Public Housing Agency Plans; Option To Extend First Submission 
Due Date for Certain Public Housing Agencies

AGENCY: Office of the Assistant Secretary for Public and Indian 
Housing, HUD.

ACTION: Notice of option to extend first submission date.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: This document provides notice to those public housing agencies 
(PHAs) that must submit their first Annual Plans in December 1999 or 
January 2000, that they have the option to submit their first plans 
between December 1, 1999 and January 31, 2000, or January 15, 2000 and 
February 29, 2000, respectively. HUD will soon be publishing additional 
information and direction to PHAs on their plan submissions. As a 
result, PHAs with December and January submission due dates may 
determine additional time is needed to prepare their first plans.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For further information contact the 
Office of Policy, Program and Legislative Initiatives, Office of Public 
and Indian Housing, Department of Housing and Urban Development, 451 
Seventh Street, SW, Room 4116, Washington, DC 20410; telephone (202) 
708-0730 (this is not a toll-free number). Persons with hearing or 
speech impairments may access that number via TTY by calling the 
Federal Information Relay Service at (800) 877-8339.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On October 21, 1999 (64 FR 56844), HUD 
published its final rule implementing section 511 of the Quality 
Housing and Work Responsibility Act of 1998. Section 511 introduces the 
public housing agency (PHA) plans--a 5-Year Plan and an Annual Plan. 
HUD will soon be publishing additional information and direction to 
PHAs about certain plan components, and the plan submission process. As 
a result, PHAs with December 1999 and January 2000 submission due dates 
may determine additional time is needed to prepare their first plans. 
HUD is therefore providing: (1) PHAs that previously were to submit 
their first 5-Year and Annual Plans on December 1, 1999, with the 
option to submit their first plans between December 1, 1999, and 
January 31, 2000; and (2) PHAs that previously were to submit their 
first 5-Year and Annual Plans on January 15, 2000, with the option to 
submit their first plans between January 15, 2000, and February 29, 
2000.

    Dated: November 19, 1999.
Harold Lucas,
Assistant Secretary for Public and Indian Housing.
