Notice of Funding Availability for Housing Opportunities for
Persons With AIDS
AGENCY: Office of the Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and
Development, HUD.
ACTION: Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA).
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This Notice announces the availability of up to $19,200,000 in
funds to be allocated by competition for housing assistance and
supportive services under the Housing Opportunities for Persons with
AIDS (HOPWA) program. The funds available under this NOFA will be used
to fund projects for low-income persons with HIV/AIDS and their
families under two categories of assistance: (1) Grants for special
projects of national significance which, due to their innovative nature
or their potential for replication, are likely to serve as effective
models in addressing the needs of eligible persons; and (2) grants for
projects which are part of long-term comprehensive strategies for
providing housing and related services for eligible persons.
The NOFA contains information concerning eligible applicants, the
funding available, the application package, its processing, and
selection of applications. The regulations for the HOPWA program are
found at 24 CFR part 574. A Final Rule for this program, amending 24
CFR part 574, was published in the Federal Register on April 11, 1994
(59 FR 17194), and was amended by a rule establishing the Consolidated
Plan on January 5, 1995 (60 FR 1878).
DATES: Applications for HOPWA assistance must be received at the HUD
Headquarters Office listed below by 6:00 p.m. Eastern time on April 17,
1995. Conditionally selected applicants will be notified by HUD of
their selection and may be required to submit additional information
within two months of the date of their notification from HUD.
FOR A COPY OF APPLICATION PACKAGES CONTACT: A HUD Field Office listed
in the appendix to this NOFA.
ADDRESSES: Completed applications must be submitted to the Office of
Community Planning and Development, Processing Control Branch, Room
7255, Department of Housing and Urban Development, 451 Seventh Street,
S.W., Washington, D.C. 20410. HUD will treat as ineligible for
consideration applications that are received after the deadline. A copy
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 at the
end of this NOFA. The Department will not accept any application which
is submitted to HUD via facsimile (FAX) transmission.
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 the appendix to this NOFA.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Paperwork Reduction Act Statement
The information collection requirements for the HOPWA program have
been approved under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1980 by the Office
of Management and Budget (OMB), and have been assigned OMB control
number 2506-0133 (exp. 2/28/97).
I. Purpose and Substantive Description
(a) Purpose
The funds available under this NOFA will be used to fund projects
for low-income persons with HIV/AIDS and their families under two
categories of assistance: (1) Grants for special projects of national
significance which, due to their innovative nature or their potential
for replication, are likely to serve as effective models in addressing
the needs of eligible persons; and (2) grants for projects which are
part of long-term comprehensive strategies for providing housing and
related services for eligible persons.
(b) Authority
The assistance made available under this NOFA is authorized by the
AIDS Housing Opportunity Act (42 U.S.C. 12901), and was appropriated by
the HUD Appropriations Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 103-327, approved September
28, 1994) and by the HUD Appropriations Act of 1994 (Pub. L. 103-124,
approved October 28, 1993). The regulations for HOPWA are found at 24
CFR part 574.
(c) Eligibility
(1) States, units of general local government, and nonprofit
organizations may apply for grants for special projects of national
significance. (2) All States and units of general local government may
apply for grants for projects under the second category of grants,
except for: (A) any State that was eligible to receive a formula award
in fiscal year 1995; and (B) any unit of general local government that
was located in a metropolitan area or State that was eligible to
receive a formula award in fiscal year 1995. Nonprofit organizations
are not eligible to apply for the second category of grants.
(d) Allocation Amounts
Up to $19,200,000 is being made available by this NOFA. Since some
of the appropriated funds are to be derived from the recapture of prior
year obligations, the actual amount available may be less.
The maximum amount that an applicant may receive is $1,000,000,
excluding administration costs. HUD reserves the right to fund less
than the full amount requested in any application and to modify
requests accordingly. If a request is modified by HUD, the
conditionally selected [[Page 9261]] applicant will be required to
modify its project plans and application to conform to the terms of HUD
approval before execution of a grant agreement.
Funds received under this competition are to be expended within
three years following the date of the signing of a grant agreement. Any
unobligated funds from previous competitions or additional funds that
may become available as a result of deobligations or recaptures from
previous awards may also be used to fund applications submitted in
response to this NOFA.
(e) Program Goal
Applicants for HOPWA assistance under this NOFA should emphasize
the connection between housing assistance and appropriate supportive
services in designing their programs. As stated by the National
Commission on AIDS in Housing and the HIV/AIDS Epidemic (issued in June
1992) there is ``frequently desperate need safe shelter that provides
not only protection and comfort, but also a base in which and from
which to receive services, care and support.''
