SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On November 30, 1995 (60 FR 61634), HUD published a notice in the
Federal Register seeking applications from public and private
universities in order to provide funding to develop and implement the
educational component of HUD's new Community Renaissance Fellows
Program. The program will
[[Page 560]]
place 20 Fellows in distressed public housing developments undergoing
conversion, for example, to mixed-income or mixed-use projects. HUD
hopes, with the assistance of private foundations, to place additional
Fellows in comparable projects being undertaken by community
development corporations.
The November 30, 1995 notice also announced that HUD would hold a
``bidders'' conference on January 11, 1996. The purpose of this
conference was to explain, in more detail, the background behind this
solicitation and clarify application requirements.
Cancellation of Bidders Conference
Because of the partial shutdown of the Federal government, the
``bidders'' conference scheduled for January 11, 1996 in Washington,
D.C. is canceled. It may be rescheduled.
No Other Changes to the November 30, 1995 Notice
No other changes are made to the November 30, 1995 notice by this
supplementary notice.
Dated: January 3, 1996.
Michael A. Stegman,
Assistant Secretary for Policy Development and Research.
