However, there are challenges such as high development costs and operating subsidies. Options include a proposal for 500 units with lower costs, continuation of the current program, or funding through the Housing Improvement Program. The OMB pass back restricts the Department of the Interior from enlarging housing programs or providing subsidies for HUD public housing, which could hinder the construction of housing for Alaskan Natives.
