When Congress provides enough operating subsidy, at least $15 per unit annually goes from the housing authority to the resident council to carry out the council’s goals.  \nTHE FUNDING PROCESS  \nCONGRESS  \nRESIDENT COUNCIL  \nThe resident council should decide as an organization how to best use its funds provided by the housing authority. The council should seek to have the most impact and to use funds efficiently.  \nFor more information on tenant participation funds, including  \na sample agreement and decision-making tool, see the  Tenant Participation Funds section of the Public Housing Resident Organizing and Participation Toolkit. See also the Sample Resident Council and  Housing Authority Memorandum of Understanding.  \nFunding can only be provided to a resident council through a written agreement between the housing authority and the resident council. All decisions on the use of funds must follow the law and the written agreement. Along with the agreement, the resident council must submit a budget to the housing authority each year. A budget is a plan that details all the money that the organization expects to receive (income) and money it expects to spend (expenses) for the given fiscal or calendar year.  \nBudget Process  \n1. Review of previous year: At the end of the year, the board treasurer, with the support of other officers or a budget committee, should review the actual income and expenses. This review should include the impact of the expenditures.  \nYou can find public housing regulations in the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR). Most rules related to tenant organizing and participation are in Title 24, Housing and Urban Development, Part 964, Tenant Participation and Tenant Opportunities in Public Housing.  \n24 CFR § 964.150 links to the Funding tenant participation subsection. To read the regulations in detail, go to: [https://](https://)[ ](https://)[www.govinfo.gov/](www.govinfo.gov/)[ ](www.govinfo.gov/)app/details/CFR- 2016-title24-vol4/ CFR-2016-title24-vol4-sec964-150  \n» Review actual income  \n» Review actual spending and what happened (Was it a good use of funds?)  \n2. Set goals for the next year: Consider what expenses best met the goals of the resident council, any new goals the resident council has, and any changes that are needed. Consult residents. This is a great agenda item for a resident council meeting.  \n3. Create a proposed budget: Based on this review (or best estimates if this is the first budget) the treasurer will create a proposed budget to present to the full resident co","cbCaiakttrIu9PNp","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiakttrIu9PNp","pdf",1562977,10,"English","# Creating a Resident Council Budget and Workplan\n## Income\n## Expenses\n## Sample Resident Council Tenant Participation Funds Budget\n## Disbursement Document","[{\"question\":\"What is the required basis for providing tenant participation funds to a resident council?\",\"answer\":\"Funds can be provided only through a written agreement between the housing authority and the resident council.
