Description of the need for the 

information and proposed use: Public 

Housing Agencies (PHA) will prepare an 

application for funding which specifies 

the number of units requested, as well 

as the PHA’s objectives and plans for 

administering the HCV program. The 

application is reviewed by HUD 

Headquarters and HUD Field Offices 

and ranked according to the PHA’s 

administrative capability, the need for 

housing assistance, and other factors 

specified in a notice of funding 

availability. The PHAs must establish a 

utility allowance schedule for all 

utilities and other services. Units must 

be inspected using HUD-prescribed 

forms to determine if the units meet the 

housing quality standards (HQS) of the 

HCV program. After the family is issued 

a HCV to search for a unit, the family 

must complete and submit to the PHA 

a Request for Tenancy Approval when 

it finds a unit which is suitable for its 

needs. Initial PHAs will use a 

standardized form to submit portability 

information to the receiving PHA who 

will also use the form for monthly 

portability billing. PHAs and owners 

will enter into HAP Contracts each 

providing information on rents, 

payments, certifications, notifications, 

and owner agreement in a form 

acceptable to the PHA. A tenancy 

addendum is included in the HAP 

contract as well as incorporated in the 

lease between the owner and the family. 

Families that participate in the 

Homeownership option will execute a 

statement regarding their 

responsibilities and execute contracts of 

sale including an additional contract of 

sale for new construction units. PHAs 

participating in the project-based 

voucher (PBV) program will enter into 

Agreements with developing owners, 

HAP contracts with the existing and 

New Construction/Rehabilitation 

owners, Statement of Family 

Responsibility with the family and a 

lease addendum will be provided for 

execution between the family and the 

owner. 

Respondents (i.e. affected public): 

State and Local Governments, 

businesses or other non-profits. 

Estimated Number of Respondents:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In 

accordance with 24 CFR part 581 and 

section 501 of the Stewart B. McKinney 

Homeless Assistance Act (42 U.S.C. 

11411), as amended, HUD is publishing 

this Notice to identify Federal buildings 

and other real property that HUD has 

reviewed for suitability for use to assist 

the homeless. The properties were 

reviewed using information provided to 

HUD by Federal landholding agencies 

regarding unutilized and underutilized 

buildings and real property controlled 

by such agencies or by GSA regarding 

its inventory of excess or surplus 

Federal property. This Notice is also 

published in order to comply with the 

December 12, 1988 Court Order in 

National Coalition for the Homeless v. 

Veterans Administration, No. 88–2503– 

OG (D.D.C.). 

Properties reviewed are listed in this 

Notice according to the following 

categories: Suitable/available, suitable/

unavailable, and suitable/to be excess, 

and unsuitable. The properties listed in 

the three suitable categories have been 

reviewed by the landholding agencies, 

and each agency has transmitted to 

HUD: (1) Its intention to make the 

property available for use to assist the 

homeless, (2) its intention to declare the 

property excess to the agency’s needs, or 

(3) a statement of the reasons that the 

property cannot be declared excess or 

made available for use as facilities to 

assist the homeless. 

Properties listed as suitable/available 

will be available exclusively for 

homeless use for a period of 60 days 

from the date of this Notice. Where 

property is described as for ‘‘off-site use 

only’’ recipients of the property will be 

required to relocate the building to their 

own site at their own expense. 

Homeless assistance providers 

interested in any such property should 

send a written expression of interest to 

HHS, addressed to Theresa Ritta, Ms. 

Theresa M. Ritta, Chief Real Property 

Branch, the Department of Health and 

Human Services, Room 5B–17, 

Parklawn Building, 5600 Fishers Lane, 

Rockville, MD 20857, (301) 443–6672 

(This is not a toll-free number.) HHS 

will mail to the interested provider an 

application packet, which will include 

instructions for completing the 

application. In order to maximize the 

opportunity to utilize a suitable 

property, providers should submit their 

written expressions of interest as soon 

as possible. For complete details 

concerning the processing of 

applications, the reader is encouraged to 

refer to the interim rule governing this 

program, 24 CFR part 581. 

For properties listed as suitable/to be 

excess, that property may, if 

subsequently accepted as excess by 

GSA, be made available for use by the 

homeless in accordance with applicable 

law, subject to screening for other 

Federal use. At the appropriate time, 

HUD will publish the property in a 

Notice showing it as either suitable/

available or suitable/unavailable. 

For properties listed as suitable/

unavailable, the landholding agency has 

decided that the property cannot be 

declared excess or made available for 

use to assist the homeless, and the 

property will not be available. 

Properties listed as unsuitable will 

not be made available for any other 

purpose for 20 days from the date of this 

Notice. Homeless assistance providers 

interested in a review by HUD of the 

determination of unsuitability should 

call the toll free information line at 1– 

800–927–7588 for detailed instructions 

or write a letter to Ann Marie Oliva at 

the address listed at the beginning of 

this Notice. Included in the request for 

review should be the property address 

(including zip code), the date of 

publication in the Federal Register, the 

landholding agency, and the property 

number.
