No. HUD currently has the authority to bring civil money penalty (CMP) actions against a Public Housing Agency (PHA) that is an owner of property receiving project-based assistance under Section 8, pursuant to Section 29 of the National Housing Act (42 U.S.C. 1437z-1). The PETRA does not change this authority. Liability under Section 29 is limited to the ownership entity itself, and does not extend to a PHA’s executive director or board members.
