Project A is a 100-unit HUD assisted project. A tenant in this project needs more than $5,000 in structural changes for his unit to be accessible to him. The owner of Project A could not cover the costs of such extensive structural changes without a rent increase. Residual receipts are insufficient to cover the changes, and the replacement reserve cannot be replenished within one year. The project does not have sufficient administrative staff to explore numerous possibilities for obtaining funding for such structural changes. Generally an owner would not be required to make such extensive structural changes because of the burden involved. Note that the amount an owner is required to spend to make units accessible could vary based on the size of the project – what the owner of a large project may be able to spend in making units accessible may be an undue burden on smaller projects.
