  2. EV – PBV Program Background • DHCD has created an initiative to promote the long-term preservation of affordable units in expiring use multi-family developments. • Using its Moving to Work (MTW) authority, DHCD can convert an allocation of Enhanced Vouchers (EVs) into Project Based Vouchers (PBVs)and sign associated HAP contracts. • Credit to the Cambridge Housing Authority for its ground breaking work on this preservation tool.

  3. EV-PBV Eligible Properties • Existing subsidized multi-family properties that are undergoing a conversion action for which HUD has issued a notice of intent to provide Enhanced Vouchers. • HUD has designated DHCD to administer the Enhanced Vouchers. • The owner or prospective owner has requested participation in the program.

  4. EV-PBV Eligible Units • Units that accommodate tenants that have chosen to live in a Project Based Section 8 unit. • Units that receive vouchers but have ineligible tenants. • Units that receive vouchers but are vacant at the time the vouchers is issued, but have not been vacant for more than 24 months.

  5. EV – PBV Process • At least 120 days prior to a conversion, all tenants will be contacted by an independent 3rd party to examine and discuss their options. (Refer to voucher comparison chart) • Tenants will be offered a choice of an EV or residence in a PBV units. • The 3rd party will take a preliminary count of how many tenants are interested in living in a PBV. • DHCD will provide this information to HUD. HUD will only consider awarding the contract administration to a MTW agency if there is a critical number of tenants interested.

  6. EV – PBV Contract and Terms • Initial contract terms of up to 15 years with three (3) five-year renewals. Maximum of 30 years. • Owner must apply to DHCD for program participation and DHCD must conduct a HQS inspection and determine reasonable rent. • Owners will enter into a standard HUD PBV HAP contract.

  7. MRVP units in EV-PBV Projects • Some of the eligible EV-PBV projects have MRVP contracts. Tenants in an existing MRVP unit will be given the option of receiving an EV or tenancy in a unit with a PBV. • If a tenant living in a MRVP unit is not eligible for a EV or PBV, but they remain eligible for the MRVP program, DHCD is committed to keeping that MRVP voucher in the development. • DHCD will recapture any unused MRVPvouchers and reprogram.
