 Section 8 Homeownership
Program; Pilot Program for Homeownership Assistance for Disabled
Families; Interim Rule
This interim rule
establishes regulations to implement the three-year pilot program
authorized by section 302 of the American Homeownership and
Economic Opportunity Act of 2000. A public housing agency (PHA)
may elect to provide homeownership assistance to a disabled family
under the pilot program, rather than under the Housing Choice
Voucher Program homeownership option. Under the pilot program, a
PHA provides homeownership assistance to a disabled family
residing in a home purchased and owned by one or more members of
the family. The interim rule incorporates the requirements for the
pilot program in HUDs regulations for the homeownership option.
In addition to the amendments implementing section 302, HUD has
taken the opportunity afforded by this interim rule to make
several clarifying and technical amendments to its September 12,
2000 final rule establishing the homeownership option.
