On January 11, 2000, HUD published an Amendment to the final rule of Section 502 of the
National Affordable Housing Act of 1990 that established a new system for the assessment of public
housing agencies. The new system, the Public Housing Assessment System (PHAS), is designed to
enhance public trust by creating a comprehensive tool that qualitatively and quantitatively measures a
public housing agency based on standards that are objective and uniform.
Under PHAS, HUD evaluates a PHA based on the following four indicators:
(1) Physical Condition
(2) Financial Condition
(3) Management Operations
(4) Resident Services Satisfaction
The adoption of this resolution by the Board will satisfy the HUD requirement for a Board
resolution certifying the electronic submission of indicator number 3, Management Operations. All other
indicators are in the process or have been evaluated by HUD staff. Based upon the electronic submission
