This report is based on HUD-52723 Operating Fund Calculation of Operating Subsidy forms submitted by PHAs through field offices and processed by FMD as of August 26, 2014. The 2014 operating fund appropriation required the program to take in consideration the impact of flat rent implementation in the current year. This report provides the project level eligibility after the flat rent adjustment. HUD estimated the flat rent impact to be $40 million. FMD has calculated a project flat rent adjustment by distributing the $40 million across projects based on each project's percent of the total 2014 program eligibility. Projects’ eligibility and flat rent adjustments are anticipated to fluctuate to a minor degree as a normal part of program closeout in September 2014.
