The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) has issued a notice to gather public comments on the Affirmative Fair Housing Marketing Plan (AFHMP) forms over a 60-day period in line with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. These forms document advertising and outreach practices of various housing project owners or developers to ensure fair access to housing without discrimination. HUD is requesting feedback on the information collection practices, focusing on practicality, accuracy, and ways to leverage technology such as electronic submissions. Public feedback is sought to ensure that the collection process is efficient and inclusive, in compliance with federal regulations.
Simple Explanation
The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) wants to hear what people think about forms that help make sure everyone can find a home without being treated unfairly. They're asking if there’s a better way to fill out or use the forms, like using computers to make it easier.
