This collection of information centralizes and standardizes HUDÂs review and approval of non-funded, noncompetitive requests of Public Housing Authorities (PHAs) to remove public housing property from their inventories via disposition, demolition, voluntary conversion, required conversion, home ownership, or eminent domain proceedings.
US Code:
42 USC 1437q
Name of Law: U.S.Housing Act of 1937
This burden collection reinstates OMB 2577-0075. This collection was consolidated into 2577-0157 in 2005. However it was determined to properly manage this collection and to make the necessary program change, ICR 2577-0075 should be reinstated. The prior Paperwork Reduction Act Submission (PRA) for 2577-0075 was limited to only demolition and disposition inventory removal actions of public housing property. This burden is adjusted to include voluntary conversion, required conversion, home ownership, and eminent domain inventory removal actions and thus increases the burden hours in order to account for the preparatory time of these additional removal actions. In addition, Form HUD-52860 (and any addendum, if required) reflects the requirements of several newly revised HUD regulations, including 24 CFR 970 and 24 CFR 972. The reported annual burden has changed minimally. The annual burden has decreased for the HUD-52860 from 17 hours to 8 hours due to increased automation in the PIC on-line application and thus resulting in a decrease in preparatory time required to complete this form. The annual burden has also decreased to delete the reporting and recording time, which is not required as part of this collection of information. The annual burden has increased to the extent that additional burden hours have been added to account for the preparatory time required to complete the addendums (which were previously not a part of this collection of information.
