Definitions and other general requirements that apply to this subpart are found in subpart B of this part.
Source: Legislative text reproduced verbatim
Plain English

Section 35.505 of 24 CFR Part 35 serves as a cross-reference provision, directing readers to Subpart B of Part 35 for the definitions and general requirements that govern this subpart. Rather than restating those foundational terms and rules, this section incorporates them by reference, meaning Subpart B's definitions and requirements carry full legal weight here. Understanding the operative rules of this subpart therefore requires consulting Subpart B alongside § 35.505.

Compliant operators typically familiarize themselves with Subpart B's terms before interpreting or applying any provision within this subpart. Reviewing both sections together helps ensure that key terms are understood in the manner the regulation intends.

For Tenants

Under § 35.505, the definitions and general requirements that shape tenant protections in this subpart are established in Subpart B of 24 CFR Part 35, not within this section alone. Tenants who believe a landlord has failed to meet obligations under this subpart may find it useful to review Subpart B to understand how key terms are defined and how general requirements apply. Tenant-rights organizations and HUD complaint channels can be resources for understanding how these cross-referenced provisions affect housing conditions.
