24 CFR Ch. II (4–1–19 Edition)

concurrence. If the MFD does not concur, the DEC Compliance Plan will be
submitted to the Deputy Assistant Secretary for Housing and the Deputy Director of the DEC for review and concurrence. If the DEC Compliance Plan
remains unapproved, a final decision on
the plan will be made by HUD’s Deputy
Secretary in consultation with the
General Counsel, the Assistant Secretary for Housing, and the Director of
the DEC.
(iii) Following submission of the DEC
Compliance Plan to the owner, the
owner will be provided a period of 30
calendar days to review and accept the
DEC Compliance Plan. If the owner
agrees to comply with the DEC Compliance Plan, the plan will be forwarded
to the appropriate Multifamily Office
for implementation and monitoring of
completion of the plan’s requirements.
(2) Counter compliance plan proposal by
owner. The owner may submit an acceptable counter proposal to the DEC
Compliance Plan. An owner’s counter
proposal to a DEC Compliance Plan
must be submitted no later than the
30th day following submission of the
DEC Compliance Plan to the owner.
The DEC, in coordination with the
MFD, may enter into discussions with
the owner to achieve agreement to a
revised DEC Compliance Plan. If the
owner and the DEC agree on a revised
DEC Compliance Plan, the revised plan
will be forwarded to the appropriate
Multifamily Office for implementation
and monitoring of completion of the
plan’s requirements.
(3) Non-cooperation and Non-compliance by owner. If at the conclusion of
the 30th calendar day following submission of the DEC Compliance Plan to
the owner, the DEC receives no response from the owner, or the owner
refuses to accept the DEC Compliance
Plan, or to present a counter compliance plan proposal, or if the owner accepts the DEC Compliance Plan or revised DEC Compliance Plan, but refuses to take the actions required of
the owner in the plan, the DEC may
take appropriate enforcement action.
(4) No limitation on existing enforcement authority. The administrative
process provided in this section does
not prohibit the Office of Housing, the
DEC, or HUD generally, to take what-

ever action may be necessary when
necessary (notwithstanding the commencement of this process), as authorized under existing statutes, regulations, contracts or other documents, to
protect HUD’s financial interests in
multifamily properties and to protect
the residents of these properties.
(j) Limitations on material alteration of
physical inspection software. HUD will
not materially alter the physical inspection requirements in a manner
which would materially increase the
cost of performing the inspection.

Subpart R [Reserved]
Subpart S—Minimum Property
Standards
§ 200.925 Applicability of minimum
property standards.
All housing constructed under HUD
mortgage insurance and low-rent public housing programs shall meet or exceed HUD Minimum Property Standards, except that this requirement
shall be applicable to manufactured
homes eligible for insurance pursuant
to § 203.43f of this chapter only to the
extent provided therein. The Minimum
Property Standards may be waived to
the same extent as the other regulatory requirements for eligibility for
insurance under the specific mortgage
insurance program involved.

§ 200.925a Multifamily and care-type
minimum property standards.
(a) Construction standards. Multifamily or care-type properties shall
comply with the minimum property
standards contained in the handbook
identified in § 200.929(b)(2). In addition,
each such property shall, for the Department’s purposes, comply with:
(1) The applicable State of local
building code, if the property is located
within a jurisdiction which has a building code accepted by the Secretary
under § 200.925a(d); or

by the HUD Field Office serving the jurisdiction in which the property is to
be located, if the property is located in
a jurisdiction which has a building
code partially accepted by the Secretary; or
(3) The appropriate codes, as identified in § 200.925c(c), if the property is
not located within a jurisdiction which
has a building code accepted by the
Secretary.
(b) Conflicting standards. The minimum property standards contained in
the
handbook
identified
in
§ 200.929(b)(2) do not preempt state or
local standards, nor do they alter or affect a builder’s obligation to comply
with any state or local requirements.
However, a property shall be eligible
for benefits only if it complies with all
applicable minimum property standards, including referenced standards.
(c) Standard for evaluating local building codes. The Secretary shall compare
the portions of a local or State building code applicable to residential or institutional occupancy, as appropriate,
submitted under § 200.925a(d) to the list
of construction related areas contained
in § 200.925b.
(1) A State or local code will be accepted if it regulates each area on the
list.
(2) A State or local building code will
be partially accepted if it regulates
most of the areas on the list. However,
no code may be partially accepted if it
fails to regulate the subarea for seismic design (see § 200.925b(c)(5)), or if it
fails to regulate subareas in more than
one of the following major areas listed
in § 200.925b: fire safety, light and ventilation, structural loads and seismic
design, foundation systems, materials
standards, construction components,
glass, mechanical, plumbing, electrical, and elevators.
(3) For purposes of this paragraph, a
state or local code regulates an area if
it establishes a standard concerning
that area. However, for earthquake
loads (see § 200.925b(c)(5)), ASCE 7–88 is
mandatory.
(d) Review process and acceptance—(1)
Jurisdictions without previously accepted
building codes. The following submission requirements apply to developers
and other interested parties in jurisdictions without building codes, jurisdic-

