§1582 Temporary Housing Exempted From Provisions of Section 1553 of This Title

Summary

Exempts certain temporary housing from the rules in section 1553. The rules do not apply when HUD has waived them under sections 1575 or 1581, when HUD transfers the housing to the Army, Navy, or Air Force under section 1524, or when HUD disposes of the units under subchapter II or IV for long-term housing or nonhousing use and the local city or county passes a resolution saying the buildings are acceptable for long-term use (either as-is or if specific physical conditions are met). Any local conditions in that resolution do not change the disposal and the United States will not be responsible for meeting them. Housing disposed for housing use this way is treated as completed after June 30, 1947 for veterans’ preference under the Housing and Rent Act of 1947. Housing disposed or given up by HUD before April 20, 1950 is also exempt if the local government adopts the required resolution on or before December 31, 1950; any federal contract obligation to remove that housing ends when the resolution is filed with HUD.
