SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Paperwork Reduction Act Statement

The information collection requirements contained in this NOFA have

been approved by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), under

section 3504(h) of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1980 (44 U.S.C. 3501-

3520), and assigned OMB Control Number 2502-0267.

I. Purpose and Substantive Description

A. Authority

Section 801 of the Cranston-Gonzalez National Affordable Housing

Act (NAHA) (Pub. L. 101-625, approved November 28, 1990), amended

section 202 of the Housing Act of 1959 (12 U.S.C. 1701q). Section 202

was also amended by the Housing and Community Development Act of 1992

(HCD Act of 1992) (Pub. L. 102-550, approved October 28, 1992). The

Secretary is authorized to provide assistance to private nonprofit

organizations and nonprofit consumer cooperatives to expand the supply

of supportive housing for the elderly. HUD provides the assistance as

capital advances and contracts for project rental assistance in

accordance with 24 CFR part 889. This assistance may be used to finance

the construction or rehabilitation of a structure, or acquisition of a

structure from the Resolution Trust Corporation (RTC), to be used as

supportive housing for the elderly in accordance with part 889.

For supportive housing for the elderly, the Departments of Veterans

Affairs and Housing and Urban Development, and Independent Agencies

Appropriations Act, 1995 (Pub. L. 103-327, approved September 28, 1994)

(Fiscal Year 1995 Appropriations Act) provides $1,279,000,000 for

capital advances, including amendments to capital advance contracts

(not procurement contracts), for housing for the elderly as authorized

by section 202 of the Housing Act of 1959, (as amended by the NAHA and

HCD Act of 1992), and for project rental assistance, and amendments to

contracts for project rental assistance, for supportive housing for the

elderly under section 202(c)(2) of the Housing Act of 1959, as amended.

The Fiscal Year 1995 Appropriations Act further provides that

$22,000,000 of the above total shall be for service coordinators

pursuant to section 202(q) of the Housing Act of 1959, as amended, and

subtitle E of title VI of the Housing and Community Development Act of

1992, other than section 676 of such Act and section 8(d)(2)(F)(i) of

the Act. Any unreserved balances provided in prior years for such

purposes are to be merged with amounts provided in the Fiscal Year 1995

Appropriations Act.

In accordance with an agreement between HUD and the Administration

for Rural Housing and Economic Development Services (ARHEDS) (formerly

the Farmers Home Administration (FmHA), which facilitates the

coordination between the two agencies in administering their respective

rental assistance programs, HUD is required to notify ARHEDS of

applications for housing assistance it receives. This notification

gives ARHEDS the opportunity to comment if it has concerns about the

demand for additional assisted housing and possible harm to existing

projects in the same housing market area. HUD will consider the ARHEDS

comments in its review and project selection process.

B. Allocation Amounts

In accordance with 24 CFR part 791, the Assistant Secretary will

allocate the amounts available for capital advances for supportive

housing for the elderly. HUD reserves project rental assistance funds

sufficient for 20-year project rental assistance contracts in support

of the units selected for capital advances, consistent with current

operating cost standards.

The allocation formula for Section 202 funds consists of a measure

of the number of one- and two-person elderly renter households with

incomes at or below the very low income limit (50 percent of area

median family income, as determined by HUD, with an adjustment for

household size) that have housing deficiencies.

Since the allocations to some HUD Offices are not sufficient to

develop feasible projects in both metropolitan and nonmetropolitan

areas, the funds may be allocated to only one of the geographical

areas. HUD Offices that have an allocation for only one area may accept

applications for the other area. However, these applications can only

be funded by that HUD Office after all other approvable applications

submitted in response to the advertised allocation area have been

funded by that HUD Office.

Applicants for capital advances in the area served by the Wisconsin

State HUD Office are hereby put on notice that the capital advance

amount available to the Wisconsin Office, as stated in this NOFA, may

be reduced or eliminated due to ongoing legal proceedings between HUD

and the City of [[Page 27613]] Milwaukee, and that the determination of

whether to reduce or eliminate those funds is entirely within the

discretion of HUD. If HUD takes such action or actions, it will publish

a notice to that effect in the Federal Register.

Based on the allocation formula, HUD has allocated the available

capital advance funds as shown on the following chart:

C. Eligibility

Private, nonprofit organizations and nonprofit consumer

cooperatives are the only eligible applicants under this program.

Neither a public body nor an instrumentality of a public body is

eligible to participate in the program. No organization shall

participate as Sponsor or Co-sponsor in the filing of application(s)

for a capital advance in a single geographical region in this fiscal

year in excess of that necessary to finance the construction,

rehabilitation, or acquisition (acquisition permitted only with RTC

properties) of 300 units of housing and related facilities for the

elderly. This limit shall apply to organizations that participate as

Co-sponsors regardless of whether the Co-sponsors are affiliated or

nonaffiliated entities. In addition, the national limit for any one

applicant is 10 percent of the total units allocated in all HUD

Offices. Affiliated entities that submit separate applications shall be

deemed to be a single entity for the purposes of these limits. No

single application may propose more than the number of units allocated

to a HUD Office or 125 units, whichever is less. Reservations for

projects will not be approved for less than 5 units.

