This [expiration or termination] may impactthe form of assistance you currently receive, as summarized below. Your comments on thesepotential changes will be welcomed and considered. Details on how to provide comments and toobtain additional information are provided at the end of this letter.Under the Department of Housing and Urban Development’s Rental AssistanceDemonstration, I/we, the owner(s) of the property, are requesting authority to enter into aProject-Based Voucher (PBV) contract at this property to provide rental assistance to all unitsoccupied by households that would otherwise receive Tenant Protection Vouchers (TPVs). ThePBV assistance would be administered through a contract between the owner and a PublicHousing Agency (PHA). The PBV contract would provide project-based assistance to theproperty. Households that choose to move one year or more after the PBV contract is put in placewould receive a Housing Choice Voucher, or other comparable tenant-based assistance, ifavailable, to use to seek housing elsewhere. Households will have the right to remain in theirunits whether or not the conversion to PBV occurs. No households will be displaced or made torelocate as part of the conversion, nor will they be subject to a rent increase as a result of theconversion.The PBV contract would provide assistance to this property for a 15-year period, withrenewal options. [Indicate if the Owner is planning to use the PBV contract to obtain financing tomake project repairs/upgrades, if residents are expected to be relocated and the expected lengthof the relocation, and specify that all relocation costs will be the responsibility of the owner.]The [expiration or termination] of the [Rent Supp or RAP] contract at this property,and our intent to provide Project-Based Voucher assistance rather than tenant-based assistance,may impact your household’s housing options. However, your household will not experience anincrease in rent due to the proposed conversion of assistance to PBV assistance, nor willresidents be displaced from the property.<strong>PIH</strong>-<strong>2012</strong>-<strong>32</strong> (HA) Rental Assistance Demonstration – Final Implementation 143
