House Proposal for 2011:Protects Rental Assistance Renewals Renewal of ongoing rental assistance largely protected except for $1B+ cut in public housing capital funds. • Project-based Section 8 (PBRA) increased the full $731M over 2010 that had been incorporated in the end-of-year failed omnibus. • For the Housing Choice Voucher program: $364M increase in renewal funding over 2010 appears to fully fund the renewal formula, but renewal funding for 811 Mainstream vouchers is largely omitted. • Public housing operating formula close to full funding due to lower utility costs, despite cut of $149M. • But sharp decrease in HCV administrative fees ($368M below 2010) and public housing capital fund cut could lead to fewer families served. • Full renewal of smaller rental assistance programs (202/elderly, 811 project-based/disabled, Shelter-Plus-Care, Supportive Housing, HOPWA).