II. Application Selection Process
(a) Review
Applications will be reviewed to ensure that they meet the
following:
(1) Applicant eligibility. The applicant and project sponsor(s), if
any, are eligible to apply for the specific program;
(2) Eligible population to be served. The persons proposed to be
served are eligible persons;
(3) Eligible activities. The proposed activities are eligible for
assistance under the program; and
(4) Other requirements. The applicant is currently in compliance
with the Federal requirements contained in 24 CFR part 574, subpart G,
``Other Federal Requirements.''
(b) Rating
Applications under both categories of grant will be rated in a
national competition. To rate applications, the Department may
establish a panel including persons not currently employed by HUD to
obtain outside points of view, including views from other Federal
agencies.
(c) Rating of Applications.
(1) Procedure. Applications will be rated based on the criteria
listed below in paragraph (2), with a maximum of 100 points awarded.
After rating, these applications will be placed in the rank order of
their final score for selection.
(2) Rating Criteria. Applications under both categories of grant
will be rated on the following criteria:
(A) Applicant capacity (20 points). HUD will award up to 20 points
based on the ability of the applicant and, if applicable, any project
sponsor(s) to develop and operate the proposed program. With regard to
both the applicant and the project sponsor(s), HUD will consider: (a)
Past experience in serving persons with AIDS or related diseases and
their families; (b) past experience in programs similar to those
proposed in the application; and (c) experience in monitoring and
evaluating program performance.
As applicable, the rating under this criterion will also consider
prior performance with any HUD-administered programs, including any
serious, outstanding audit or monitoring findings that directly affect
the proposed project.
(B) Need for the project in the area to be served (20 points). HUD
will award up to 20 points based on the extent to which the need for
the project in the area to be served is demonstrated by the relative
numbers of AIDS cases and per capita AIDS incidence, as reported to and
confirmed by the Director of the Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention.
(C) Appropriateness of program activities: Housing, supportive
services and other assistance (30 points). HUD will award up to 30
points based on the extent to which a plan for undertaking and managing
the proposed activities:
(a) Describes and responds to the need for housing and related
supportive services of eligible persons in the community; or, in
relation to technical assistance activities proposed in the
application, describes and responds to the technical assistance needs
of programs which provide housing and related supportive services for
eligible persons;
(b) describes how activities carried out with HOPWA funds and other
resources will provide a continuum of housing and services to meet the
changing needs of eligible persons, offers a personalized response to
those needs which maximizes opportunities for independent living, and
in the case of a family, accommodates the needs of families;
(c) provides for monitoring and the evaluation of the assistance
provided to participants; and
(d) in relation to technical assistance activities proposed in the
application, provides technical assistance related to the development
and operation of programs and the capacity of organizations to
undertake and manage assistance for eligible persons.
(D) Extent of leveraged public and private resources for the
project (10 points). HUD will award up to 10 points based on the extent
to which resources from other public or private sources have been
committed to support the project at the time of application.
(E) Special projects of national significance (20 points).
Applications for special projects of national significance will be
rated on innovative nature of the proposal and its potential for
replication. HUD will award up to 20 points based on the extent to
which the project involves a new program for, or alternative method of,
meeting the needs of eligible persons, when compared to other
applications and projects funded in the past. The Department will
consider the extent to which the project design, management plan,
proposed effects, local planning and coordination of housing programs,
the likelihood of the continuation of the State and local efforts, and
proposed activities are exemplary and appropriate as a model for
replication in similar localities or nationally, when compared to other
applications and projects funded in the past.
(F) Projects which are part of long-term comprehensive strategies
for providing housing and related services for eligible persons (20
points). Applications for projects for this category of assistance will
be rated on the extent of local planning and coordination of housing
programs. HUD will award up to 20 points based on the extent to which
the applicant demonstrates: (a) The proposed project is part of a
community strategy involving local, metropolitan or State-wide planning
and coordination of housing programs designed to meet the changing
needs of low-income persons with HIV/AIDS and their families, including
programs providing housing assistance and related services that are
operated by Federal, State, local, private and other entities serving
eligible persons; and (b) the likelihood of the continuation of the
planning and coordination.
(d) Selection. Whether an application is conditionally selected
will depend on its overall ranking compared to other applications. The
Department will select applications to the extent that funds are
available. HUD reserves the right to select lower rated applications if
necessary to achieve geographic diversity and to ensure that a minimum
number of applications under each category of assistance are among
conditionally selected applications. [[Page 9262]]
In the event of a tie between applications, the application with
the highest total points for the criterion need will be selected, and
if still tied, the highest total points for the criterion
appropriateness of housing and services. In the event of a procedural
error that, when corrected, would result in selection of an otherwise
eligible application during the funding round under this NOFA, HUD may
select that application when sufficient funds become available.
III. Application Submission Requirements
The application submission requirements are contained in the
application package. This package includes all required forms and
certifications, and may be obtained from a HUD Field Office listed in
the appendix to this NOFA.
