Administrative Plan 7/1/2025 Page 17-45 <br />Execution of the HAP Contract [24 CFR 983.204] <br />Before execution of the HAP contract, the PHA must determine that applicable pre-HAP contract <br />housing quality standards requirements have been met in accordance with 24 CFR 983.103(b) or <br />(c) as applicable. The PHA may not execute the HAP contract for any contract unit that does not <br />meet the pre-HAP contract housing quality standards requirements. For existing housing, the <br />HAP contract must be executed promptly after the PHA selects the owner proposal and the PHA <br />determines that applicable pre-HAP contract housing quality standards requirements have been <br />met. For newly constructed or rehabilitated housing that will not undergo development activity <br />after HAP contract execution, the HAP contract must be executed promptly after the PHA has <br />inspected the completed units and has determined that the units have been completed in <br />accordance with the AHAP, and the owner furnishes all required evidence of completion. For <br />rehabilitated housing that will undergo development activity after HAP contract execution, the <br />HAP contract must be executed and effective promptly after all proposed PBV units are added to <br />the contract at this time, including units that do not comply with HQS or that will undergo <br />development activity. <br />SAHA Policy <br />For existing housing, the HAP contract will be executed within 14 calendar days of <br />SAHA determining that all units pass inspection. <br />For rehabilitated or newly constructed housing, the HAP contract will be executed within <br />14 calendar days of SAHA determining that the units have been completed in accordance <br />with the AHAP, all units meet housing quality standards, and the owner has submitted all <br />required evidence of completion. <br />Effective Date of the HAP Contract [24 CFR 983.204(d)] <br />The effective date of the HAP contract must be on or after the date the HAP contract is executed. <br />The HAP contract must be effective before the effective date of the first lease covering a contract <br />unit occupied by an assisted family, and the PHA may not pay any housing assistance payment <br />to the owner until the HAP contract is effective. <br />EXHIBIT 1
