SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This notice informs the public that HUD is
seeking approval from OMB for the information collection described in
Section A.
A. Overview of Information Collection
Title of Information Collection: Public Housing Flat Rent Exception
Request Market Analysis.
OMB Approval Number: 2577-0290.
Type of Request: Extension of a currently approved collection.
Form Number: HUD-5880.
Description of the need for the information and proposed use: Form
HUD-5880 streamlines the process and reduces burden on PHAs when
submitting a market analysis as part of a flat rent exception request
in accordance with Notice PIH 2022-33, which implements Section 238 of
Title II of Public Law 113-235, the Department of Housing and Urban
Development Appropriations Act of 2015. Notice PIH 2022-33 allows PHAs
to request flat rents that are based on the local rental market
conditions, when the PHA can demonstrate through a market analysis that
the Fair Market Rents (FMRs) are not reflective of the local market.
This version of the form has been in use since FY2023. HUD is adjusting
the average number of respondents and hourly cost per response to
reflect the average level of submissions in FY2023, FY2024, and FY2025
and higher wage estimates from the Occupational Employment and Wage
Statistics, but HUD is not proposing any changes to the form being
renewed.
Respondents: Public Housing Agencies.
