Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35, as amended).
This Notice is soliciting comments from members of the public and
affected agencies concerning the proposed collection of information to:
(1) evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is
necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency,
including whether the information will have practical utility; (2)
evaluate the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information; (3) enhance the quality, utility,
and clarity of the information to be collected; and (4) minimize the
burden of the collection of information on those who are to respond,
including through the use of appropriate automated collection
techniques or other forms of information technology; e.g., permitting
electronic submission of responses.
This Notice also lists the following information:
Title of Proposal: Public Housing Designated for Occupancy by
Disabled, Elderly, or Mixed.
OMB Number: 2577-0192.
Description of the need for the information and proposed use: The
information collection burden associated with designated housing is
required by statute. Section 10 of the Housing Opportunity and
Extension Act of 1996 modified Section 7 of the U.S. Housing Act of
1937 to require Public Housing Agencies (PHAs) to submit to HUD a plan
for designation before they designate projects for elderly families
only, disabled families only, or elderly and disabled families. In this
plan, PHAs must document why the designation is needed and what
additional housing resources will be available to the non-designated
group.
Form Number: None.
Members of affected public: Public Housing Agencies, State or Local
Governments.
Estimation of the total number of hours needed to prepare the
information collection including number of respondents, frequency of
response, and hours of response: 176 respondents per year, one response
per respondent, 21 hours average per response, 3,358 total reporting
burden hours per year.
Status of the proposed information collection: Revision.
Authority: Section 3506 of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995,
44 U.S.C. Chapter 35, amended.
Dated: December 17, 1996.
Michael B. Janis,
General Deputy, Assistant Secretary for Public and Indian Housing.
