Monday federal miscellany
Of possible interest to housing folks this morning:
- The Census Bureau has issued its estimates of the U.S. voting-age population as of July 2005. The national total is almost 223 million.
- The Federal Housing Finance Board meets on Wednesday.
- HUD's Inspector General has posted new critical audits of the Prichard, Alabama housing authority and of two private companies in Florida and Wyoming that, like many others these past few years, have been accused of carelessness in screening single-family mortgages for FHA insurance.
- HUD returns the housing authority of Sanford, Florida to local control after a two-year receivership. Straightening out the agency was a special project of Rep. Mica's.
- Last week HUD held a multifamily and health care loan sale. The official announcement emphasizes procedural changes that allowed more piecemeal bids on individual loans. Names of the buyers are listed.
