SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This 

notice informs the public that HUD is 

seeking approval from OMB for the 

information collection described in 

Section A. 

A. Overview of Information Collection 

Title of Information Collection: Public 

Housing—Contracting with ResidentOwned Businesses. 

OMB Control Number: 2577–0161. 

Type of Request: Extension of 

previously approved collection. 

Form Number: N/A. 

Description of the need for the 

information and proposed use: 

PHAs that entered into contracts with 

resident-owned businesses prior to 

December 26, 2014, must comply with 

the requirements/procedures set forth 

in, 24 CFR 85.36(h), and 24 CFR 

85.36(i). Contracts with resident-owned 

businesses entered into after December 

26, 2014, must comply with 24 CFR part 

963, 2 CFR 200.325, and 2 CFR 200.326 

and other such contract terms that may 

be applicable to the procurement under 

the Department’s regulations. These 

requirements include: 

• Certified copies of any State, 

county, or municipal licenses that may 

be required of the business to engage in 

the type of business activity for which 

it was formed. Where applicable, the 

PHA must obtain a certified copy of its 

corporate charter or other organizational 

document that verifies that the business 

was properly formed in accordance with 

State law; 

• Certification that shows the 

business is owned by residents, 

disclosure documents that indicate all 

owners of the business and each 

owner’s percentage of the business 

along with sufficient evidence sufficient 

that demonstrates to the satisfaction of 

the PHA that the business has the ability 

to perform successfully under the terms 

and conditions of the proposed contract; 

• Certification as to the number of 

contracts awarded, and the dollar 

amount of each contract award received, 

under the alternative procurement 

process; and 

• Contract award documents, proof of 

bonding documents, independent cost 

estimates and comparable price 

analyses. 

Members of affected public: Public 

Housing Agencies, and Applicable 

Resident Entrepreneurs. 

Estimation of the total number of 

hours needed to prepare the information 

collection including number of 

respondents, frequency of response, and 

hours of response: 

Estimated number of respondents: 75. 

The calculation for burden hours is as 

follows: Calculation for number of 

respondents: 75 (estimated number of 

PHAs contracting with resident owned 

businesses) × 24 (number of hours for 

procurement process) = 1,800 total 

hours. The Department estimates that 

out of a total of 3,763 PHAs only 2 

percent or 75 PHAs contract with 

resident owned business. This number 

is less than the previous request due to 

several PHAs choosing to leave the 

program, but the Department anticipates 

there may have been more business or 

contracting opportunities particularly 

during the pandemic.

PHAs × 24 hours = 1,800 hours × $30.95 

= $55,710.