§ 200.925a

tions with building codes which have
never been submitted for acceptance,
and jurisdictions with building codes
which have been submitted for acceptance and neither accepted nor partially
accepted by the Secretary.
(i) Developers or other interested
parties must comply with one of the
following by the time of application for
insurance or other benefits:
(A) The developer or other interested
party may choose to comply with the
appropriate codes as identified in
§ 200.925c. If the developer or other interested party so chooses, then the
multifamily or care-type property
shall be constructed in accordance with
one of the model codes designated in
paragraph (c)(1), (2) or (3) of § 200.925c
and with any other code or codes identified in the same paragraph. In such
instances, the developer or other interested party shall notify the Department of the code or group of codes with
which it intends to comply by the time
of application for insurance or other
benefits; or
(B) The developer or other interested
party may choose to comply with the
State or local building code, if such
code is acceptable to the Secretary. To
obtain the Secretary’s acceptance, the
developer or other interested party
shall submit the material specified in
paragraph (d)(1)(ii) of this section to
the HUD Field Office serving the jurisdiction in which the property is to be
constructed. Such material may be
submitted at any time; provided, however, that it must be submitted no
later than the time of application for
mortgage insurance or other benefits.
(ii) If, under paragraph (d)(1)(i)(B) of
this section, the developer or other interested party chooses to comply with
the State or local building code as prescribed in paragraph (a)(1) of this section, it shall submit the following material to the HUD field Office serving
the jurisdiction in which the property
is to be constructed:
(A) A copy of the jurisdiction’s building code, including all applicable service codes, appendices and referenced
standards; and
(B) A copy of the statute, ordinance,
regulation, or order establishing the

code, if such statute, ordinance, regulation or order is not contained in the
building code itself.
However, the developer or other interested party need not submit any document already on file in the Field Office.
(2) Jurisdictions with previously accepted or partially accepted building codes.
The following submission requirements
apply to developers and other interested parties in any jurisdiction with a
building code which has been accepted
or partially accepted by the Secretary:
(i) At the time of application for
mortgage insurance or other benefits,
the developer or other interested party
shall submit to the HUD Field Office
serving the jurisdiction in which the
property is to be constructed.
(A) A certificate stating that, since
its acceptance by the Secretary, the jurisdiction’s building code has not been
changed; or
(B)(1) A copy of all changes to the jurisdiction’s building code, including all
applicable service codes and appendices, which have been made since the
date of the code’s acceptance by the
Secretary. However, the developer or
other interested party need not submit
any part already in the possession of
the Field Office; and
(2) A copy of the statute, ordinance
regulation, or order making such
changes in the code.
(3) Notification of decision. The Secretary shall review the material submitted under paragraphs (d) (1)(ii) and
(2)(i). Following that review, the Secretary shall issue a written notice (except in the case of a previously accepted code which hasn’t been changed) to
the submitting party stating whether
the State or local building code has
been accepted, partially accepted, or
whether the Secretary’s previous acceptance or partial acceptance has
been continued; the basis for the Secretary’s decision; and a notification of
the submitting party’s right to present
its views concerning the denial of acceptance if the code is neither accepted
nor partially accepted. The Secretary
may, in his discretion, permit either an
oral or written presentation of views.
(i) If a developer or other interested
party is notified that a State or local
building code has not been accepted,

