Section 3 Benchmarks for Creating Economic Opportunities for Low- and Very Low-Income Persons and Eligible Businesses- Facts included
- HUD’s regulations require that HUD set Section 3 benchmarks by publishing a notification, subject to public comment, in the Federal Register
- HUD must update the benchmarks no less frequently than once every three years by the same method of notification
- This document serves as an update of the 2023 benchmark Notice
- The document requests public comment about the Section 3 benchmark goals
- Sourcing
- The source is an official HUD notice, a primary government document; it is authoritative for the procedural information it conveys but provides limited substantive context.
- Framing
- The text is purely procedural and factual; it does not contain opinion, analysis, or advocacy.
- Omissions
- The notice does not explain the broader purpose of Section 3, how the benchmarks affect low‑ and very low‑income persons or eligible businesses, nor does it provide data on past benchmark performance or the specific changes being proposed.
