-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This notice extends to January 26, 1996 the application due
date for two FY 1995 Historically Black Colleges and Universities
(HBCU) Program competitions: (1) To establish Community Development
Corporations (CDCs) on HBCU Campuses (FR-3937); and (2) Program with
Units of General Local Government (FR-3945). These NOFAs were published

of the original application deadline for these competitions were

The deadlines are extended again by this notice to January 26, 1996.
DATES: No applications will be accepted after 4:30 p.m. on January 26,
1996. This application deadline is firm as to date and hour. In the
interest of fairness to all competing applicants, the Department will
treat as ineligible for consideration any application that is received
after the deadline. Applicants should take this practice into account
and make early submission of their materials to avoid any risk of loss
of eligibility brought about by unanticipated delays or other delivery-
related problems. Applications may not be submitted by facsimile (FAX).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On September 29, 1995, HUD published two FY
1995 HBCU NOFAs: one announcing up to $2.5 million of FY 1995 funding
for HBCUs to establish Community Development Corporations and one
announcing up to $1.5 million of FY 1995 funding for HBCUs to undertake
jointly funded construction/reconstruction projects with units of
general local government. The application due dates were given as
November 28, 1995. That date was extended to January 11, 1996 for the
CDC competition and to January 12, 1996 for the joint local government
competition. Since the HUD Fiscal Year 1996 appropriations bill has not
been signed, resulting in a disruption of HUD operations, the deadline
is again extended. In order to provide more time for the preparation of
applications and for technical assistance from HUD's HBCU staff, this
deadline extends the application due date to January 26, 1996 for both
competitions.
Dated: January 2, 1996.

Assistant Secretary Community Planning and Development
