Title: Project Design and Cost Standards (FR-5097)
Abstract: This rule would revise HUD's regulations that govern the project design and cost standards for HUD's supportive housing for the elderly and persons with disabilities programs. Regulations that establish HUD's housing for the elderly program (section 202 program) and HUD's supportive housing for persons with disabilities program (section 811 program) are set forth at 24 CFR part 891. Under part 891, section 202 and section 811 project sponsors are prohibited from using HUD funds for certain project amenities including, but not limited to swimming pools, private balconies, dishwashers, and washers and dryers. This rule would remove certain items from the list of restricted amenities. Specifically, this rule would allow project sponsors to use HUD funds for dishwashers in individual supportive housing units for the elderly and independent living projects for persons with disabilities. In addition, a clarification would be made for section 811 group homes to allow for the inclusion of dishwashers and washers and dryers.