D. Initial Screening, Technical Processing, and Selection Criteria

1. Initial Screening

HUD will review applications for Section 202 capital advances that

are received by HUD at the appropriate address by 4 p.m. local time on

July 24, 1995, to determine if all parts of the application are

included. HUD will not review the content of the application as part of

initial screening. HUD will send deficiency letters, by certified mail,

informing Sponsors of any missing parts of the application. Sponsors

must correct such deficiencies within 14 calendar days from the date of

the deficiency letter. Any document requested as a result of the

initial screening may be executed or prepared within the deficiency

period, except for Forms HUD-92015-CAs, Articles of Incorporation, IRS

exemption rulings, Forms SF-424, Board Resolution committing the

minimum capital investment, and site control documents (all of these

excepted items must be dated no later than the application deadline

date).

Note: SPONSORS OF PROJECTS IN OKLAHOMA MAY SUBMIT THE

CERTIFICATION OF CONSISTENCY WITH THE CONSOLIDATED PLAN AFTER THE

APPLICATION DEADLINE DATE BUT NO LATER THAN AUGUST 25, 1995. If this

is the only deficiency discovered during initial screening, affected

Sponsors will not receive a deficiency letter.

2. Technical Processing

All applications will be placed in technical processing upon

receipt of the response to the deficiency letter or at the end of the

14-day period. These applications will undergo a complete analysis. If

a reviewer finds that clarification is needed to complete the review,

or an exhibit is missing that was not requested after initial

screening, the reviewer shall immediately advise the Multifamily

Housing Representative, who will: (a) Request, by telephone, that the

Sponsor submit the information within five (5) working days; and (b)

follow up by certified letter. Communications must be attached to the

technical review and findings memorandum. As part of this analysis, HUD

will conduct its environmental review in accordance with 24 CFR part

50.

Examples of reasons for technical processing rejection include an

ineligible Sponsor, ineligible population to be served, lack of legal

capacity, lack of site control, and unacceptable site based upon a site

visit. The Secretary will not reject an application based on technical

processing without giving notice of that rejection with all rejection

reasons, and affording the applicant an opportunity to appeal. HUD will

afford an applicant 14 calendar days from the date of HUD's written

notice to appeal a technical rejection to the HUD Office. The HUD

Office must respond within five working days to the Sponsor. The HUD

Office shall make a determination on an appeal prior to making its

selection recommendations. All applications will be either rated or

technically rejected at the end of technical processing.

Technical processing will also assure that the Sponsor has complied

with the [[Page 27615]] requirements in the civil rights certification

(24 CFR 890.265(b)(9)(i)). There must not have been an adjudication of

a civil rights violation in a civil action brought against the Sponsor

by a private individual, unless the Sponsor is operating in compliance

with a court order, or implementing a HUD-approved compliance agreement

designed to correct the areas of noncompliance. There must be no

pending civil rights suits against the Sponsor instituted by the

Department of Justice, and no pending administrative actions for civil

rights violations instituted by HUD (including a charge of

discrimination under the Fair Housing Act). There must be no

outstanding findings of noncompliance with civil rights statutes,

Executive Orders, or regulations, as a result of formal administrative

proceedings, nor any charges issued by the Secretary against the

Sponsor under the Fair Housing Act, unless the Sponsor is operating

under a conciliation or compliance agreement designed to correct the

areas of noncompliance. Moreover, there must not be a deferral of the

processing of applications from the Sponsor imposed by HUD under Title

VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, HUD's implementing regulations (24

CFR 1.8), procedures (HUD Handbook 8040.1), and the Attorney General's

Guidelines (28 CFR 50.3); or under section 504 of the Rehabilitation

Act of 1973 and HUD's implementing regulations (24 CFR 8.57), and the

Americans with Disabilities Act.

Upon completion of technical processing, all acceptable

applications will be rated according to the selection criteria in

Sec. 889.300(d) (also below in section I.D.3. of this NOFA).

Applications, submitted in response to the advertised allocation

(metropolitan and/or nonmetropolitan), which have a total score of 50

points or more will be eligible for selection and will be placed in

rank order. These applications will be selected based on rank order, to

and including the last application that can be funded out of the local

HUD Office's allocation. Local HUD Offices will no longer skip over any

applications in order to select one based on the funds remaining. HUD

Offices that have an allocation for only one area (metropolitan or

nonmetropolitan, due to limited allocations) may fund applications in

rank order from other areas in that Office that did not receive an

allocation. These selections would be made only after funding all

applications eligible in the advertised allocation area, and only for

any remaining funds. Funds remaining after these two processes are

completed will be returned to Headquarters for selecting applications

on a national rank order.

