collection instrument has been revised.
This revised information collection
automates responses through a drop
down table listing. This was done in
response to customer concerns about the
difficulty in putting information in the
previously approved form. The revised
collection adds an additional
requirement for addressing a series of
tailored management questions and a
return on investment statement when
reporting back to HUD. This process
will replace various, current progress
reporting requirements and reduce
reporting burdens. It will also promote
greater emphasis on performance and
results in grant programs. The
management questions are based on the
 Carter-Richmond methodology that
identifies key management and
evaluation questions for HUD’s
programs. The following table identifies
the Carter-Richmond generic questions
and where the source data is found in
the Logic Model.