then the multifamily or care-type
properties eligible for HUD benefits in
that jurisdiction shall be constructed
in accordance with the appropriate
codes indicated in § 200.925c(c). In such
instances, the developer or other interested party shall notify the HUD Field
Office of the code or codes with which
it chooses to comply, in accordance
with § 200.925a(d)(1)(i)(A).
(ii) If a developer or other interested
party is notified that a State or local
building code has been partially accepted, then the multifamily or caretype properties eligible for HUD benefits in that jurisdiction shall be constructed in accordance with the applicable State or local building code, plus
those additional requirements identified in the written notice issued by the
Secretary under § 200.925a(d)(3). The
written notice shall identify, in accordance with appendix J of the Handbook
identified in § 200.929(b)(2), those portions of the codes listed at § 200.925c(a)
with which the property must comply.
(iii) Each Regional Office will maintain a current list of jurisdictions with
accepted building codes and a current
list of jurisdictions with partially accepted building codes. The lists will
state the most recent date of each
code’s acceptance or partial acceptance
and will be available to any interested
party upon request. In addition, the
list of jurisdictions whose codes have
been partially accepted shall identify
those portions of the codes listed at
§ 200.925c(a) with which the property
must comply.

(ii) Approved for insurance or other
benefits based upon participation in an
insured warranty program; or
(iii) Insured as new construction
based upon a Certificate of Reasonable
Value issued by the Department of Veterans Affairs.
(b) Conflicting standards. The requirements contained in § 200.926d do not
preempt local or State standards, nor
do they alter or affect a builder’s obligation to comply with any local or
State requirements. However, a property shall be eligible for benefits only
if it complies with the requirements of
this subpart, including any referenced
standards. When any of the requirements identified in § 200.926c are in conflict with a partially accepted local or
state code, the conflict will be resolved
by the HUD Field Office servicing the
jurisdiction in which the property is to
be located.
(c) Standard for evaluating local or
state building codes. The Secretary shall
compare a local building code submitted under paragraph (d) of this section or a State code to the list of construction related areas contained in
§ 200.926a.
(1) A local or State code will be accepted if it regulates each area and
subarea on the list.
(2) A State or local building code will
be partially accepted if it regulates
most of the areas on the list. However,
no code may be partially accepted if it
fails to regulate the subarea for seismic design (see § 200.926a(c)(5)), or if it
fails to regulate subareas in more than
one of the following major areas listed
in § 200.926a: fire safety, light and ventilation, structural loads and seismic
design, foundation systems, materials
standards, construction components,
glass, mechanical, plumbing, and electrical.
(3) For purposes of this paragraph, a
local or State code regulates an area or
subarea if it establishes a standard
concerning that area or subarea. However,
for
earthquake
loads
(see
§ 200.926a(c)(5)), ASCE 7–88 is mandatory.
(d) Code selection. Any materials required to be submitted under this section must be submitted by the time the
lender or other interested party applies

§ 200.926

for mortgage insurance or other benefits.
(1) Jurisdictions without previously accepted building codes. The following submission requirements apply to lenders
and other interested parties in jurisdictions without building codes, jurisdictions with building codes which have
never been submitted for acceptance,
and jurisdictions with building codes
which previously have been submitted
for acceptance and have not been accepted or partially accepted by the
Secretary.

of the property. The hazards include
toxic chemicals, radioactive materials,
other pollution, hazardous activities,
potential damage from soil or other
differential ground movements, ground
water, inadequate surface drainage,
flood, erosion, or other hazards located
on or off site. The site must meet the
standards set forth in 24 CFR part 51,
and HUD Handbook 4910.1, section 606
for termite and decay protection.
(ii) When special conditions exist or
arise during construction which were
unforeseen and which necessitate precautionary or hazard mitigation measures, the HUD Field Office shall require
corrective work to mitigate potential
adverse effects from the special conditions as necessary. Special conditions
include rock formations, unstable soils
or slopes, high ground water levels,
springs, or other conditions which may
adversely affect a property. It shall be
the builder’s responsibility to ensure

proper design, construction and satisfactory performance where these conditions are present.
(4) Access. (i) Each property shall be
provided with vehicular or pedestrian
access by a public or private street.