3. Selection Criteria

Applications for Section 202 capital advances that successfully

complete technical processing will be rated using the following

selection criteria:

(a) The Sponsor's ability to develop and operate the proposed

housing on a long-term basis, considering the following (60 points

maximum--55 base points plus 5 bonus points):

(1) The scope, extent, and quality of the Sponsor's experience in

providing housing or related services to those proposed to be served by

the project, and the scope of the proposed project (i.e., number of

units, services, relocation costs, development, and operation) in

relationship to the Sponsor's demonstrated development and management

capacity. (30 points);

(2) The scope, extent, and quality of the Sponsor's experience in

providing housing or related services to minority persons or families

(8 points);

(3) The scope, extent, and quality of the Sponsor's experience in

providing opportunities for minority- and women-owned business

enterprises participation (5 points); and

(4) The extent of local community support for the project and for

the Sponsor's activities, including previous experience in serving the

area where the project is to be located, and Sponsor's demonstrated

ability to enlist volunteers and raise local funds (12 points);

(5) The Sponsor's involvement of elderly persons, including

minority elderly persons, in the development of the application and its

intent to involve elderly persons, including minority elderly persons,

in the development of the project (5 bonus points);

(b) The need for supportive housing for the elderly in the area to

be served and the suitability of the site, considering (25 points

maximum):

(1) The extent of the need for the project in the area based on a

determination by the HUD Office. HUD will make this determination by

considering the Sponsor's evidence of need in the area based on the

guidelines in Sec. 889.270(b)(17), as well as other economic,

demographic, and housing market data available to the HUD Office. The

data could include the availability of existing Federally assisted

housing (HUD and ARHEDS) (e.g., considering availability and vacancy

rates of public housing) for the elderly and current occupancy in such

facilities, Federally assisted housing for the elderly under

construction or for which fund reservations have been issued, and in

accordance with an agreement between HUD and the ARHEDS, comments from

the ARHEDS on the demand for additional assisted housing and the

possible harm to existing projects in the same housing market area (8

points).

(2) The proximity or accessibility of the site to shopping, medical

facilities, transportation, places of worship, recreational facilities,

places of employment, and other necessary services to the intended

occupants; adequacy of utilities and streets; freedom of the site from

adverse environmental conditions; compliance with site and neighborhood

standards (10 points); and

(3) Suitability of the site from the standpoint of promoting a

greater choice of housing opportunities for minority elderly persons/

families (7 points).

(c) Adequacy of the provision of supportive services and of the

proposed facility, considering (20 points maximum):

(1) The extent to which the proposed design will meet the special

physical needs of elderly persons (3 points);

(2) The extent to which the proposed size and unit mix of the

housing will enable the Sponsor to manage and operate the housing

efficiently and ensure that the provision of supportive services will

be accomplished in an economical fashion (4 points);

(3) The extent to which the proposed design of the housing will

accommodate the provision of supportive services that are expected to

be needed, initially and over the useful life of the housing, by the

category or categories of elderly persons the housing is intended to

serve (3 points);

(4) The extent to which the proposed supportive services meet the

identified needs of the residents (5 points); and

(5) The extent to which the Sponsor demonstrated that the

identified supportive services will be provided on a consistent, long-

term basis (5 points); and

(d) The project will be located within the boundaries of a

Federally-designated Empowerment Zone, Urban Supplemental Empowerment

Zone, Enterprise Community, or Urban Enhanced Enterprise Community (5

bonus points). The maximum number of points an application can earn

without bonus points is 100. An application can earn an additional

bonus points for a maximum total of 125 points.

II. Application Process

All applications for Section 202 capital advances submitted by

eligible Sponsors must be filed with the appropriate HUD Office

receiving an allocation and must meet the [[Page 27616]] requirements

of this NOFA. No application will be accepted after 4 p.m. local time

on July 24, 1995, unless that date and time is extended by a Notice

published in the Federal Register. Applications received after that

date and time will not be accepted, even if postmarked by the deadline

date. Applications submitted by facsimile are not acceptable.

Immediately upon publication of this NOFA, if names have not

already been provided to the Multifamily Housing Clearinghouse, HUD

Offices shall notify elderly and minority media, all persons and

organizations on their mailing lists, minority and other organizations

within their jurisdiction involved in housing and community

development, and groups with special interest in housing for elderly

households.

Organizations interested in applying for a section 202 capital

advance should contact the Multifamily Housing Clearinghouse at 1-800-

685-8470 for a copy of the application package, and advise the HUD

Office whether they wish to attend the workshop described below. HUD

encourages minority organizations to participate in this program as

Sponsors. HUD Offices will advise all organizations on their mailing

list of the date, time, and place of workshops at which HUD will

explain the Section 202 program.

HUD strongly recommends that prospective applicants attend the

local HUD Office workshop. Interested persons with disabilities should

contact the HUD Office to assure that any necessary arrangements can be

made to enable their attendance and participation in the workshop.

While strongly urged to do so, if Sponsors cannot attend a workshop,

they can obtain Application Packages from the Multifamily Housing

Clearinghouse (see address and telephone number in the ``Application

Package'' section of this NOFA, above). Contact the appropriate HUD

Office with any questions regarding the submission of applications.

