For purposes of this subpart only, any action or approval that is required to be taken or provided by HUD or by the HUD field office, pursuant to a requirement set forth in subparts A through F of this part, shall be construed to mean that HUD Headquarters shall take such action or provide such approval, unless the field office is authorized in writing by Headquarters to carry out a specific function under this subpart.

(d) Applicability of requirements pursuant to The requirements of 24 CFR part 85 are applicable to this subpart, subject to the following two provisos:

(1) A PHA may select a partner using competitive proposal procedures for qualifications-based procurement (subject to negotiation of fair and reasonable compensation, including TDC and other applicable cost limitations);

(2) An owner entity (which, as a private entity, would normally not be subject to part 24 CFR part 85) shall be required to comply with 24 CFR part 85 if HUD determines that the PHA or PHA instrumentality exercises significant functions within the owner entity with respect to managing the development of the proposed units. HUD may, on a case-by-case basis, exempt such an owner entity from the need to comply with 24 CFR part 85 if it determines that the owner entity has developed an acceptable alternative procurement plan.
