He highlights issues with HUD's decision-making process, penalties for delinquent balances, and delays in audits. Halfmoon recommends a separate Indian Housing Program or transferring the program to another agency if HUD cannot address these issues. He also calls for more decision-making power at the local level, additional staff, and a clearer payoff formula.</dc:description></oai_dc:dc>
