Paperwork Reduction Act Statement

The information collection

requirements contained in this notice

were submitted to the Office of

Management and Budget for review

under the provisions of the Paperwork

Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501–

3520) and have been assigned OMB

I. Authority; Purpose, Amount

Allocated; and Eligibility

(A) Authority

(1) For Multifamily Assisted Housing

Developments. Section 808 of the

Cranston-Gonzalez National Affordable

Housing Act (Pub. L. 101–625, approved

November 28, 1990), as amended by

sections 671, 674, 676, and 677 of the

Housing and Community Development

Act of 1992 (Pub. L. 102–550, approved

October 28, 1992), provides authority

for service coordinators in multifamily

assisted housing developments.

(2) For PHAs. Section 673 of the

Housing and Community Development

Act of 1992 (42 U.S.C. 1437g) provides

that PHAs may receive additional

annual contributions for any

development to cover the cost of

employing or otherwise retaining the

services of a service coordinator.
Federal Register / Vol. 63, No. 104 / Monday, June 1, 1998 / Notices 29875

(B) Purpose

The Service Coordinator Program

provides funding for the employment

and support of service coordinators in

public and assisted housing

developments designated for the elderly

and persons with disabilities. Service

coordinators help residents obtain

supportive services from the community

that are needed to enable independent

living and aging in place.

A service coordinator is a social

service staff person hired or contracted

by the development’s owner/

management company or the PHA. The

coordinator is responsible for assuring

that elderly residents, especially those

who are frail or at risk, and those nonelderly residents with disabilities are

linked to the supportive services they

need to continue living independently

in that development. The service

coordinator, however, may not require

any elderly or disabled family to accept

the supportive services.

(C) Amounts Allocated

This NOFA makes available a total of

$13,000,000 in FY 1998 funding from

the $55,000,000 earmark in the

Community Development Block Grants

Fund account, 110 Stat. 2887,

September 26, 1997. This $13,000,000,

which will be equally allocated to

programs administered by PIH and the

Office of Housing is from the amount

appropriated for public and assisted

housing self-sufficiency programs. This

$13,000,000 is being made available to

provide service coordinators for

conventional public housing, Section 8

existing project-based or moderate

rehabilitation developments, and 202,

202/8, 221(d)(3) and 236 developments.

All requests must be for eligible

developments which are housing for the

elderly and persons with disabilities.

(1) Exhaustion of Public Housing

Service Coordinator Program Funds.

When the funding for public housing

developments under the Service

Coordinator Program is exhausted,

PHAs may use other eligible funds such

as PIH grants (e.g., Comprehensive

Grants, Economic Development and

Supportive Services (EDSS) funds, or

other operational funds) to employ a

service coordinator.

(2) Exhaustion of Multifamily Assisted

Housing Service Coordinator Program

Funds. When the funding for

multifamily assisted housing

developments under the Service

Coordinator Program is exhausted,

owners may request processing under

Housing’s Management Agent

Handbook 4381.5, REV–2, CHG–4,

Chapter 8. This Handbook provides

procedures for requesting funding for a

coordinator using residual receipts, the

budget-based rent increase process,

contract rents adjusted by the Annual

Adjustment Factor (AAF) or the Project

Rental Assistance Contract (PRAC).

Section 8 approvals must be consistent

with current policy.

(3) Renewal of Grants. All grants

funded under this NOFA are renewable,

subject to the availability of funds.

(D) Eligibility

(1) General. PHAs and owners of

eligible multifamily assisted housing

developments may request Service

Coordinator Program funding. To be

eligible, a development must have frail

or at-risk elderly residents and/or nonelderly residents with disabilities who

together total at least 25 percent of the

building’s residents (not applicable to

expiring FY 1995 Elderly Service

Coordinator Grants).

(2) Single applicants. A PHA or an

assisted housing owner may submit an

application for one or more

developments that it owns.

(3) Joint Applications.

(a) Two or more owners and/or PHAs

may join together to share a service

coordinator and so submit joint

applications. In the past, joint

applications have been used by small

developments who joined together to

meet the minimum number of units

required for eligibility.