an arrangement of all site facilities
necessary to create a safe, functional,
healthful, durable and energy efficient
living environment.
(ii) With the exception of paragraph
(c)(4) of this section, these site design
standards apply only in communities
that have not adopted criteria for site
development applicable to one and two
family dwellings.
(iii) Single family detached houses
situated on individual lots located on
existing streets with utilities need not
comply with the requirements of paragraphs (c)(2) and (c)(3) of this section.
(2) Streets. (i) Existing or proposed
streets on the site shall connect to private or public streets and shall provide
all-weather access to all buildings for
essential and emergency use, including
access needed for deliveries, service,
maintenance and fire equipment.
(ii) Streets shall be designed for dedication for public use and maintenance
or, when approved by the HUD Field
Office, may be retained as private
streets where protected by permanent
easements.
(3) Dedication. Utilities shall be located to permit dedication to the local
government or appropriate public body.
(4) Drainage and flood hazard exposure—(i) Residential structures with basements located in FEMA-designated areas
of special flood hazard. The elevation of
the lowest floor in structures with
basements shall be at or above the base

the lowest floor in structures without
basements shall be at or above the
FEMA-designated base flood elevation
(100-year flood level).
(iii) Residential structures located in
FEMA-designated ‘‘coastal high hazard
areas’’. (A) Basements or any permanent enclosure of space below the lowest floor of a structure are prohibited.
(B) Where FEMA has determined the
base flood level without establishing
stillwater elevations, the bottom of the
lowest structural member of the lowest
floor (excluding pilings and columns)
and its horizontal supports shall be at
or above the base flood level.
(iv)(A) In all cases in which a Direct
Endorsement (DE) mortgagee or a
Lender Insurance (LI) mortgagee seek
to insure a mortgage on a newly constructed one-to four-family dwelling
(including a newly erected manufactured home) that was processed by the
DE or LI mortgagee, the DE or LI
mortgagee must determine whether the
property improvements (dwelling and
related structures/equipment essential
to the value of the property and subject to flood damage) are located in a
100-year floodplain, as designated on
maps of the Federal Emergency Management Agency. If so, the DE mortgagee, before submitting the application for insurance to HUD, or the LI
mortgagee, before submitting all the
required data regarding the mortgage
to HUD, must obtain:
(1) A final Letter of Map Amendment
(LOMA);
(2) A final Letter of Map Revision
(LOMR); or

§ 200.926d

(3) A signed Elevation Certificate
documenting that the lowest floor (including basement) of the property improvements is built at or above the 100year flood elevation in compliance
with National Flood Insurance program criteria 44 CFR 60.3 through 60.6.
(B) Under the DE program, these
mortgages are not eligible for insurance unless the DE mortgagee submits
the LOMA, LOMR, or Elevation Certificate to HUD with the mortgagee’s request for endorsement.
(v) Streets. Streets must be usable
during runoff equivalent to a 10-year
return frequency. Where drainage outfall is inadequate to prevent runoff
equivalent to a 10-year return frequency from ponding over 6 inches
deep, streets must be made passable for
commonly used emergency vehicles
during runoff equivalent to a 25-year
return frequency, except where an alternative access street not subject to
such ponding is available.
(vi) Crawl spaces. Crawl spaces must
not pond water or be subject to prolonged dampness.
(d) Special construction and product acceptance—(1) Structural features of factory produced (modular or panelized)
housing or components.
(i) For factory fabricated systems or

retest if requested. If a retest is not requested, validation shall be withdrawn.
If the manufacturer requests a retest,
the administrator shall select new
samples and submit them to the same
or another laboratory at the manufac-

turer’s expense, for retest of only the
test requirement(s) in which the failure(s) occurred. If the specified number
of specimens pass the retest, the product can continue to be validated and
listed. If the designated number of
specimens described in the UM Bulletin
fail, the administrator shall decertify
the product. The manufacturer may request that a new selection be made of
the product after corredction or modifications and be subjected to the initial
acceptance testing procedure or to a
program of retesting established by the

claim of noncompliance. Submission
shall be made to the administrator
that validated the manufacturer’s
product. The administrator shall notify
the manufacturer that its product has
been challenged and shall make arrangements to obtain test samples of
the challenged product. An estimate of
the cost of the special sample selection
and testing shall be made to the complainant. The complainant shall pay
the estimated cost of the investigation
in advance of any testing of the challenged product, unless HUD believes
the complaint to be in the public’s interest. HUD may conduct its own investigation when deemed necessary
based upon a complaint or a product
failure. The administrator shall submit
the sample of the challenged product to
an approved laboratory of the administrator’s choice with the request to test
compliance of only the challenged requirement(s). If the samples tested
prove that the product failed to meet
the standard, the product shall be decertified immediately. The manufacturer whose product is decertified shall
reimburse the administrator for all