At the workshops, HUD will explain application procedures and

requirements. HUD will also address concerns such as local market

conditions, building codes, historic preservation, floodplain

management, displacement and relocation, zoning, and housing costs.

III. Application Submission Requirements

A. Application

Each application shall include all of the information, materials,

forms, and exhibits listed in section III.B., below (with the exception

of applications submitted by Sponsors selected for a Section 202 fund

reservation within the last three funding cycles), and must be indexed

and tabbed. Previously selected Section 202 Sponsors are not required

to submit the information described in B.2.(a), (b), and (c), below

(Exhibits 2.a., b., and c. of the application), which are the articles

of incorporation, (or other organizational documents), by-laws, and the

IRS tax exemption, respectively. If there has been a change in any of

the eligibility documents since its previous HUD approval, the Sponsor

must submit the updated information in its application. The local HUD

Office will base its determination of the eligibility of a new Sponsor

for a reservation of Section 202 capital advance funds on the

information provided in the application. HUD Offices will verify a

Sponsor's indication of previous HUD approval by checking the project

number and approval status with the appropriate HUD Office.

In addition to this relief of paperwork burden in preparing

applications, applicants will be able to use information and exhibits

previously prepared for prior applications under Section 202, Section

811, or other funding programs. Examples of exhibits that may be

readily adapted or amended to decrease the burden of application

preparation include, among others, those on previous participation in

the Section 202 or Section 811 programs, applicant experience in

provision of housing and services, supportive services plan, community

ties, and experience serving minorities.

B. General Application Requirements

1. Form HUD-92015-CA, Application for Section 202 Supportive

Housing Capital Advance.

2. Evidence of each Sponsor's legal status as a private, nonprofit

organization or nonprofit consumer cooperative, including the

following:

(a) Articles of Incorporation, constitution, or other

organizational documents;

(b) By-laws;

(c) IRS tax exemption ruling (this must be submitted by all

Sponsors, including churches). A consumer cooperative that is tax

exempt under State law, has never been liable for payment of Federal

income taxes, and does not pay patronage dividends may be exempt from

the requirement set out in the previous sentence if it is not eligible

for tax exemption. Under previous funding rounds, the above provision

was also true for nonprofit organizations organized in Puerto Rico and

Guam. HUD has now learned that nonprofits in Puerto Rico and Guam may

apply and be granted IRS section 501(c)(3) tax exemption rulings.

Therefore, to the extent permitted within the application period for

this NOFA, Sponsors should pursue a tax exemption ruling under

501(c)(3). If a Sponsor is unable, after using its best efforts, to

secure such a ruling, it may use the regulatory exemption described in

this paragraph (c), above.

Note: SPONSORS WHO HAVE RECEIVED A SECTION 202 FUND RESERVATION

WITHIN THE LAST THREE FUNDING CYCLES ARE NOT REQUIRED TO SUBMIT THE

DOCUMENTS DESCRIBED IN (a), (b), and (c), ABOVE. INSTEAD, SPONSORS

MUST SUBMIT THE PROJECT NUMBER OF THE LATEST APPLICATION AND THE HUD

OFFICE TO WHICH IT WAS SUBMITTED. IF THERE HAVE BEEN ANY

MODIFICATIONS OR ADDITIONS TO THE SUBJECT DOCUMENTS, INDICATE SUCH,

AND SUBMIT THE NEW MATERIAL.

(d) Resolution of the board, duly certified by an officer, that no

officer or director of the Sponsor or Owner has or will have any

financial interest in any contract with the Owner or in any firm or

corporation that has or will have a contract with the Owner and that

includes a current listing of all duly qualified and sitting officers

and directors by title, and the beginning and ending date of each

person's term.

3. Sponsor's purpose, community ties, and experience, including the

following:

(a) A description of Sponsor's purposes and activities, ties to the

community, and minority support, and how long the Sponsor has been in

existence (include any additional related information);

(b) A description of Sponsor's housing and/or supportive services

experience. The description should include any rental housing projects

and/or medical facilities, sponsored, owned, and operated by the

Sponsor, the Sponsor's past or current involvement in any programs

other than housing that demonstrates the Sponsor's management

capabilities and experience, and the Sponsor's experience in serving

the elderly and/or families and minorities;

(c) A description of Sponsor's experience in contracting with

minority- and women-owned businesses including a summary of the total

amount awarded in each of the two categories for the preceding three

years, and the percentage that amount represents of all contracts

awarded by the Sponsor in the relevant time period;

(d) A certified Board Resolution, acknowledging responsibilities of

sponsorship, long-term support of the project(s), willingness of

Sponsor to [[Page 27617]] assist the Owner to develop, own, manage, and

provide appropriate services in connection with the proposed project,

and that it reflects the will of its membership. Also, evidence, in the

form of a certified Board Resolution, of the Sponsor's willingness to

fund the estimated start-up expenses, the Minimum Capital Investment

(one-half of one percent of the HUD-approved capital advance, not to

exceed $10,000, if nonaffiliated with a National Sponsor; one-half of

one percent of the HUD-approved capital advance, not to exceed $25,000,

for all other Sponsors; see Sec. 889.250), and the estimated cost of

any amenities or features (and operating costs related thereto) that

would not be covered by the approved capital advance.

