Sec. 968.215  Resident and homebuyer participation.

    A PHA shall establish a Partnership Process, as defined in 
Sec. 968.105, to develop, implement and monitor the CIAP. Before 
submission of the CIAP application, a PHA shall consult with the 
residents, the resident organization, or the resident management 
corporation (see part 964, subpart C of this chapter) (herein referred 
to as the resident) of the development(s) being proposed for 
modernization, regarding its intent to submit an application and to 
solicit resident comments. A PHA shall give residents a reasonable 
opportunity to present their views on the proposed modernization and 
alternatives to it and shall give full and serious consideration to 
resident recommendations. A PHA shall respond in writing to the 
residents, indicating its acceptance or rejection of resident 
recommendations, consistent with HUD requirements and the PHA's own 
determination of efficiency, economy, and need. After HUD approval of 
the modernization program, a PHA shall inform the residents of the 
approved work items and its progress during implementation. Where HUD 
does not approve the modernization program, a PHA shall so inform the 
residents.