(b) A PHA and an assisted housing

owner may submit a joint application

and share a service coordinator among

developments. The application will be

entered into the program lottery

corresponding to the organizational type

of the designated lead applicant (i.e., if

the lead applicant is a PHA, the joint

application will be entered in the PIH

lottery and all developments in that

application will be funded through

PIH’s allotment of funds).

(4) Public Housing Eligibility Criteria.

(a) Eligible developments must be

conventional public housing, including

those with expiring FY 1995 Elderly

Service Coordinator grants;

(b) An eligible development (or group

of developments) having at least 50

units. A sole or joint application with

two or more developments having at

least 50 rental units together may also

apply. (Not applicable to expiring FY

1995 Elderly Service Coordinator

grants.)

(c) A PHA must have a passing Public

Housing Management Assessment

Program (PHMAP) score. In the case of

a PHA that is designated as ‘‘troubled,’’

as a result of its PHMAP score, the PHA

must provide certification that a

Contract Administrator (or equivalent

organization qualified to administer

Federal grants) will be administering the

proposed Service Coordinator Program

grant. (A Contract Administrator is not

needed to administer an extended FY

1995 Elderly Service Coordinator grant.)

(d) To renew an FY 1995 Elderly

Service Coordinator Grant, the PHA

must demonstrate that it has spent 80

percent (80%) of grant funds by the

application deadline date, and has field

office approval of satisfactory

performance.

(e) By the date of execution of the

grant agreement an applicant must have

secured online access to the internet as

a means to communicate with HUD on

grant matters and shall have provided at

least 75 percent (75%) of the required

Multifamily Tenant Characteristics

System (MTCS) occupancy data to HUD.

(f) An applicant may not have

unresolved, outstanding Inspector

General audit findings.

following criteria:

(a) Are one of the following program

types: Section 202 and 202/8, existing

Section 8 project-based and moderate

field office approval of satisfactory

performance.

(2) A PHA may not apply for Service

Coordinator Program funding for any

development that has a service

coordinator funded by an EDSS grant.

(3) A PHA that has not met its

such grants.

(7) Assisted housing applicants may

NOT have outstanding contract

violations of a contractual or regulatory

nature.

(8) Any applicant must comply with

all applicable statutory and regulatory

fair housing and civil rights laws as

enumerated in 24 CFR 5.105(a). If the

applicant has been charged with a

violation of the Fair Housing Act by the

Department or the Department of Justice

or if an applicant has received a letter

of noncompliance findings under Title

VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964,

Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act, or

Section 109 of the Housing and

Community Development Act, the

applicant is not eligible to apply for

funding under this NOFA until the

applicant resolves such charge or letter

of findings to the satisfaction of the

Department.

(G) Ineligible Activities

(1) PHAs and assisted housing owners

cannot use funds available under this

NOFA to extend or replace an expiring

Service Coordinator Program grant or

contract, except as provided under

Section II(C) of this NOFA.

(2) Applicants may not use these

monies to replace current funding from

other sources for a service coordinator

or for some other staff person who

performs service coordinator functions.

(3) CHSP grantees may not use these

funds to meet statutory program match

requirements and may not use these

funds to replace current CHSP program

funds to continue the employment of a

service coordinator.

(H) Grant Term

HUD will award new funds as three

year grants, renewable subject to the

availability of funds. Any renewals of

existing FY 1995 PIH service

coordinator grants will be for ONE year,

consistent with existing renewal policy.

II. Application Selection Process

(A) General

Service Coordinator Program grant

funds will not be awarded through a

rating and ranking process. Instead,

HUD will hold lotteries for all

approvable applications forwarded from

appropriate Multifamily HUB or

Multifamily Program Center, or Public

Housing Field Office (a list of these

offices is found in Attachment A to this

notice).

