Chapter 15 <br />SPECIAL HOUSING TYPES <br />[24 CFR 982 Subpart M] <br />INTRODUCTION <br />SAHA may permit a family to use any of the special housing types discussed in this chapter. <br />However, SAHA is not required to permit families receiving assistance in its jurisdiction to use <br />these housing types, except that PHAs must permit use of any special housing type if needed as a <br />reasonable accommodation for a person with a disability. SAHA also may limit the number of <br />families who receive HCV assistance in these housing types and cannot require families to use a <br />particular housing type. No special funding is provided for special housing types. <br />Special housing types include single room occupancy (SRO), congregate housing, group homes, <br />shared housing, cooperative housing, manufactured homes where the family owns the home and <br />leases the space, and homeownership [24 CFR 982.601]. <br />This chapter consists of the following seven parts. Each part contains a description of the <br />housing type and any special requirements associated with it. Except as modified by this chapter, <br />the general requirements of the HCV program apply to special housing types. <br />Part L Single Room Occupancy <br />Part IL• Congregate Housing <br />Part III: Group Homes <br />Part IV: Shared Housing <br />Part V: Cooperative Housing <br />Part VL• Manufactured Homes (including manufactured home space rental) <br />Part VII: Homeownership <br />11 /29/10 Page 15-1 <br />
