Summary

The Secretary must give a State housing agency some or all duties to run this part of the law if the State sends a preservation plan the Secretary accepts. Plans must follow the Secretary’s form and process and may be approved if they include seven types of information, such as an inventory of low‑income housing that will be eligible within 5 years; the agency’s experience; the staff and systems it will use to process and monitor plans; an independent review of housing performance; a certification from the official who files the State’s housing strategy under 42 U.S.C. 12705; and any other information the Secretary needs. If the Secretary approves a plan, the Secretary can make agreements to carry it out, and may include incentives allowed elsewhere in the law.