(e) Description, if applicable, of the Sponsor's efforts to involve

elderly persons, including minority elderly persons, in the development

of the application, as well as its intent to involve elderly persons in

the development of the project.

4. Project information, including the following:

(a) Evidence of need for supportive housing. Such evidence would

include a description of the category or categories of elderly persons

the housing is intended to serve and evidence demonstrating sustained

effective demand for supportive housing for that population in the

market area to be served, taking into consideration the occupancy and

vacancy conditions in existing Federally assisted housing for the

elderly (HUD and ARHEDS; e.g., public housing); State or local data on

the limitations in activities of daily living among the elderly in the

area; aging in place in existing assisted rentals; trends in

demographic changes in elderly population and households; the numbers

of income eligible elderly households by size, tenure, and housing

condition, the types of supportive services arrangements currently

available in the area and the use of such services as evidenced by data

from local social service agencies or agencies on aging.

(b) Description of the project, including the following:

(1) Narrative description of the building design, including a

description of any special design features and community space, and how

this design will facilitate the delivery of services in an economical

fashion and accommodate the changing needs of the residents over the

next 10-20 years.

(2) Describe whether and how the project will promote energy

efficiency, and, if applicable, innovative construction or

rehabilitation methods or technologies to be used that will promote

efficient construction.

(c) Evidence of site control and permissive zoning.

(1) Evidence that the Sponsor has entered into a legally binding

option agreement to buy or lease the proposed site; or has a copy of

the contract of sale for the site, a deed, long-term leasehold, a

request with all supporting documentation, submitted either prior to or

with the Application for Capital Advance, for a partial release of a

site covered by a mortgage under a HUD program, or other evidence of

legal ownership of the site (including properties to be acquired from

the Resolution Trust Corporation). The option agreement period must

extend through the end of the current fiscal year and contain a renewal

provision so that the option can be renewed for at least an additional

six months. The Sponsor must also identify any restrictive covenants,

including reverter clauses. In the case of a site to be acquired from a

public body, evidence that the public body possesses clear title to the

site, and has entered into a legally binding agreement to lease or

convey the site to the Sponsor after it receives and accepts a notice

of Section 202 capital advance and identification of any restrictive

covenants, including reverter clauses. However, in localities where HUD

determines the time constraints of the funding round will not permit

all of the required official actions (e.g., approval of Community

Planning Boards) that are necessary to convey publicly-owned sites, a

letter in the application from the mayor or director of the appropriate

local agency indicating approval of conveyance of the site contingent

upon the necessary approval action is acceptable and may be approved by

the HUD Office if it has satisfactory experience with timely conveyance

of sites from that public body. In such cases, documentation shall also

include a copy of the public body's evidence of ownership and

identification of any restrictive covenants, including reverter

clauses. For properties to be acquired from the RTC, include a copy of

the RTC prepared Transaction Screen Checklist or Phase I Environmental

Site Assessment, and applicable documentation, per the RTC

Environmental Guidelines.

Note: A PROPOSED PROJECT SITE MAY NOT BE ACQUIRED OR OPTIONED

FROM A GENERAL CONTRACTOR (OR ITS AFFILIATE) THAT WILL CONSTRUCT THE

SECTION 202 PROJECT OR FROM ANY OTHER DEVELOPMENT TEAM MEMBER.

(2) Evidence that the project as proposed is permissible under

applicable zoning ordinances or regulations, or a statement of the

proposed action required to make the proposed project permissible and

the basis for belief that the proposed action will be completed

successfully before the submission of the commitment application (e.g.,

a summary of the results of any recent requests for rezoning on land in

similar zoning classifications and the time required for such rezoning,

preliminary indications of acceptability from zoning bodies, etc.).

(3) Narrative description of site and area surrounding the site,

characteristics of neighborhood, how the site will promote greater

housing opportunities for minorities, and any other information that

affects the suitability of the site for the elderly.

(4) A map showing the location of the site and the racial

composition of the neighborhood, with the area of racial concentration

delineated.

(5) A Transaction Screen Process, in accordance with the American

Society for Testing and Material (ASTM) Standards E 1528-93 and E 1527-

93, as amended. If the completion of the Transaction Screen

Questionnaire results in either a ``yes'' or ``unknown'' response,

further study is required, and the Sponsor must complete a Phase I

Environmental Site Assessment in accordance with the ASTM and submit it

with the application. If the Phase I study indicates the possible

presence of contamination and/or hazards, further study must be

undertaken. At this point, the Sponsor must decide whether to continue

with this site or choose another site. Should the Sponsor choose

another site, the same environmental site assessment procedure

identified above must be followed for that site. Since all Transaction

Screen processes and Phase I studies must be completed and submitted

with the application, it is important that the Sponsor start the site

assessment process as soon after the publication of this NOFA as

possible.

