AP-25 Allocation Priorities – 91.320(d) Introduction Kentucky’s grant funds will be distributed throughout the state on a competitive basis for eligible activities through several methods described in the program guidelines for each program. Units of local government, nonprofit and for-profit entities will be able to apply for funding to carry out eligible activities. This distribution system allows eligible agencies to apply for funding for activities that will address the priority needs for their community. In addition, funds awarded to local communities will also address the needs addressed in the state’s Consolidated Plan. The allocation distribution in the table below is an estimate. Depending upon the types of applications received, DLG and KHC may reallocate funding between eligible activities. The distribution in the table below does not include administrative costs, contingencies for disasters, CHDO operating, and HMIS. CHDO set-aside has been included in homeowner activities, although CHDOs are eligible to apply for funding for all activities.

What are the outcome measures expected as a result of the method of distribution? Recipients must acknowledge that they will be required to submit performance measure information to DLG in to meet this reporting requirement. As part of this process, each recipient will be required to complete a Program Completion Report at closeout. Some recipients, due to the nature of their projects (housing rehab and job creation), will report annually. There are three main components of the Performance Measurement System: Objectives, Outcomes and Indicators. Each component relates to a project activity. DLG will assign one of three objectives related to the type of activity, funding source and goal/program intent. Objectives include: Suitable Living Environment Decent Housing Economic Opportunity The next step will be selection of an outcome based upon the purpose of the activity. Outcomes include: Improved Availability/Accessibility Improved Affordability Improved Sustainability In addition to selecting an objective and outcome for each project activity, certain indicators will be required to be identified and quantified. These indicators vary by program area (CERF,
Describe the process for awarding funds to state recipients and how the state will make its allocation available to units of general local government, and non-profit organizations, including community and organizations. (ESG only) Through a competitive application process, KHC will make ESG funds available to eligible non-profits and local governments from the 118 counties in Kentucky that do not receive a direct allocation of ESG as an entitlement area. All funds will be obligated to within 60 days of the date KHC enters into its funding agreement with HUD. KHC accepts applications from all eligible applicants (including first-time applicants and faith-based groups). KHC will implement a two-year competitive funding cycle beginning in federal fiscal year 2017, whereby programs that receive funding in FFY 2017 will be eligible for renewal in FFY 2018 so long as certain thresholds are met and assuming funds are available from HUD. This move is intended to allow for more program consistency for clients accessing services and will allow programs the opportunity to plan beyond one year. KHC will establish policies in the FFY 2018 Action Plan for how to award funds that become available due to agencies electing not to renew or other similar circumstances. If funds that are sub-granted to agencies as part of the FFY 17 allocation become available before the grant term expires (e.g., an agency ceases to exist or is unable to spend all of its allocation), KHC reserves the right to determine the most effective process for redistribution at such time, which may include another competitive process, a proportional distribution, or another method deemed most judicious at the time. grantees
Identify the method of selecting project sponsors (including providing full access to grassroots faith-based and other organizations). (HOPWA only) KHC will continue to provide funding for the five Care Coordinator regions within the balance of state. These regions are: Barren River Region Cumberland Valley Region Lexington Region Northern Kentucky Region Purchase Region Currently, project sponsors have been administering federal funds, including HOPWA, for several years and have the knowledge and qualifications needed to encourage successful client outcomes.
Describe how resources will be allocated funding categories. The single funding category for this program is the production of new multifamily housing or rehabilitation of existing multifamily housing for households who are extremely low income (or very low income in years where adequate funding allows for more than one income level to be served under the program regulations.)
