Introduction to the New Capital Fund Rule
The Public Housing Capital Fund Program Final Rule was published in the Federal Register on October 24, 2013 (Docket No. 5236-F-02) and will be effective on November 25, 2013. This new regulation combines the Capital Fund requirements for rehabilitation and development into a single regulation. It also updates and streamlines many of the Capital Fund and development requirements, incorporates recent energy requirements, and directs more funding towards rehabilitation. This rule along with a new Capital Fund guidebook, which is under development and expected to be available in the spring, will ensure that the Capital Fund Program is more efficiently and uniformly implemented by PHAs and managed more effectively by the HUD Field Offices.
This final rule implements section 9 of the United States Housing Act of 1937 (the 1937 Act), which created the Capital Fund program as part of the Quality Housing and Work Responsibility Act of 1998 (QHWRA) (Title V, Pub. L. 105-276, approved October 21, 1998). Prior to the publication of this rule, PHAs were required to look at three different regulations and two different statutes to determine the program requirements. This final rule combines and streamlines the former legacy public housing capital programs, including the Comprehensive Grant Program (CGP), the Comprehensive Improvement Assistance Program (CIAP), and the Public Housing Development Program (which encompasses mixed-finance development), into the Capital Fund Program. Capital Fund was operating on interim guidance from HUD notices and an outdated 1996 guidebook for the CGP program, issued pre-QHWRA. This regulation will provide PHAs with clear a description of eligible activities, the planning process and the requirements for rehabilitation and development activities. Title

Part CFR §905.800 Introduction to Procurement for Public Housing Agencies
This learning series provides an overview of the federal procurement process as described in 24 CFR Part 85.36. PHAs are required to comply with 24 CFR Part 85 when procuring goods and services with Public Housing program funds, i.e. Capital Funds, HOPE VI, Choice Neighborhoods. While we have attempted to cover a range a topics and issues, this series is not comprehensive of the applicable procurement requirements and should be considered as one of several resources to assist you in complying with relevant procurement requirements.
