D. PROJECT-BASED VOUCHER ASSISTANCE (24.CFR 983.1) Purpose The PHA provides project-based vouchers (PBV) to expand housing opportunities for low to moderate income families by promoting the development and rehabilitation of low-income housing throughout Cuyahoga County. The PBV Program attaches rental assistance to housing units that are/will be occupied by households eligible for assistance through the Housing Choice Voucher Program (this differs from tenant-based vouchers in which the assistance is attached to the household and can be taken with the household when they move as long as they remain in good standing). HAP contracts for PBV are for multiple units, which must meet HQS and for which rent determinations must be completed. The purpose of the project-based voucher program is to encourage property owners to construct new standard housing (New Construction), or to upgrade substandard rental housing stock (Substantial Rehabilitation) and make it available to lower income families in the community. The implementing HUD rules for the project-based voucher program are established in 24 CFR Part 983. Selection of PBV Owners Units awarded a project-based voucher assistance contract will be selected by a competitive Request for Proposals (RFP), initiated by the PHA in compliance with PHA’s Purchasing Policies and Procedures. PHA will publicly advertise the RFP in a local newspaper of general circulation. The RFP will identify the number of project-based vouchers being made available, all site selection criteria and deadlines for receipt of proposals. Selection Criteria Proposals for project-based voucher assistance may be requested for new or existing structures or structures that will undergo rehabilitation as specified in the RFP. The type of units sought for project-based voucher assistance may have special conditions that are created to achieve a desired housing outcome for the type of families targeted to receive housing assistance and/or to create affordable housing opportunities in specific geographic areas meeting site selection criteria. Site selection criteria will be specified in the RFP in order to inform prospective bidders of the methodology used to evaluate the proposals. All units awarded project-based voucher assistance must comply with 24 CFR Part 983 regarding eligible housing. No more than 25 percent of the units in a projects may receive project-based voucher assistance. Units in projects consisting of single family buildings do not count against the 25 percent cap, nor do “excepted units” in a multifamily project. “Excepted units” are included under the PBV contract and identified as such. “Excepted units” are units in a multifamily project that are specifically made available for “qualifying families.” Copyright 2000 by Nan McKay & Associates To be printed only with permission of Nan McKay & Associates Unlimited copies may be made for internal use Approved by CMHA Board of Commissioners October 3, 2012 159 | P a g e
“Qualifying families” means elderly or disabled families or families receiving supportive services, where at least one family member is receiving at least one qualifying supportive service. These supportive services may include, but are not necessarily limited to: After school programs Youth leadership development programs Training and job readiness programs GED preparation and literacy Case management Personal finance and household budget counseling Day care services to enable parents to work or attend school Site Selection Standards Project-based voucher assistance at a selected site will be consistent with the goal of deconcentrating poverty and expanding housing and economic opportunities consistent with 24CFR Part 983. The site will be suitable for facilitating and furthering compliance with all Civil Rights and Section 504 regulations. The site will also meet HQS site standards. Award of Project-based Voucher Assistance Contracts The PHA shall give prompt written notice of such selection to the party that submitted the proposal and prompt public notice of such selection. HAP Contract Amendments At the discretion of the PHA and provided that the 25 percent cap and 20 percent of authorized budget authority are not exceeded, a HAP contract may be amended during the three-year period immediately following the execution date of the HAP contract to add additional PBV contract units in the same project and/or substitute a different unit with the same number of bedrooms in the same project for a previously covered contract unit. The amendment is subject to all PBV requirements, including compliance with HQS and determination of rent reasonableness, except that a new PBV RFP is not required. The anniversary and expiration dates of the HAP contract for the additional units must be the same as the anniversary and expiration dates of the HAP contract term for the PBV units originally placed under HAP contract. Even if contract units are placed under the HAP contract in stages commencing on different dates, there is a single annual anniversary for all contract units under the HAP contract. New Construction and/or Rehabilitated Units If the PHA chooses to select a project for rental assistance through the PBV program that includes newly constructed or rehabilitated housing, the PHA will comply with Federal regulations included in 24 CFR 983 Subpart D, Requirements for Rehabilitated and Newly Constructed Units.
