24 C.F.R. § 883.301
§ 883.301 Applicability. (24 CFR Part 883)
Operative Text
The provisions of this subpart are applicable to newly constructed and substantially rehabilitated housing allocated contract authority under subpart B of this part and processed and constructed under the Fast Tract Procedures of subpart D. The definitions contained in § 883.302 and the provisions of § 883.307(b) regarding review and approval of financing documents, however, apply to all of this part.
Section 883.301 establishes the scope of a particular subpart within the 24 CFR Part 883 framework, specifying that its rules govern newly constructed and substantially rehabilitated housing that has been allocated contract authority under subpart B and processed through the Fast Track Procedures of subpart D. Two elements—the definitions found in § 883.302 and the financing-document review and approval provisions of § 883.307(b)—carry broader reach and apply across the entire part, not just to the housing described above. In effect, this provision draws a boundary between rules that apply narrowly to a specific category of projects and rules that apply universally throughout Part 883.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Property owners and managers working with housing under 24 CFR Part 883 generally confirm at the outset whether their project falls within the scope described in § 883.301—specifically, whether it involves newly constructed or substantially rehabilitated units allocated contract authority under subpart B and processed under subpart D's Fast Track Procedures. Compliant operators also recognize that regardless of which subpart otherwise governs their project, the definitions in § 883.302 and the financing-document review requirements of § 883.307(b) apply universally. Keeping this applicability framework in mind helps operators identify which procedural and substantive requirements attach to their particular project type.
General guidance for property managers — not legal advice for your specific situation. Consult an attorney for advice on your case.
For tenants living in housing developed under 24 CFR Part 883, § 883.301 clarifies which regulatory provisions govern the project—an important baseline for understanding what protections and requirements apply. Because the definitions in § 883.302 and the financing-document provisions of § 883.307(b) apply across all of Part 883, tenants in any Part 883 project may find those sections relevant to their situation. Tenants seeking to understand how these applicability rules affect their rights can consult a local tenant-rights organization or HUD's regional offices for general guidance.
