Description of the need for the information and proposed use: The
Statue requires HUD to ensure the low-income character of public
housing projects and to assure that sound management practices will be
followed in the operation of the project. Public Housing Agencies
(PHAs) enter into an Annual Contribution Contract (ACC) with HUD to
assist low-income tenants. HUD regulations, Part 960, provide policies
and procedures for PHAs to administer the low-income public housing
program for admission and occupancy. PHAs must develop and keep on file
the admission and occupancy policies including the plan for eligibility
of police officers, which is approved by HUD. PHA compliance will
support the stature; HUD can ensure that the low-income character of
the project and that sound management practices will be followed.

Members of affected public: Individual or households, State, Local
or Tribal Government.
