Office of the Assistant Secretary for

Community Planning and

Availability for Continuum of Care

Homeless Assistance; Clarification;

Supportive Housing Program (SHP);

Shelter Plus Care (S+C); Section 8

Moderate Rehabilitation Single Room

Occupancy Program for Homeless

Individuals (SRO)

AGENCY: Office of the Assistant

Secretary for Community Planning and

Development, HUD.

ACTION: Notice of funding availability

(NOFA); clarification.

SUMMARY: On March 15, 1996 (61 FR

10866), HUD published a notice

announcing the availability of fiscal

year (FY) 1996 funding for three of its

programs which assist communities in

combatting homelessness. The three

programs are: (1) Supportive Housing;

(2) Shelter Plus Care; and (3) Section 8

Moderate Rehabilitation for Single

Room Occupancy Dwellings for

Homeless Individuals. The Congress

had not yet enacted a FY 1996

appropriation for HUD at the time of

publication of the March 15, 1996 notice

of funding availability (NOFA).

Accordingly, the March 15, 1996 NOFA

set forth HUD’s estimate of the FY 1996

funding that the Congress would make

available. The Congress has since

enacted a FY 1996 appropriation for

HUD.

On May 22, 1996 (61 FR 25684), HUD

published a notice in the Federal

Register stating that $675 million in FY

1996 funds is being made available

under the March 15, 1996 NOFA.

However, since the amount made

available under the NOFA may also

include unobligated funds from

previous competitions and

deobligations or recaptures from

previous awards, the May 22, 1996

notice should have used the term

‘‘approximately $675 million.’’ This

notice, which supersedes the May 22,

1996 notice, makes the necessary

correction. For the convenience of

readers, HUD is republishing the entire

text of the May 22, 1996 notice, but

incorporating the correction made by

this notice.

DEADLINE DATES: The original

application deadline date is not

changed. All applications are due in

HUD Headquarters before midnight

Eastern Time on June 12, 1996. HUD

will treat as ineligible for consideration

applications that are received after that

deadline. Applications may not be sent

by facsimile (FAX).

ADDRESSES: For a copy of the

application package and supplemental

information please call the Community

Connections information center at 1–

800–998–9999 (voice) or 1–800–483–

2209 (TTY), or contact by internet at

funding. Also, you can purchase, for a

nominal fee, a video that walks you

through the application package and

provides general background that can be

useful in preparing your application.

The fee for the video may be waived in

cases of financial hardship. For copies

of the relevant portions of your

community’s Consolidated Plan, please

contact the local or State official

responsible for that Plan. If you need

assistance in identifying this person,

please call your local HUD Field Office.

Before close of business on the

deadline date completed applications

will be accepted at the following

Programs, Room 7270, Office of

Community Planning and Development,

Department of Housing and Urban

Development, 451 Seventh Street, S.W.,

Washington, DC 20410, Attention:

Continuum of Care Funding. On the

deadline date, hand-carried applications

will be received at the South lobby of

the Department of Housing and Urban

Development at the above address. Two

copies of the application must also be

sent to the HUD Field Office serving the

State in which the applicant’s projects

are located. A list of Field Offices

appears in an appendix of the March 15,

1996 NOFA. Field Office copies must be

received by the application deadline as

well, but a determination that an

application was received on time will be

made solely on receipt of the

application at HUD Headquarters in

Washington.

ELECTRONIC SUBMISSION: In addition to

submitting the application narratives

and forms in the traditional manner,

you may also include an electronic

version of your materials on a 31⁄2′′

computer diskette. The inclusion of the

computer version this year is strictly an

optional supplement to the standard

application.

If you use HUD’s Consolidated

Planning software to generate

supplemental maps, charts, or project

lists, please include these files on the

diskette as well.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

A. The March 15, 1996 NOFA

On March 15, 1996 (61 FR 10866),

HUD published a NOFA announcing the

1996 homeless assistance competition to

help communities develop Continuum

of Care systems to assist homeless

persons. These funds are available

under three HUD programs to create

community systems for combatting

homelessness. The three programs are:

(1) Supportive Housing; (2) Shelter Plus

Care; and (3) Section 8 Moderate

Rehabilitation for Single Room

Occupancy Dwellings for Homeless

Individuals. The March 15, 1996 NOFA

contained information concerning the

Continuum of Care approach, eligible

applicants, eligible activities,

application requirements, and

application processing.

Congress had not yet enacted a FY

1996 appropriation for HUD at the time

of publication of the March 15, 1996

NOFA. Accordingly, the March 15, 1996

NOFA set forth HUD’s estimate of the

FY 1996 funding that the Congress

would make available. HUD published

the NOFA in order to give potential

applicants adequate time to prepare

applications. The purpose of this notice

is to publish the final FY 1996 amount

made available under the March 15,

1996 NOFA.

B. Final FY 1996 Funding Amount

Under the March 15, 1996 NOFA

On April 26, 1996, the President

signed the Omnibus Consolidated

Rescissions and Appropriations Act of

1996 (OCRA) (Pub. L. 104–134,

approved April 26, 1996). The OCRA

makes $823,000,000 in FY 1996 funds

available for HUD’s homeless assistance

grants programs. Therefore,

approximately $675 million is being

made available under the March 15,

1996 NOFA. Of the remaining amount,

HUD is making $115 million available

for the Emergency Shelter Grants

Program, and $33 million for the

renewal of previously awarded grants.

C. Revised Pro Rata Need Estimates

Appendix B to the March 15, 1996

NOFA set forth two columns of pro rata

need estimates for use by eligible

jurisdictions. These figures were based

on different HUD estimates of the FY

1996 funding amount that the Congress

would make available. Estimate A,

which provides approximately $675

million, was based on Congressional

action authorizing interim spending,

referred to as a Continuing Resolution.

Estimate B, which totalled $925 million,

reflected the Administration’s FY 1996

Budget request (published February
Federal Register / Vol. 61, No. 107 / Monday, June 3, 1996 / Notices 27933

1995). As explained above, the final FY

1996 amount made available under the

March 15, 1996 NOFA is approximately

$675 million. Applicants should

therefore utilize Estimate A in

determining their relative need

estimates. Estimate B should be

disregarded.
