report must also include a discussion of 

the extent to which target capabilities 

identified in the applicable state 

homeland security plan and other 

applicable plans are unmet, and an 

assessment of resources needed to meet 

the preparedness priorities established 

under PKEMRA Section 646(e), 

including: (i) An estimate of the amount 

of expenditures required to attain the 

preparedness priorities; and (ii) the 

extent to which the use of Federal 

assistance during the preceding fiscal 

year achieved the preparedness 

priorities. To meet this requirement, 

States, Tribes, territories, and urban 

areas first identify capability targets 

through THIRA and then assess against 

these targets in the SPR. Through the 

SPR, these jurisdictions estimate their 

current capabilities, identify and 

describe gaps between current 

capabilities and targets, indicate their 

intended approach for addressing gaps 

in the future, and report on the impact 

of Federal grant dollars in building and 

sustaining capabilities. It is also 

important to note that completing the 

THIRA and SPR are allowable expenses 

under the grant awards.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Eva 

Fontheim, Office of Public and Indian 

Housing, Department of Housing and 

Urban Development, 451 7th Street SW, 

Room 4126, Washington, DC 20410, 

telephone (202) 402–3461 (this is not a

difficulty hearing or speaking may 

access this number via TTY by calling 

the Federal Relay Service at (800) 877– 

8339 (this is a toll-free number) or can 

email: MTWAdvisoryCommittee@

hud.gov. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice of 

this meeting is provided in accordance 

with the Federal Advisory Committee 

Act, 5 U.S.C. App. 10(a)(2). The 

Committee was established on May 2, 

2016, to advise HUD on specific policy 

proposals and methods of research and 

evaluation related to the expansion of 

the MTW demonstration to an 

additional 100 Public Housing 

Authorities (PHAs). See 81 FR 24630. 

The Committee met several times since 

2016 to discuss areas of policy focus for 

study within the MTW expansion. 

Using the advice of the Committee, the 

one hundred Expansion MTW PHAs 

will be added in four to five cohorts. To 

date, 31 PHAs have been selected to 

participate in the MTW Flexibility for 

Smaller PHAs Cohort, all consist of 

high-performing PHAs that administer 

1,000 or fewer Housing Choice 

Vouchers (HCV) and public housing 

units combined. An additional 10 PHAs 

have been selected to participate in the 

Stepped and Tiered Rent Cohort, 

consisting of PHAs with 1,001 or more 

public housing and HCV units. In order 

to ensure adequate sample size in the 

Stepped and Tiered Rent Cohort, the 

selected PHAs were required to have 

1,000 or more existing non-elderly, nondisabled public housing and/or HCV 

households. This cohort will study 

different rent models that may or may 

not be income-based, to include tiered 

rents, and/or stepped-up rents. The 

Landlord Incentives Cohort, application 

deadline is October 15, 2021, will study 

landlord incentives in the housing 

choice voucher program. 

HUD is committed to implementing 

the MTW Expansion in a way that is 

responsive to the economic realities and 

current needs of low-income families; 

therefore, the Work Requirements 

Cohort has been rescinded. For this 

reason, HUD is reconvening the 

Committee to explore alternative 

policies to study through the MTW 

Expansion to ensure that there are 100 

designated MTW PHAs. The minutes of 

all previous meetings are available on 

the HUD website at: https://

www.hud.gov/program_offices/ 

public_indian_housing/programs/ph/ 

mtw/expansion/rac. 

HUD will convene two virtual 

meetings to explore which policies to 

study in future MTW cohorts.