(B) Threshold Eligibility Review

(1) HUD Public Housing and

Multifamily Field Office staff will

review applications for completeness

and compliance with the eligibility

criteria set forth in Section I of this

NOFA. Field Office staff will forward an

application to Headquarters for entry

into the lotteries if the application was

received by the deadline date, meets all

eligibility criteria, proposes reasonable

costs for eligible activities, and includes

all technical corrections by the

designated deadline date.

(2) ‘‘Reasonable costs’’ are further

discussed in the application kit, but are

generally those that are consistent with

salaries and administrative costs of

similar programs in the jurisdiction of

the HUD Field Office.

(C) Set-Aside

PIH will first fund any expiring FY

1995 Elderly Service Coordinator grants

which meet the stipulations of Section

I(D)(4) of this NOFA, except as

otherwise specified. All remaining PIH

funds will then go to the general PIH

lottery (see Section II(D) of this NOFA,

which follows).

(D) Lotteries

HUD will hold one separate lottery for

each respective group of applicants.

HUD staff will randomly select

applications through these lotteries and

will continue the process until each

Office’s allotment of approximately $6.5

million is exhausted.

(E) Pooling of Excess Funds

At the conclusion of the two lotteries,

any remaining funds from both the PIH

and assisted housing allocations will be

pooled. Pooling these excess funds will

allow HUD to determine if one or more

additional grants are possible. In order

to use as many of the residual funds as

possible, HUD will conduct an

additional lottery for any unfunded

applicants (i.e., from both PIH and

assisted housing) requesting a grant in

an amount equal to or less than the

pooled amount.

III. Application Submission

Requirements

(A) General

Each application must be submitted

in one original and two copies.

Applications may not be sent by

facsimile (FAX).

(9) For PHAs with expiring FY 1995

Elderly Service Coordinator grants,
Federal Register / Vol. 63, No. 104 / Monday, June 1, 1998 / Notices 29877

evidence of grant expenditures that total

at least 80 percent (80%) of grant funds

by the application deadline date;

(10) Lead agency letter format (if

appropriate);

(11) For PHAs: Certification of NonDuplication of Funding Request;

(12) Certification from an

Independent Public Accountant or the

cognizant government auditor stating

(13) Each applicant must also submit

signed copies of the following forms,

assurances and certifications:

a. Standard form (SF) 424, Standard

(C) Corrections to Deficient Applications

After the application due date, HUD

may not, consistent with 24 CFR part 4,

subpart B, consider unsolicited

information from an applicant. HUD

may contact an applicant, however, to

clarify an item in the application or to

correct technical deficiencies.

Applicants should note, however, that

HUD may not seek clarification of items

or responses that improve the

substantive quality of the applicant’s

response to any eligibility or selection

criterion. Examples of curable technical

deficiencies include failure to submit

proper certifications or failure to submit

the application containing an original

signature by an authorized official. In

each case HUD will notify the

applicants by facsimile or by return

receipt requested. Applicants must

submit clarifications or corrections of

technical deficiencies in accordance

with the information provided by HUD

within 14 calendar days of the date of

receipt of the HUD notification. If the

deficiency is not corrected within this

time period, HUD will reject the

application as incomplete.

IV. Promoting Comprehensive

Approaches to Housing and Community

Development

HUD believes the best approach for

addressing community problems is

through a community-based process that

provides a comprehensive response to

identified needs. In this spirit, it may be

helpful for applicants under this NOFA

to be aware of other related HUD

NOFAs that have been published or are

expected to be published this fiscal

year. On March 31, 1998 (63 FR 15490),

HUD published in the Federal Register

its SuperNOFA on Housing and

Community Development Programs,

which covered nineteen HUD Housing

and Community Development programs.

The second SuperNOFA and

consolidated application process, which

covered ten of HUD’s Economic

Development and Empowerment

Programs, was published in the Federal

Register on April 30, 1998 (63 FR

23876). The third SuperNOFA and

consolidated application process, also

published in the Federal Register on

April 30, 1998 (63 FR 23988), covered

six of HUD’s Targeted Housing and

Homeless Assistance Programs.