If the Sponsor chooses to continue with the original site, then it

must undertake a detailed Phase II Environmental Site Assessment by an

appropriate professional.

Note: THIS COULD BE AN EXPENSIVE UNDERTAKING. THE COST OF THE

STUDY WILL BE BORNE BY THE SPONSOR IF THE APPLICATION IS NOT

SELECTED.

If the Phase II Assessment reveals site contamination the extent of

the contamination, and a plan for clean-up of the site must be

submitted to the local HUD Office. The plan for clean-up must

[[Page 27618]] include a contract for remediation of the problem(s) and

an approval letter from the applicable Federal, State, and/or local

agency with jurisdiction over the site. In order for the application to

be considered for review under this FY 1995 funding, this information

would have to be submitted to the local HUD Office no later than August

16, 1995.

(d) Provision of supportive services and proposed facility.

(1) A detailed description of the supportive services proposed to

be provided to the anticipated occupancy.

(2) Form HUD 92013E, Supplemental Application Processing Form--

Housing for the Elderly. Identify all supportive services, if any, to

be provided to the persons occupying such housing.

(3) A description of public or private sources of assistance that

reasonably could be expected to fund the proposed services.

(4) The manner in which such services will be provided to such

persons (i.e., on or off-site), including whether a service coordinator

will facilitate the adequate provision of such services, and how the

services will meet the identified needs of the residents.

5. A list of the applications, if any, the Sponsor has submitted or

is planning to submit to any other HUD Office in response to this NOFA

or the NOFA for Supportive Housing for Persons with Disabilities

(published elsewhere in today's Federal Register). Indicate by HUD

Office, the proposed location by city and State, and the number of

units requested for each application. Include a list of all FY 1994 and

prior year projects to which the Sponsor(s) is a party, identified by

project number and HUD Office, which have not been finally closed.

6. HUD-2880, Applicant/Recipient Disclosure/Update Report,

including Social Security Numbers and Employee Identification Numbers.

7. E.O. 12372. A certification that the Sponsor has submitted a

copy of its applications, if required, to the State agency (single

point of contact) for State review in accordance with Executive Order

12372.

8. A statement that (a) identifies all persons (families,

individuals, businesses, and nonprofit organizations), identified by

race/minority group, and status as owners or tenants, occupying the

property on the date of submission of the application for a capital

advance; (b) indicates the estimated cost of relocation payments and

other services; and (c) identifies the staff organization that will

carry out the relocation activities.

Note: IF ANY OF THE RELOCATION COSTS WILL BE FUNDED FROM SOURCES

OTHER THAN THE SECTION 202 CAPITAL ADVANCE, THE SPONSOR MUST PROVIDE

EVIDENCE OF A FIRM COMMITMENT OF THESE FUNDS. WHEN EVALUATING

APPLICATIONS, HUD WILL CONSIDER THE TOTAL COST OF PROPOSALS (I.E.,

COST OF SITE ACQUISITION, RELOCATION, CONSTRUCTION AND OTHER PROJECT

COSTS).

9. SF-424. A certification on SF-424, Application for Federal

Assistance, that the Sponsor(s) is not delinquent on the repayment of

any Federal debt.

10. Disclosure of Lobbying Activities. If the amount applied for is

greater than $100,000, the certification with regard to lobbying

required by 24 CFR part 87 must be included. If the amount applied for

is greater than $100,000, and the applicant has made or has agreed to

make any payment using nonappropriated funds for lobbying activity, as

described in 24 CFR part 87, the submission must also include SF-LLL,

Disclosure of Lobbying Activities. The applicant determines if the

submission of the SF-LLL form is applicable.

11. Sponsor Certifications.

(a) A certification of the Sponsor(s)' intent to comply with

section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 (29 U.S.C. 794) and the

implementing regulations at 24 CFR Part 8; the Fair Housing Act (42

U.S.C. 3600-3619) and the implementing regulations at 24 CFR Parts 100,

108, 109, and 110; Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (42 U.S.C.

2000d) and the implementing regulations at 24 CFR Part 1; section 3 of

the Housing and Urban Development Act of 1968 (12 U.S.C. 1701u) and the

implementing regulations at 24 CFR Part 135; the Age Discrimination Act

of 1975 (42 U.S.C. 6101-6107) and the implementing regulations at 24

CFR Part 146; Executive Order 11246 (as amended) and the implementing

regulations at 41 CFR Chapter 60; the regulations implementing

Executive Order 11063 (Equal Opportunity in Housing) at 24 CFR Part

107; the Americans with Disabilities Act (42 U.S.C. 12101 et seq.) to

the extent applicable; the affirmative fair housing marketing

requirements of 24 CFR part 200, subpart M and the implementing

regulations at 24 CFR part 108; and other applicable Federal, State,

and local laws prohibiting discrimination and promoting equal

opportunity.

