Utility Allowance Schedules
Public Housing Authorities are required to maintain a utility allowance schedule for tenant-paid utilities, tenant supplied refrigerators and ranges, and other tenant-paid housing services (such as trash collection).
The utility allowance schedule must include the utilities and services necessary to provide housing that complies with Housing Quality Standards (HQS). Utility allowance schedules should not include allowances for personal expenses, such as telephone, and nonessential utility costs such as the cost of cable or satellite TV. These schedules must be entered on form HUD-52667 and updated on an annual basis.
The utility allowance schedule is determined based on the typical cost of utilities and services paid by energy-conservative households that occupy housing of a similar size and type in the same locality. The allowance is used in determining the family's share and the housing authority subsidy.
