division, Office of Public Housing and Voucher Programs, Office of Public and Indian Housing, Department of Housing and Urban Development, 451 Seventh Street, SW., Room 4210, Washington, DC 20410-5000, telephone 202-708-0477.

    Project/Activity: Housing Authority of the City of New Haven (HACNH), New Haven, CT. The HACNH requested an exception to the initial guidance to allow the attachment of PBA to units at the Quinnipiac Terrace project. HACNH also requested a waiver of 24 CFR Section 983.203(a)(3) to allow HACNH to maintain a site-specific waiting list for the project.

    Nature of Requirement: Section 983.203(a)(3) of HUD's regulations states that a PHA may use the tenant-based waiting list, a merged waiting list, or a separate PBA waiting list for admission to the PBA program. If a PHA opts to have a separate PBA waiting list, it may use a single waiting list for all PBA projects or may use a separate PBA waiting list for an area not smaller than a county or municipality.

    Section II subpart E of the Initial Guidance requires that in order to meet the statutory goal of deconcentration and expanding housing and economic opportunities, the projects must be in census tracts with poverty rates of less than 20 percent.

    Granted By: Michael Liu, Assistant Secretary for Public and Indian Housing.

    Date Granted: December 28, 2004.

    Reason Waived: An exception to the deconcentration requirements was granted since the neighborhood is undergoing significant revitalization. The Revitalization plans for the project included the replacement of 256 public housing units with 114 public housing units--resulting in a significant decrease in assisted housing units--and the addition of 19 market-rate homeownership units. Section 983.203(a)(3) of HUD's regulations was waived since section 8(o)(13)(J) of the United States Housing Act of 1937, as amended, allows, subject to a PHA's waiting list policies and selection preferences, the maintenance of separate waiting lists for PBA structures as long as all families on the PHA's waiting list for PBA can place their names on any of the separate PBA waiting lists.

    Granted By: Michael Liu, Assistant Secretary for Public and Indian Housing.

    Date Granted: November 9, 2004.

    Reason Waived: The PHA alleges that records had to be reconstructed and verified after the former executive director was relieved of his duties for misconduct. The PHA was granted until December 31, 2004, to submit its audit.

    Project/Activity: City of Pensacola Housing Authority (CPHA), Pensacola, FL. CPHA requested a waiver regarding the certification requirement under the Section Eight Management Assessment Program (SEMAP).

    Nature of Requirement: Section 985.101 of HUD's regulations requires a PHA to submit the required SEMAP certification form within 60 calendar days after the end of the PHA's fiscal year.

    Granted By: Michael Liu, Assistant Secretary for Public and Indian Housing.

    Date Granted: December 20, 2004.

    Project/Activity: Jackson, OH, Metropolitan Housing Authority. A request was made to permit the Jackson Metropolitan Housing Authority to benefit from energy performance contracting for developments that have resident-paid utilities. The Jackson Metropolitan Housing Authority estimates that it could increase energy savings substantially if it were able to undertake energy performance contracting for its resident-paid utilities.

    Nature of Requirement: Under 24 CFR part 990, Operating Fund Formula energy conservation incentive that relates to energy performance contracting currently applies only to PHA-paid utilities. The Jackson Metropolitan Housing Authority has resident- paid utilities.

    Granted By: Michael Liu, Assistant Secretary for Public and Indian Housing.

    Date Granted: November 12, 2004.

    Reason Waived: In September 1996, the Oakland Housing Authority was granted a waiver to permit the Authority to benefit from energy performance contracting for developments with resident-paid utilities. The waiver was granted on the basis that the Authority presented a sound and reasonable methodology for doing so. The Jackson Metropolitan Housing Authority requested a waiver based on the same approved methodology. The waiver permits the Authority to exclude from its Operating Fund calculation of rental income the increased rental income due to the difference between updated baseline utility allowances (before implementation of the energy conservation measures) and revised allowances (after implementation of the measures) for the project(s) involved for the duration of the contract period, which cannot exceed 12 years.
