the reevaluation period. Following the
comment period, HUD will post a list,
at https://www.huduser.gov/portal/
datasets/fmr.html, of the areas
requesting reevaluations where FY 2025
FMRs remain in effect.
(4) PHAs or other parties must supply
data for reevaluations to HUD no later
than Friday, January 9, 2026. All survey
responses of rental units gathered as
part of the survey efforts should be
delivered to HUD via email. As in FY
2025, HUD requests that survey
responses include the ZIP Code or
comparable small-area identifier (such
as Census tract) of the housing unit. In
addition to the survey data, HUD
requires a current utility schedule to
evaluate the survey responses. Finally,
HUD encourages PHAs to evaluate their
survey data to ensure the survey
supports their request. Should PHAs or
their contractors undertake this
evaluation, HUD requests that this
analysis also be submitted.
HUD will use the data delivered by
January 9, 2026, to reevaluate the FMRs
and following the reevaluation, HUD
will post revised FMRs in April of 2026
with an accompanying Federal Register
notice stating the revised FMRs are
available, which will include HUD’s
responses to comments filed during the
comment period for this notice. By
January 16, 2026, HUD will post at
https://www.huduser.gov/portal/
datasets/fmr.html, a listing of the areas
that requested FMR reevaluations and
continued effect of the FY2025 FMRs
but did not deliver data, making the FY
2026 FMRs effective in these areas. HUD
will incorporate any data supporting a
change in FMRs supplied after January
9, 2026 into the FY 2027 FMRs.
Questions on how to conduct FMR
surveys may be addressed to the
Program Parameters and Research
Division at pprd@hud.gov.
For small metropolitan areas without
one-year ACS data and nonmetropolitan counties, HUD has
developed a method of using mail
surveys that is discussed on the FMR
web page: https://www.huduser.gov/
portal/datasets/fmr.html#survey_info.
This method allows for a PHA to submit
a valid survey consisting of as few as
100 one-bedroom, two-bedroom, and
three-bedroom units.
Other survey methods are acceptable
in providing data to support
reevaluation requests if the survey
method can provide statistically
reliable, unbiased estimates of gross
rents paid throughout the entire FMR
area and small area identifiers for the
survey responses. In general,
recommendations for FMR changes and
supporting data must reflect the rent

levels that exist within the entire FMR
area and should be statistically reliable.
PHAs in non-metropolitan areas are
required to obtain 100 eligible survey
responses which means they may need
a sampling frame of at least 5,000 rental
units, taking into account survey nonresponse rates and the fact that some
units will fail to qualify. PHAs may
conduct surveys of groups of nonmetropolitan counties to increase the
number of rental units that are
surveyed, but HUD must approve all
county-grouped surveys in advance.
HUD cautions that the resulting FMRs
may not be identical for the counties
surveyed; each individual FMR area
will have a separate FMR based on the
relationship of rents in that area to the
combined rents in the cluster of FMR
areas. In addition, HUD advises that in
counties where FMRs are based on the
combined rents in the cluster of FMR
areas, HUD will not revise their FMRs
unless the grouped survey results show
a revised FMR statistically different
from the combined rent level.
Survey samples should preferably be
randomly drawn from a complete list of
rental units for the FMR area. If this is
not feasible, the selected sample must
be drawn to be statistically
representative of the entire rental
housing stock of the FMR area. Surveys
must include units at all rent levels and
be representative by structure type
(including single-family, duplex, and
other small rental properties), age of
housing unit, and geographic location.
The current 5-year ACS data should be
used as a means of verifying if a sample
is representative of the FMR area’s
rental housing stock. HUD staff are
available to work with PHAs in areas
requesting re-evaluations to provide the
minimum number of survey cases
required to ensure that data submitted
for re-evaluation represent a statistically
valid sample. In cases where a
submitted sample is not representative,
HUD may attempt to weight the sample
cases prior to calculating 40th percentile
rent estimates.
A PHA or contractor that cannot
obtain the recommended number of
sample responses after reasonable
efforts should consult with HUD before
abandoning its survey; in such
situations, HUD may find it appropriate
to relax normal sample size
requirements, but in no case will fewer
than 100 eligible cases be considered.

This notice involves the
establishment of FMR schedules, which

CFR 50.19(c)(6), this notice is
categorically excluded from
environmental review under the
National Environmental Policy Act of

Notes
Arrangement of FMR Areas and

a. The Metropolitan and NonMetropolitan FMR Area Schedule lists
FMRs alphabetically by state, by
metropolitan area and by nonmetropolitan county within each state
and are available at https://
www.huduser.gov/portal/datasets/
fmr.html.
b. The schedule lists the constituent
counties (and New England towns and
cities) included in each metropolitan
FMR area immediately following the
listings of the FMR dollar amounts. All
constituent parts of a metropolitan FMR
area that are in more than one state can
be identified by consulting the listings
for each applicable state.
c. The schedule lists two nonmetropolitan counties alphabetically on
each line of the non-metropolitan
county listings.
d. Similarly, the schedule lists the
New England towns and cities included
in a non-metropolitan county
immediately following the county name.

Section A. The Federal Register notice
that solicited public comment on the
information collection for a period of 60
days was published on May 2, 2025 at

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

A. Overview of Information Collection
Title of Information Collection:
Housing Trust Fund.
OMB Approval Number: 2506–0215.
Type of Request: Extension of a
currently approved collection.
Form Number: HUD–27055.
Description of the need for the
information and proposed use: The
information collected through HUD’s
Integrated Disbursement and
Information System (IDIS) (24 CFR
93.402) is used by HUD Field Offices,
HUD Headquarters, and HTF grantees.
The information on program funds
committed and disbursed is used by
HUD to track grantee performance and
to determine compliance with the
statutory 24-month commitment
deadline (12 U.S.C. 4568(c)(10)(B) and
24 CFR 93.400(d)(1)) and the regulatory
5-year expenditure deadline (24 CFR
93.400(d)(2)). The project-specific
property, tenant, owner, and financial
data is used to make program
management decisions about how well
program participants and grantees are
achieving the statutory objectives of the
HTF Program. Program management

reports are generated by IDIS to provide
data on the status of grantees’
commitment and disbursement of HTF
funds. These reports are provided to
HUD staff as well as to HTF grantees.
Financial, project, tenant and owner
documentation are used to determine
compliance with HTF Program cost
limits (24 CFR 93.404), eligible activities
(24 CFR 93.200), and eligible costs (24
CFR 93.201). Other information
collected under 24 CFR part 93, subpart
H (Other Federal Requirements) is
primarily intended for local program
management and is only viewed by
HUD during routine monitoring visits.
The written agreement with the owner
that commits funds to a project (24 CFR
93.404) demonstrates an HTF grantee’s
compliance with requirements relating
to commitments, project eligibility (24
CFR 93.200), tenant protections (24 CFR
93.303), and eligible costs (24 CFR
93.201), and is required to ensure that
the HTF grantee and property owner
comply with these important elements
of the HTF program. Written agreements
are reviewed by HUD during monitoring
visits. HUD reviews all other data
collection requirements during
monitoring to assure compliance with
the requirements of the Act and other
related laws and authorities.
HUD tracks grantee performance and
compliance with the requirements of 24
CFR parts 91 and 93. Grantees use the
required information in the execution of
their program, and to gauge their own
performance in relation to stated goals.
