                 TITLE 24--HOUSING AND URBAN DEVELOPMENT

               DEPARTMENT OF HOUSING AND URBAN DEVELOPMENT

 

PART 984_SECTION 8 AND PUBLIC HOUSING FAMILY SELF-SUFFICIENCY PROGRAM

--Table of Contents

 

                       Subpart C_Program Operation

 

Sec.  984.301  Program implementation.





    (a) Program implementation deadline--(1) Voluntary program. There is 

no deadline for implementation of a voluntary program. A voluntary 

program, however, may not be implemented before the requirements of 

Sec.  984.201 have been satisfied.

    (2) Mandatory program--(i) Program start-up. Except as provided in 

paragraph (a)(3) of this section, operation of a local FSS program must 

begin within 12 months of the earlier of notification to the PHA of 

HUD's approval of the incentive award units or of other funding that 

establishes the obligation to operate an FSS program. Operation means 

that activities such as outreach, participant selection, and enrollment 

have begun. Full delivery of the supportive services to be provided to 

the total number of families required to be served under the program 

need not occur within 12 months, but must occur by the deadline set 

forth in paragraph (a)(2) of this section.

    (ii) Full enrollment and delivery of service. Except as provided in 

paragraph (a)(3) of this section, the PHA must have completed enrollment 

of the total number of families required to be served under the FSS 

program (based on the minimum program size), and must have begun 

delivery of the supportive services within two years from the date of 

notification of approval of the application for new public housing units 

for a public housing FSS program or for new rental certificates or 

rental vouchers for a Section 8 FSS program.

    (iii) Extension of program deadlines for good cause. HUD may extend 

the deadline set forth in either paragraph (a)(1) or paragraph (a)(2) of 

this section if the PHA requests an extension, and HUD determines that, 

despite best efforts on the part of the PHA, the development of new 

public housing units will not occur within the deadlines set forth in 

this paragraph (a), the commitment by public or private resources to 

deliver supportive services has been withdrawn, the delivery of such 

services has been delayed, or other local circumstances warrant an 

extension of the deadlines set forth in this paragraph (a).

    (b) Program administration. a PHA may employ appropriate staff, 

including a service coordinator or program coordinator to administer its 

FSS program, and may contract with an appropriate organization to 

establish and administer the FSS program, including the FSS account, as 

provided by Sec.  984.305.
