Places below the median improvement rate lose 10 percent of their allocation
The document says “shall”Who acts: Secretary of Housing and Urban DevelopmentHow: statuteSec. 213 in the PDF
What the document says
“the Secretary shall decrease the amount that would otherwise be allocated to the eligible recipient under section 106 for that fiscal year by 10 percent.”
The section requires the Secretary to cut a recipient's section 106 allocation by 10 percent for a fiscal year where its housing growth improvement rate is below the median for all eligible recipients other than high-growth outliers.
What the document actually says
“the Secretary shall decrease the amount that would otherwise be allocated to the eligible recipient under section 106 for that fiscal year by 10 percent.”
That sentence, in plain words
The place gets less money that year. The cut is 10 percent of what it would have had.
What this is about
The money taken here funds the bonus for others. So the whole pot stays the same size. Only the split changes.

How to Read This Page
The quotation is the document's own words, exactly as printed, and we check the page
number against the Act itself before publishing. The paragraph underneath is our summary,
not the document's words. So is the plain English version, which is why it sits beside the
quotation rather than replacing it.
