Amendment Defines Waivers, Exit, Termination
The MTW ACC Amendment says PHAs remain subject to existing ACC terms except where provisions are waived by the MTW Operations Notice or the MTW Selection Notice. The Amendment also outlines how a PHA may transition out of the MTW demonstration and describes HUD's termination rights if a PHA defaults.
PHAs Must Sign MTW ACC Amendment
If you are a public housing agency (PHA), HUD will require the PHA to sign the Moving to Work (MTW) Amendment to the Annual Contributions Contract (ACC) to participate in the MTW demonstration. The Amendment sets the basic terms and conditions for new PHAs and existing MTW PHAs electing to be governed under the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2016, and requires the PHA to follow the MTW Operations Notice and its Selection Notice.
