(1) The indicator: This indicator shows whether the PHA enters into HAP contracts for the number of the PHA's baseline voucher units (units that are contracted under a Consolidated ACC) for the calendar year that ends on or before the PHA's fiscal year or whether the PHA has expended its allocated budget authority for the same calendar year. Submission of deconcentration data for this indicator is optional for all other PHAs.

(1) This indicator shows whether the PHA inspects each unit under contract at least annually. Since SEMAP ratings are generally calculated based on the percentage of the PHA's leased housing units that meet the specified criteria, a difference of one or two units can have a disproportionate impact on a small PHA's SEMAP score. (24 CFR 982.517). user convenience only and is not intended to alter agency intent The PHA's SEMAP certification also states that the reinspected sample was drawn from recently completed HQS inspections (i.e., performed during the 3 months preceding the quality control reinspection) and was drawn to represent a cross section of neighborhoods and the work of a cross section of inspectors. For example, a report generated on February 15, 2015 (F) PHA documentation shows that the PHA has analyzed whether rental voucher holders have experienced difficulties in finding housing outside areas of poverty or minority concentration and, if such difficulties have been found, PHA documentation shows that the PHA has analyzed whether it is appropriate to seek approval of exception payment standard amounts in any part of its jurisdiction and has sought HUD approval of exception payment standard amounts when necessary.

(B) Based on the PHA's quality control sample of tenant files, the PHA follows its written method to determine reasonable rent and has documented its determination that the rent to owner is reasonable in accordance with 982.507 of this chapter for at least 98 percent of units sampled at the time of initial leasing, if there is any increase in the rent to owner, and at the HAP contract anniversary if there is a 10 percent decrease in the published FMR in effect 60 days before the HAP contract anniversary. As a The indicator consists of 2 components which show whether the PHA has enrolled families in the FSS program as required, and the extent of the PHA's progress in supporting FSS by measuring the percent of current FSS participants with FSS progress reports entered in MTCS that have had increases in earned income which resulted in escrow account balances. : [63 FR 48555, Sept. 10, 1998, as amended at 64 FR 40497, July 26, 1999; 64 FR 67983, Dec. 3, 1999; 65 FR 16733, Mar.

The PHA must implement a thorough corrective action plan that HUD will monitor, to ensure improvement in program management.
