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.
    Respondents: Individuals or households, State, Local or Tribal 
Government.
    Frequency of Submission: Other for duration of PHA operations.
