The section adds a new section 291 to title II of the Cranston-Gonzalez National Affordable Housing Act providing that the requirements of section 3 of the Housing and Urban Development Act of 1968, and any implementing regulations or guidance, do not apply to an assisted activity involving rehabilitation, construction, or other development of housing where the recipient is a State recipient or a participating jurisdiction that got less than $3,000,000 in the most recent fiscal year, and the activity assists no more than 50 dwelling units.

What the document actually says

“``(1) the recipient of assistance under this title is-- ``(A) a State recipient pursuant to section 216; or ``(B) a participating jurisdiction that received a total allocation of less than $3,000,000 in the most recent fiscal year pursuant to section 216; and ``(2) the total number of dwelling units assisted as a part of such activity is not more than 50.''.”

That sentence, in plain words

The place taking the money must be a state or a small one. A small one got less than three million dollars last year. The work must cover 50 homes or fewer.

What this is about

The rules set aside here come from a 1968 law. Those rules are not indexed on this site. Where both tests hold, they do not apply.

No action is recorded against this proposal. That is not evidence that none has been taken, and nobody has yet read it against the record. See what the tracker does not yet cover.

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.
