MCEO NO. 131-11:  DEPARTMENT OF HOUSING AND COMMUNITY AFFAIRS - Adjustment to MPDU Sales Prices.  Section 25 A-7(a)(4) of the Montgomery County Code 2004, as amended, states that the County Executive may make interim adjustments in the maximum MPDU sales prices when changes in residential construction costs justify a modification to the prices.  Interim modifications must be based on the approved MPDU prices which are adjusted by the percentage change in the Consumer Price Index-All Urban Consumers (CPI-U) for the Washington-Baltimore Area, as published by the U.S. Department of Labor. MPDU Prices were established by Executive Order 35-90 and subsequently adjusted though Executive Orders 159- 92, 69-94,151-96,273-99, 72-01,262-02,106-04, and 204-05.  There have been significant increases in the cost of construction materials and products used in residential housing that justify an increase in the maximum sales prices of MPDUs.  There has been an 18.2 percent increase in the CPI-U from May 1, 2005 to May 1, 2011.  It is therefore ordered that a price per square foot increase of 18.2 percent be approved, and that the MPDU Minimum Pricing Standards and Minimum Specifications be updated accordingly.  Effective Date:  6/14/11
