The Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs (TDHCA) is releasing two proposed rule actions for public comment on 10 TAC Chapter 10, Sec. 10.605, Elections Under IRC Sec. 42(g), and Sec. 10.617, Affirmative Marketing Requirements, as approved by the TDHCA Governing Board on December 7, 2023.
Under Tex. Gov’t Code Sec. 2001.039, which requires that state agencies review a rule every four years to assess whether the reasons for initially adopting the rule continue to exist, these sections are now required to be evaluated. Staff has determined that there is a continuing need for these rules to exist and that no revisions are currently warranted. The Secretary of State requires that even when no revisions are proposed, the rule be released for a public comment period. Therefore, the rule will be made available for public comment from February 23, 2024, through March 23, 2024, and returned to the Board for final approval.
The proposed rule action can be found on the TDHCA Public Comment Center at https://www.tdhca.texas.gov/tdhca-public-comment-center, and is expected to be posted in the Texas Register edition dated February 23, 2024, at http://www.sos.state.tx.us/texreg/index.shtml.
Written comments may be submitted to the Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs, Brooke Boston, via email to [email protected].
ALL COMMENTS MUST BE RECEIVED BY 5 p.m., Central Time, on March 23, 2024.
