We Promote Communities of Quality
HUD’s plan to base FMR’s on area zip codes as opposed to area wide jurisdiction will seriously hurt owners and managers with Section 8 Housing Vouchers as in most areas of New York City where affordable housing is located the Payment Standard will decrease. If HUD is allowed to proceed with this initiative Project Based Section 8 Contracts will be HUD’s next target. As you know if the TRA proposal is enacted and Section 8 Programs are all turned into Project Based Vouchers our project rents could also be reduced.
