MTW is a long term demonstration program authorized in 1996 and recently expanded in 2016, which permits select PHAs to implement certain programmatic flexibilities to address local needs. PHAs submit application materials to HUD requesting authorization and describing their plans to implement MTW flexibilities. All PHAs are required to submit annual plans to HUD, however, PHAs with a Moving to Work demonstration designation, (39 at the time of submission of this request) must submit an Annual MTW Plan and Annual MTW Report in lieu of the standard 5-year plan and annual update. In 2013, revisions were made to this 50900 form to streamline the process of Agencies submitting required Annual Plan and Report Data to HUD so that the Department is able to better respond to Congressional and other inquiries regarding outcome measures obtained and promising practices learned throughout the duration of the demonstration. This 2016 revision of the Form makes a variety of minor refinements to improve clarity and usability, based on the experiences of HUD and PHAs with the form over the last 3 years. The form is also being updated also to implement provisions of the Departmentâs affirmatively furthering fair housing (AFFH) rule (24 CFR 5.150-5.180).
This is a reinstatement, with change, of a previously approved collection. Through this reinstatement HUD is adjusting the total burden hours estimate to incorporate 3 additional PHAs that have been added since the last approval of this Form and additional applicants to the program resulting from the 2016 appropriations act. This 2016 reinstatement of the Form also makes a variety of minor refinements to improve clarity and usability, based on the experiences of HUD and PHAs with the Form over the last 3 years. Examples of these minor refinements include: additional entries in the âGeneral Informationâ section to improve clarity, elimination of the requirement to submit tables in multiple formats, layout improvements to sections/tables to improve readability, and text corrections to improve term consistency. The form is also being updated also to implement provisions of the Departmentâs affirmatively furthering fair housing (AFFH) rule (24 CFR 5.150-5.180).
As stated above, all PHAs are required to submit a five (5) year plan and annual plans as required by Section 5A of the 1937 Act, as amended, however, MTW PHAs submit the MTW annual plan and annual report in lieu of the standard annual and 5 year PHA plans. OMB approval for an alternate submission was sought and approved and the current 50900 form expires on December 31, 2011. However, at this time in the demonstration it is necessary to update the form to provide more uniform data collection across agencies. This will assist ingathering the most accurate, comparable data so the Department is able to better respond to Congressional and other inquiries regarding outcome measures obtained and promising practices learned throughout the duration of the demonstration. Through the revised form, respondents will report outcome information to accurately evaluate the effects of MTW policy changes on residents, the agencyâs operations and the local community.
