Operative Text
Definitions and other general requirements that apply to this subpart are found in subpart B of this part.
Section 35.1205 establishes that the definitions and general requirements governing this subpart are not restated here but are instead located in Subpart B of 24 CFR Part 35. This cross-reference means that any term or baseline requirement used throughout this subpart carries the meaning and scope set out in that foundational section. Readers must consult Subpart B to fully understand the operative standards that apply.

Property owners and managers subject to 24 CFR Part 35 § 35.1205 should be aware that the definitions and baseline obligations controlling this subpart are housed in Subpart B of Part 35, not within this section itself. Compliant operators typically review Subpart B first to ensure they understand how key terms—such as those related to lead-based paint hazards—are defined before applying the requirements of this subpart. Familiarity with Subpart B is generally considered a prerequisite to correctly interpreting any specific duty found in this subpart.

Under 24 CFR Part 35 § 35.1205, the definitions and general requirements that shape tenant protections in this subpart are found in Subpart B of Part 35, meaning the full scope of those protections cannot be understood from this section alone. Tenants who believe a landlord has failed to meet an obligation under this subpart may find it useful to review Subpart B to understand how relevant terms are defined and what baseline standards apply. Tenant-rights organizations or a local HUD office can be resources for understanding how Subpart B's definitions interact with the protections relevant to a particular housing situation.
