Title: Voluntary Conversion of Developments From Public Housing Stock (FR-4476) 
Abstract: This rule implements a revision to the statute authorizing HUD's public housing and Section 8 housing assistance programs. The revision authorizes Public Housing Agencies (PHAs) to convert a development to tenant-based assistance by removing the development (or a portion of a development) from its public housing inventory and providing for relocation of the residents or provision of tenant-based assistance to them. This action is permitted only when that change would be cost effective, be beneficial to residents of the development and the surrounding area, and not have an adverse impact on the availability of affordable housing. This rule follows publication of a July 23, 1999 proposed rule, and takes into consideration the public comments received on the proposed rule.