(b) A certification that the Sponsor(s) will comply with the

requirements of the Drug-Free Workplace Act.

(c) A certification that the project will comply with HUD's design

and cost standards; the Uniform Federal Accessibility Standards and

HUD's implementing regulations at 24 CFR part 40; Section 504 of the

Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and HUD's implementing regulations at 24 CFR

part 8; and for covered multifamily dwellings designed and constructed

for first occupancy after March 13, 1991, the design and construction

requirements of the Fair Housing Act and HUD's implementing regulations

at 24 CFR part 100; and the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990.

(d) A certification by the Sponsor(s) that it will comply (or has

complied) with the acquisition and relocation requirements of the

Uniform Relocation Assistance and Real Property Acquisition Policies

Act of 1970, as amended (URA), implemented by regulations at 49 CFR

part 24, and 24 CFR 889.265(e).

(e) A certification by the Sponsor(s) that it will form an Owner

(as defined in 24 CFR 889.105) after the issuance of the capital

advance, will cause the Owner to file a request for determination of

eligibility and a request for capital advance under Sec. 889.300, and

will provide sufficient resources to the Owner to insure the

development and long-term operation of the project, including

capitalizing the Owner at conditional commitment processing in an

amount sufficient to meet its obligations in connection with the

project.

(f) Certification of Consistency with the Consolidated Plan (Plan)

for the jurisdiction in which the proposed project will be located must

be submitted by the Sponsor (see NOTE below if the jurisdiction does

not have an approved Plan). The certification must be made by the unit

of general local government if it is required to have, or has, a

complete Plan. Otherwise the certification may be made by the State, or

if the project will be located in a unit of general local government

authorized to use an abbreviated strategy, by the unit of general local

government if it is willing to prepare such a Plan.

All certifications must be made by the public official responsible

for submitting the Plan to HUD. The certifications must be submitted as

part of the application by the application submission deadline set

forth in this NOFA, except as provided in the next paragraph. The Plan

regulations are published in 24 CFR part 91.

Notes: (1) If the jurisdiction's plan program year has not yet

started, the jurisdiction may certify consistency with their FY 1994

CHAS in lieu of the plan. A notice published in the February 6, 1995

Federal Register (60 FR 6967) established that a jurisdiction's

previously approved CHAS will remain in effect until the start date

of the jurisdiction's new consolidated program year, at which

[[Page 27619]] point the jurisdiction's new plan would take effect.

The notice also allows jurisdictions to use their annual plan for FY

1994 as extended by the February 6, 1995 Federal Register notice for

the purpose of certifications of consistency.

(2) Sponsors of projects in Oklahoma may submit the

certification of consistency with the consolidated plan after the

application deadline date but no later than August 25, 1995.

IV. Other Matters

A. Environmental Impact

A Finding of No Significant Impact with respect to the environment

has been made in accordance with HUD regulations that implement section

102(2)(C) of the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (42 U.S.C.

4332). The Finding of No Significant Impact is available for public

inspection during business hours in the Office of the Rules Docket

Clerk, Office of General Counsel, Room 10276, Department of Housing and

Urban Development, 451 Seventh Street, SW, Washington, DC 20410.

B. Federalism Executive Order

The General Counsel, as the Designated Official under section 6(a)

of Executive Order 12612, Federalism, has determined that this NOFA

does not have substantial direct effects on States or their political

subdivisions, or on the relationship between the Federal government and

the States, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities among

the various levels of government. This NOFA merely notifies the public

of the availability of capital advances and project rental assistance

for supportive housing for the elderly.

C. Family Executive Order

The General Counsel, as the Designated Official under Executive

Order 12606, the Family, has determined that this NOFA does not have

the potential for significant impact on family formation, maintenance,

or general well-being. This NOFA may have a positive though indirect

effect on families, to the extent that families will benefit from the

provision of supportive housing for elderly persons. Since any effect

on families is beneficial, this NOFA is not subject to review under the

Order.

D. Accountability in the Provision of HUD Assistance

HUD has promulgated a final rule to implement section 102 of the

Department of Housing and Urban Development Reform Act of 1989 (HUD

Reform Act). The final rule is codified at 24 CFR part 12. Section 102

contains a number of provisions that are designed to ensure greater

accountability and integrity in the provision of certain types of

assistance administered by HUD. On January 14, 1992, HUD published in

the Federal Register (57 FR 1942) additional information that gave the

public (including applicants for and recipients of HUD assistance)

further information on the implementation, public access, and

disclosure requirements of section 102. The documentation, public

access, and disclosure requirements of section 102 are applicable to

assistance awarded under this NOFA as follows:

1. Documentation and Public Access

HUD will ensure documentation and other information regarding each

application submitted pursuant to this NOFA are sufficient to indicate

the basis upon which assistance was provided or denied. This material,

including any letters of support, will be made available for public

inspection for a five-year period beginning not less than 30 days after

the award of the assistance. Material will be made available in

accordance with the Freedom of Information Act (5 U.S.C. 552) and HUD's

implementing regulations at 24 CFR part 15. In addition, HUD will

include the recipients of assistance pursuant to this NOFA in its

Federal Register notice of all recipients of HUD assistance awarded on

a competitive basis. (See 24 CFR 12.14(a) and 12.16(b), and the notice

published in the Federal Register on January 16, 1992 (57 FR 1942), for

further information on these requirements.)