In addition to the three SuperNOFAs,

HUD also published on April 30, 1998

(63 FR 23958) a consolidated NOFA and

application process (the National

SuperNOFA) for three national

competition programs: the Fair Housing

Initiatives Program national

Competition; the National Lead Hazard

Awareness Campaign; and the Housing

Counseling national Competition.

By reviewing the SuperNOFAs and

other individual NOFAs that HUD may

publish with respect to their program

purposes and the eligibility of

applicants and activities, applicants

may be able to relate the activities

proposed for funding under this NOFA

to upcoming NOFAs and the

community’s Consolidated Plan and

Analysis of Impediments to Fair

Housing Choice. Applicants and

interested parties may find out more

about HUD’s NOFAs through the HUD

web site on the Internet.

For help in obtaining a copy of your

community’s Consolidated Plan, please

contact the community development

office of your municipal government.

V. Findings and Certifications

Federalism, Executive Order 12612

The General Counsel, as the

Designated Official under section 6(a) of

Executive Order 12612, Federalism, has

determined that the policies and

procedures contained in this notice will

not have substantial direct effects on

States or their political subdivisions, or

the relationship between the federal

government and the States, or on the

distribution of power and

responsibilities among the various

levels of government. This notice

merely invites applications from

existing PHAs and assisted housing

developments for service coordinator

grants. As a result, the notice is not

subject to review under the Order.

Prohibition Against Lobbying Activities

Applicants for funding under this

SuperNOFA are subject to the

provisions of section 319 of the

Department of Interior and Related

Agencies Appropriation Act for Fiscal

Year 1991, 31 U.S.C. 1352 (the Byrd

Amendment), which prohibits

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. Applicants are required

to certify, using the certification found

at Appendix A to 24 CFR part 87, that

they will not, and have not, used

appropriated funds for any prohibited

lobbying activities. In addition,

applicants must disclose, using

Standard Form LLL, ‘‘Disclosure of

Lobbying Activities,’’ any funds, other

than Federally appropriated funds, that

will be or have been used to influence

Federal employees, members of

Congress, and congressional staff

regarding specific grants or contracts.

Tribes and tribally designated housing

entities (TDHEs) established by an

Indian tribe as a result of the exercise of

the tribe’s sovereign power are excluded

from coverage of the Byrd Amendment,

but tribes and TDHEs established under

State law are not excluded from the

statute’s coverage.)

Section 102 of the HUD Reform Act;

Documentation and Public Access

Requirements

Section 102 of the Department of

Housing and Urban Development

Reform Act of 1989 (42 U.S.C. 3545)

(HUD Reform Act) and the regulations

codified in 24 CFR part 4, subpart A,

contain a number of provisions that are

designed to ensure greater

accountability and integrity in the
29878 Federal Register / Vol. 63, No. 104 / Monday, June 1, 1998 / Notices

provision of certain types of assistance

administered by HUD. On January 14,

1992 (57 FR 1942), HUD published a

notice that also provides information on

the implementation of section 102. The

documentation, public access, and

disclosure requirements of section 102

apply to assistance awarded under this

NOFA as follows:

(1) Documentation and public access

requirements. 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 5-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 in 24 CFR part 15.

(2) Disclosures. HUD will make

available to the public for 5 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 3 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.

Publication of Recipients of HUD

Funding

HUD’s regulations at 24 CFR 4.7

provide that HUD will publish a notice

in the Federal Register on at least a

quarterly basis to notify the public of all

decisions made by the Department to

provide:

(i) Assistance subject to section 102(a)

of the HUD Reform Act; or

(ii) Assistance that is provided

through grants or cooperative

agreements on a discretionary (nonformula, non-demand) basis, but that is

not provided on the basis of a

competition.

Section 103 HUD Reform Act

HUD’s regulations implementing

section 103 of the Department of

Housing and Urban Development

Reform Act of 1989 (42 U.S.C. 3537a),

codified in 24 CFR part 4, apply to this

funding competition. The regulations

successful applicants. HUD employees

involved in the review of applications

and in the making of funding decisions

are limited by the regulations 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 or employees who have
