SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This notice informs the public that HUD is
seeking approval from OMB for the information collection described in
Section A.
The Federal Register notice that solicited public comment on the
information collection for a period of 60 days was published on July

A. Overview of Information Collection
Title of Information Collection: Study of Post-Disaster Outcomes of
Renter Households and Rental Housing. Community Development Block
Grant-Disaster Recovery (CDBG-DR).
OMB Approval Number: 2528-New.
Type of Request: New collection.
Form Number: N/A.
Description of the need for the information and proposed use: The
Office of Policy Development and Research (PD&R), at the U.S.
Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), is proposing the
collection of information for the HUD CDBG Disaster Recovery Outcomes
of Renter Households Cooperative Agreement.
The goal of this research is to improve disaster recovery
effectiveness for renter households by examining the disaster recovery
outcomes of renter households and rental housing stock in places that
received Community Development
[[Page 74505]]
Block Grant-Disaster Recovery grants (CDBG-DR). This research is
expected to help the Federal government, states, and communities
throughout the United States improve disaster recovery effectiveness
for renter households by providing information about how disaster
recovery programs funded through CDBG-DR have different impacts on
renters and homeowners, and how disasters impact affordable rental
housing stock over time. This research will be used to assess renter
outcomes, barriers to accessing recovery resources, and mechanisms of
Federal and local implementation of CDBG-DR grants. Results from this
study will support HUD in identifying opportunities for changes to
legislation, policy and program implementation in disaster recovery to
improve outcomes for renters.
This Federal Register Notice provides an opportunity to comment on
the information collection for this study titled HUD CDBG Disaster
Recovery Outcomes of Renter Households. The information collection is
designed to support the study of disaster outcomes on renters,
including to better understand CDBG-DR allocations across housing
tenure, specifically for renters, identify successful processes with
corresponding outcomes for rental housing recovery aid programs and
translate this research into actionable programmatic recommendations
with appropriate timelines, policy making and implementation changes to
improve these outcomes. The study includes a survey, interviews and
focus groups in communities that have received CDBG-DR funding.
Respondents: CDBG-DR grantee representatives and administrators;
elected and appointed government officials in CDBG-DR grantee
jurisdictions and municipalities; landlords and developers in CDBG-DR
grantee jurisdictions; representatives from housing and tenant advocacy
organizations; and renters living in CDBG-DR grantee jurisdictions.
