FY 12 Plan - HUD

[Moving-to-Work 2011-2012 Annual Plan]
B. Status Update:
SAHA‟s MTW Activity 4 was approved in the year 2010-2011. Implementation of this
activity began in fiscal year 2010 for HCV. Public Housing is set to begin
implementation on July 1, 2011. The purpose of this activity is to reduce agency cost
and achieve greater effectiveness in federal expenditures. MTW activity 4, Streamline
Methods of Verification for HCV were monitored and tracked in conjunction with SAHA‟s
2010-2011 MTW Plan baselines. The implementation of this activity for HCV
dramatically decreased client traffic in administrative offices throughout the year. Cost of
paper products and departmental postage spending were outlined to observe
differences as a result of this activity. The MTW baseline for fiscal year 2009-2010 was
established to be 13,000 office visits per fiscal year. Projected office visits by June 30,
2011, are expected to be about 7,263 office visits for fiscal year 2010-2011. Cost of
paper products for fiscal year 2009-2010 established a baseline of $16,350.00. For
fiscal year 2010-2011, estimated cost is projected to be $18,972, which is about
$2,622.00 over the anticipated MTW activity benchmark. However, over 5,200
applicants were called off the waitlist during 9/2010, 11/2010, and 03/2011, increasing
usage of paper products. Cost of postage for fiscal year 2009-2010 established a
baseline of $102,000. The projected cost by June 30, 2011, is $98,594.00, or $3,451.00
under the activity baseline, creating a cost savings for the agency.
SAHA is developing a method to monitor public housing‟s outcomes once this activity
is fully implemented.
C. Modifications:
There are no proposed modifications for FY 2011-2012.
D. Evaluators:
SAHA will not be using outside evaluators to monitor or evaluate this activity.
