Book excerpt: On June 21, 2000, the House passed the VA-HUD FY2001 appropriations bill, H.R. 4635, that recommends $30.0 billion for the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). This is an increase of nearly 16% or $4.1 billion more than the $25.9 billion enacted last year. But, it is $2.5 billion less than the Administration's request for $32.5 billion. The Housing Certificate Fund would receive $13.275 billion, $853 million less than the Administration's request. No funds are specifically designated for the 120,000 incremental rental housing vouchers that the Administration requested. However, the House-passed bill provides for 10,000 vouchers to be used with low income housing tax credit projects and another 10,000 new limited-use vouchers that could be used by public housing authorities with a 97% voucher utilization rate. While the VA-HUD subcommittee believes the $13.275 billion approved for the Housing Certificate Fund is sufficient to renew all expiring Section 8 rental assistance contracts and protect all current tenants, the Administration is concerned that this may not be the case. Some HUD programs would receive less funding than last year: the public housing capital fund, HOPE VI, Community Development Block Grants and the HOME programs. Programs for the homeless, the elderly, and the disabled would receive the same level of funding as in FY2000. The Senate Appropriations Committee has not yet approved a HUD budget. In addition to deliberations over the HUD budget, other agenda items during the second session of the 106th Congress include bills to increase the Low Income Housing Tax Credit (H.R. 175/S. 1017) and private activity bonds (H.R. 864, S. 459). On July 25, 2000, a community renewal bill supported by both the Speaker of the House and the President, H.R. 4923, passed the House. This bill would phase-in an increase in both the housing tax credit and the private activity bond program. H.R. 1776, a bill containing homeownership initiatives, was passed by the House on April 6 by a vote of 417 to 8. Other bills with hearings or committee votes include H.R. 21, which would reinsure state disaster insurance programs, and H.R. 1073, which would consolidate McKinney Act homeless housing programs into a block grant to states. Bills have been introduced to address concerns over ''predatory lending'' to lower income homebuyers, including fraudulent appraisals, exorbitant loan fees and other onerous mortgage terms. These include H.R. 3901, H.R. 4213, H.R. 4250, S. 2405 and S. 2415. There are also recent bills proposing alternative uses for an estimated $5 billion of ''excess'' Federal Housing Administration (FHA) mortgage insurance program reserves. H.R. 4795 and S. 2914 would require HUD to make partial rebates of FHA excess reserves to certain FHA-insured homeowners. On July 27, 2000, S. 2997 was introduced to establish a national affordable housing trust fund financed by excess incomes (reserves) generated by the FHA mortgage insurance program and by HUD's Government National Mortgage Association.

Download or read book Construction Process Improvement written by Brian Atkin and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2008-04-15 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The construction process has come under intense scrutiny in recent times and this is set to continue as building owners and users demand better value for money from a more sustainable built environment. The construction sector’s actors are responding to the challenges implicit in this drive for greater competitiveness and social responsibility. New forms of procurement, innovation programmes, knowledge management, CAD-supported processes, predictive and diagnostic tools, and many more initiatives are helping to transform the sector. Construction Process Improvement showcases 21 examples of how directed efforts are being taken to raise productivity and quality, reduce waste and costs, and provide more certain and durable products for the sector’s customers. Each example is the subject of a closely coupled collaborative project in which answers are being sought on matters of strategic importance to companies. The chapters that describe and discuss these projects balance state-of-the-art reviews with details of the work being undertaken and, in many cases, the results that are being implemented within the companies. Construction Process Improvement deals with issues that matter to best practice companies and researchers in industry and universities. It covers, amongst other topics, modularisation for manufactured housing, life cycle methods in housing, commercial buildings and services installations, tools and techniques for performance prediction and diagnostics, coordination of design and production processes, novel use of traditional materials, new forms of procurement and the role of innovation, public private partnerships, partnering structures, learning organisations, management of major refurbishment, management information systems, TQM and continuous improvement, CAAD methodology, tools and 4-D CAD, and facilities management. This book analyses the way forward for improving the construction process, in particular the links between research and development and industrial competitiveness. The implementation of new methods and thinking in companies is examined and important advice for senior managers and researchers is offered.

Download or read book Kumba Africa written by Sampson Ejike Odum and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2020-11-03 with total page 123 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ‘KUMBA AFRICA’, is a compilation of African Short Stories written as fiction by Sampson Ejike Odum, nostalgically taking our memory back several thousands of years ago in Africa, reminding us about our past heritage. It digs deep into the traditional life style of the Africans of old, their beliefs, their leadership, their courage, their culture, their wars, their defeat and their victories long before the emergence of the white man on the soil of Africa. As a talented writer of rich resource and superior creativity, armed with in-depth knowledge of different cultures and traditions in Africa, the Author throws light on the rich cultural heritage of the people of Africa when civilization was yet unknown to the people. The book reminds the readers that the Africans of old kept their pride and still enjoyed their own lives. They celebrated victories when wars were won, enjoyed their New yam festivals and villages engaged themselves in seasonal wrestling contest etc; Early morning during harmattan season, they gathered firewood and made fire inside their small huts to hit up their bodies from the chilling cold of the harmattan. That was the Africa of old we will always remember. In Africa today, the story have changed. The people now enjoy civilized cultures made possible by the influence of the white man through his scientific and technological process. Yet there are some uncivilized places in Africa whose people haven’t tested or felt the impact of civilization. These people still maintain their ancient traditions and culture. In everything, we believe that days when people paraded barefooted in Africa to the swarmp to tap palm wine and fetch firewood from there farms are almost fading away. The huts are now gradually been replaced with houses built of blocks and beautiful roofs. Thanks to modern civilization. Donkeys and camels are no longer used for carrying heavy loads for merchants. They are now been replaced by heavy trucks and lorries. African traditional methods of healing are now been substituted by hospitals. In all these, I will always love and remember Africa, the home of my birth and must respect her cultures and traditions as an AFRICAN AUTHOR.
