DEPARTMENT OF HOUSING AND URBAN DEVELOPMENT
[Docket No. N-95-3862; FR-3846-N-02]
Notice of Funding Availability for Fiscal Year 1995 for
Innovative Project Funding Under the Innovative Homeless Initiatives
Demonstration Program; Notice of Extension of Deadline for Applications
AGENCY: Office of the Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and
Development, HUD.
ACTION: Notice of funding availability (NOFA); Extension of deadline
for applications.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: On January 25, 1995 (60 FR 4996), the Department published in
the Federal Register, a Notice that announced the availability of $25
million in funds for applications for Innovative Project Funding under
the Innovative Homeless Initiatives Demonstration Program. These funds
will be awarded competitively for innovative programs designed to
provide aggressive outreach to homeless persons living on the streets
or in other places not designed for, or ordinarily used as, regular
sleeping accommodations for human beings; provide intensive needs
assessments; connect these people with existing community resources
when available; and, if necessary, provide additional housing and
services for them.
For reasons set forth in the January 25, 1995 NOFA, and reiterated
in this notice, there is a short application period for this funding.
The January 25, 1995 NOFA provided for an application deadline of
February 6, 1995. The Department, however, had intended to provide for
an application deadline of February 13, 1995. Accordingly, the purpose
of this notice is to extend the application due date until 6 p.m. local
time on February 13, 1995. (See the January 25, 1995 published NOFA for
all additional requirements.)
DEADLINE DATES: All applications received at HUD Headquarters, Office
of Community Planning and Development, at the address shown in the
``Addresses'' section of this NOFA by 6 p.m. local time on February 13,
1995 will be considered for funding. HUD will treat as ineligible for
consideration applications that are received after the deadline.
However, any application received at that address within 24 hours after
the deadline will be considered for funding if the applicant can show
there were circumstances beyond its control that delayed delivery of
the application, such as the failure of a delivery service to deliver
the application on or before the specified date. Applications may not
be sent by facsimile (FAX).
The Department has established a short application period for this
NOFA in an effort to make funding quickly available to applicants who
are in need of funding to assist homeless persons, especially during
this time when harsh weather conditions necessitate greater and more
immediate assistance to homeless persons.
ADDRESSES: A completed application must be submitted to the following
address: Processing and Control Unit, [[Page 5435]] Room 7255, Office
of Community Planning and Development, Department of Housing and Urban
Development, 451 Seventh Street SW., Washington, DC 20410, Attention:
Homeless Innovative Funding.
One copy of the application must also be sent to the HUD Field
Office serving the area in which the applicant's project is located. A
list of Field Offices appears in Appendix C to the NOFA, which was
published on January 25, 1995. The Field Office copy 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 the Office of Community Planning and Development in
Headquarters, Washington, DC.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: The HUD Field Office for the area in
which the proposed project is located. Telephone numbers are included
in the list of Field Offices set forth in Appendix C to the NOFA,
published on January 25, 1995.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Accordingly, the deadline date for receipt
of applications for the Notice of Funding Availability for Fiscal Year
1995 for Innovative Project Funding under the Innovative Homeless
Initiatives Demonstration Program (NOFA), published in the Federal
Register on January 25, 1995 (60 FR 4996), is extended to February 13,
1995.
Dated: January 25, 1995.
Jacquie M. Lawing,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Economic Development.
