HUD-5837 Instructions
All PHAs who plan to remove the last of its public housing units from their public housing inventory must choose to either closeout
from the public housing program or notify HUD of their intention to develop new public housing units. This form indicates the PHA’s
choice and provides HUD information regarding the PHA’s future plans, in order to provide appropriate oversight and technical
assistance. This form should be submitted to HUD as an attachment to the Inventory Removal Application (HUD-52860) or RAD
Application and may request some information that already exists in the PIH Inventory Management System (IMS/PIC).
A. General PHA Information
Purpose: To provide HUD with information regarding the PHA and its intended unit removal method to facilitate effective
communication.
Instructions: Complete the following questions regarding the PHA, the removal action, and the PHA’s plan to closeout from the
public housing program or develop new public housing units.
B. Public Housing Program Closeout Information
Purpose: To provide HUD with information regarding the PHA’s outstanding assets, debts, and obligations that will require
resolution prior to termination of the Public Housing ACC.
Instructions: PHAs should determine if they own any real property that remains subject to Public Housing requirements and the
ACC. Note that Public Housing Real Property includes any real property that was acquired, maintained, or operated with 1937
Act funds. PHAs must identify legal issues and obligations that could be affected by removal – for further review by HUD. A
removal action may not be used to relieve a PHA of legal liabilities arising from noncompliance with federal statutory or
regulatory activities. Fair housing and civil rights matters may include charges, cause determinations, lawsuits, letters of
findings, outstanding voluntary compliance agreements or consent decrees, and remedial orders or agreements with unfulfilled
requirements. HUD will determine if actions to resolve the items listed above are sufficient to resolve the matter.
C. Future Development Information
Purpose: To provide HUD with information regarding the PHA’s plans to develop new ACC units and to continue operating a
Public Housing program.
Instructions: Complete the following questions regarding the development of new ACC units. PHAs must determine if they are
eligible to develop any new public housing ACC units based on the Quality Housing and Work Responsibility Act of 1998
(QHWRA) imposition of a statutory limit on new construction of Public Housing units (Faircloth limit) in Section 9(g)(3)(A) of
the 1937 Act. Please note that any units converted through RAD will reduce a PHA’s Faircloth Limit. The information included
should reflect the PHA’s proposed plans; however, the information has no effect on the content of the PHA’s development
proposal submission to HUD.
D. Identify any potential issues related to closeout or future development activities.
Purpose: To alert HUD to any known issues or potential issues related to closeout or future development activities, in order to
facilitate appropriate technical assistance.
Instructions: Provide a brief narrative that describes any known issues or potential issues related to closeout activities. For
example, a PHA may wish to note that they are aware of existing long-term use restrictions on a prior Section 18
demolition/disposition approval and anticipate the need for an amendment to the approval or a revised use restriction. If the
PHA is not aware of any issues or potential issues, the PHA may leave this section blank.
