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 Department’s 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 “General
Information” 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 Department’s
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 agency’s operations and the
local community.