2. Disclosures

HUD will make available to the public for five years all applicant

disclosure reports (HUD Form 2880) submitted in connection with this

NOFA. Update reports (also Form 2880) will be made available along with

the applicant disclosure reports, but in no case for a period less than

three years. All reports--both applicant disclosures and updates--will

be made available in accordance with the Freedom of Information Act (5

U.S.C. 552) and HUD's implementing regulations at 24 CFR part 15. (See

24 CFR subpart C, and the notice published in the Federal Register on

January 16, 1992 (57 FR 1942), for further information on these

disclosure requirements.)

E. Documentation and Public Access Requirements: HUD Reform Act

HUD will ensure that documentation and other information regarding

each application submitted pursuant to this NOFA are sufficient to

indicate the basis upon which assistance was provided or denied. This

material, including any letters of support, will be made available for

public inspection for a five-year period beginning not less than 30

days after the award of the assistance. Material will be made available

in accordance with the Freedom of Information Act (5 U.S.C. 552) and

HUD's implementing regulations at 24 CFR part 15. In addition, HUD will

include the recipients of assistance pursuant to this NOFA in its

Federal Register notice of all recipients of HUD assistance awarded on

a competitive basis. (See CFR 12.14(a) and 12.16(b), and the notice

published in the Federal Register on January 16, 1992 (57 FR 1942), for

further information on these requirements.)

F. Section 103

HUD's regulation implementing section 103 of the Department of

Housing and Urban Development Reform Act of 1989 was published May 13,

1991 (56 FR 22088) and became effective on June 12, 1991. That

regulation, codified as 24 CFR part 4, applies to the funding

competition announced today. The requirements of the rule continue to

apply until the announcement of the selection of successful applicants.

HUD employees involved in the review of applications and in the

making of funding decisions are restrained by part 4 from providing

advance information to any person (other than an authorized employee of

HUD) concerning funding decisions, or from otherwise giving any

applicant an unfair competitive advantage. Persons who apply for

assistance in this competition should confine their inquiries to the

subject areas permitted under 24 CFR part 4.

Applicants who have questions should contact the HUD Office of

Ethics (202) 708-3815 (TDD/Voice). (This is not a toll-free number.)

The Office of Ethics can provide information of a general nature to HUD

employees, as well. However, a HUD employee who has specific program

questions, such as whether particular subject matter can be discussed

with persons outside HUD, should contact his or her HUD Office Counsel,

or Headquarters counsel for the program to which the question pertains.

G. Lobbying

Section 13 of the Department of Housing and Urban Development Act

(42 U.S.C. 3537b) contains two provisions dealing with efforts to

influence HUD's decisions with respect to financial assistance. The

first imposes disclosure requirements on those who [[Page 27620]] are

typically involved in these efforts--those who pay others to influence

the award of assistance or the taking of a management action by HUD and

those who are paid to provide the influence. The second restricts the

payment of fees to those who are paid to influence the award of HUD

assistance, if the fees are tied to the number of housing units

received or are based on the amount of assistance received, or if they

are contingent upon the receipt of assistance.

Section 13 was implemented by final rule published in the Federal

Register on May 17, 1991 (56 FR 22912). If readers are involved in any

efforts to influence HUD in these ways, they are urged to read the

final rule, particularly the examples contained in Appendix A of the

rule.

Any questions regarding the rule should be directed to the

Director, Office of Ethics, Room 2158, Department of Housing and Urban

Development, 451 Seventh Street, SW, Washington, DC 20410. Telephone:

(202) 708-3815 (TDD/Voice). (This is not a toll-free number.) Forms

necessary for compliance with the rule may be obtained from the local

HUD Office.

H. Prohibition Against Lobbying Activities

The use of funds awarded under this NOFA is subject to the

disclosure requirements and prohibitions of Section 319 of the

Department of Interior and Related Agencies Appropriations Act for

Fiscal Year 1990 (31 U.S.C. 1352) (the Byrd Amendment) and the

implementing regulations at 24 CFR part 87. These authorities prohibit

recipients of Federal contracts, grants, or loans from using

appropriated funds for lobbying the executive or legislative branches

of the Federal Government in connection with a specific contract,

grant, or loan. The prohibition also covers the awarding of contracts,

grants, cooperative agreements, or loans unless the recipient has made

an acceptable certification regarding lobbying. Under 24 CFR part 87,

applicants, recipients, and subrecipients of assistance exceeding

$100,000 must certify that no Federal funds have been or will be spent

on lobbying activities in connection with the assistance.
