program; factors that were important to

their decisions to develop affordable

rental housing using the LIHTC; factors

that were considered when deciding

upon the location, scale, resident

composition, and other characteristics

of their properties; their postdevelopment experiences with respect

to the performance of their properties;

and their longer-term plans with respect

to their properties.

HUD is responsible for assessing the

housing needs of low-income

households and administering a variety

of housing assistance programs to meet

those needs. The LIHTC program

operates in conjunction with and in the

context of ongoing HUD programs.

Although HUD is not directly

responsible for the LIHTC program, it is

important to an overall understanding of

the affordable housing delivery system

to know more about this program,

including who develops, owns, and

operates properties benefiting from

LIHTCs, what affects their investment

and development decisions, and their

longer-term plans with respect to their

properties. This information will assist

the Department in better assessing and

meeting the affordable housing needs of

the Nation’s low-income households.

Members of the affected public: A

probability sample of development/

ownership entities that placed at least

one LIHTC property in service between

January 1, 1992 and December 31, 1994

will be surveyed.

Estimation of the total number of

hours needed to prepare the information

collection, including number of

respondents, frequency of response, and

hours of response: Information will be

collected by a one-time telephone

survey with 800 spokespersons

representing developer/owner entities.

Each interview will take an average of

30 minutes to complete, resulting in a

total of approximately 400 hours of

response time for the information

collection.

Status of the proposed information

collection: Pending OMB approval.

Authority: Section 3506 of the Paperwork

Reduction Act of 1995, 44 U.S.C. Chapter 35,

as amended.

Dated: June 19, 1998.

property available for use to assist the

homeless, (2) its intention to declare the

property excess to the agency’s needs, or