IV. Clarifications and Technical Assistance
(a) Clarification of Application Information. In accordance with
the provisions of 24 CFR part 4, subpart B, HUD may contact an
applicant to seek clarification of an item in the application, or to
request additional or missing information, but the clarification or the
request for additional or missing information shall not relate to items
that would improve the substantive quality of the application pertinent
to the funding decision.
(b) Technical Assistance. Prior to the application deadline, HUD
field office staff will be available to provide advice and guidance to
potential applicants on application requirements and program policies.
Following conditional selection, HUD field office staff will be
available to assist in clarifying or confirming information that is a
prerequisite to the offer of a grant agreement by HUD. However, between
the application deadline and the announcement of conditional
selections, HUD will accept no information that would improve the
substantive quality of the application pertinent to the funding
decision.
V. Grant Award Process
HUD will notify conditionally selected applicants in writing. Such
applicants will subsequently be notified of any modification made by
HUD, the additional project information necessary for grant award and
the date of the two-month deadline for submission of such information.
If an applicant is unable to meet any conditions for grant award within
the specified time period, HUD reserves the right not to award funds
and to use the funds available in the next competition for the
applicable program.
VI. Other Matters
(a) Environmental Impact. A finding of no significant impact with
respect to the environment has been made in accordance with HUD
regulations at 24 CFR part 50, which implement section 102(2)(C) of the
National Environmental Policy Act of 1969. The finding of no
significant impact is available for public inspection between 7:30 a.m.
to 5:30 p.m. weekdays in the Office of the Rules Docket Clerk at the
above address.
(b) Federalism Impact. The General Counsel, as the Designated
Official under section 6(a) of Executive Order 12612, Federalism, has
determined that the policies contained in this Notice will not have
substantial direct effects on States or their political subdivisions,
or the relationship between the Federal government and the States, or
on the distribution of power and responsibilities among the various
levels of government. As a result, the Notice is not subject to review
under the Order. The Notice announces the availability of funds and
invites applications from eligible applicants for the HOPWA program.
(c) Impact on the Family. The General Counsel, as the Designated
Official for Executive Order 12606, the Family, has determined that
this Notice, to the extent the funds provided under it are directed to
families, has the potential for a beneficial impact on family
formation, maintenance and general well-being. The statutory authority
for the program requires that the funds be targeted to individuals with
acquired immunodeficiency syndrome or related diseases and their
families. Any funding provided to projects can be expected to enable
those families with a participating member who has HIV infection to
live in decent, safe, and sanitary housing in connection with the
supportive services necessary to live independently in mainstream
American society. Since the impact on families is a beneficial one, no
further review is necessary.
(d) Accountability in the Provision of HUD Assistance. HUD's
regulation implementing section 102 of the Department of Housing and
Urban Development Reform Act of 1989, found at 24 CFR part 12, contains
a number of provisions designed to ensure greater accountability and
integrity in the provision of certain types of assistance administered
by HUD. Additional information on the implementation of section 102 was
published on January 16, 1992 at 57 FR 1942. The documentation, public
access, and disclosure requirements of section 102 apply to assistance
awarded under this NOFA as follows:
HUD will ensure documentation and other information regarding each
application submitted pursuant to this NOFA are sufficient to indicate
the basis upon which assistance was provided or denied. This material,
including any letters of support, will be made available for public
inspection for a five-year period beginning not less than 30 days after
the award of the assistance. Material will be made available in
accordance with the Freedom of Information Act (5 U.S.C. 552) and HUD's
implementing regulations at 24 CFR part 15. In addition, HUD will
publish notice of awards made in response to this NOFA in the Federal
Register.
HUD will make available to the public for five years all applicant
disclosure reports (HUD Form 2880) submitted in connection with this
NOFA. Update reports (also Form 2880) will be made available along with
the applicant disclosure reports, but in no case for a period less than
three years. All reports--both applicant disclosures and updates--will
be made available in accordance with the Freedom of Information Act (5
U.S.C. 552) and HUD's implementing regulations at 24 CFR part 15. (See
subpart C, and the notice published in the Federal Register on January
16, 1992 (57 FR 1942), for further information on these disclosure
requirements.)
(e) Prohibition on Advance Release of Funding Information. HUD's
regulation implementing section 103 of the Department of Housing and
Urban Development Reform Act of 1989, found at 24 CFR part 4, applies
to the funding competition announced today. The requirements of that
rule continue to apply until the announcement of the selection of
successful applicants.
HUD employees involved in the review of applications and in the
making of funding decisions are limited by part 4 from providing
advance information to any person (other than an authorized employee of
HUD) concerning funding decisions, or from otherwise giving any
applicant an unfair competitive advantage. Persons who apply for
assistance in this competition should confine their inquiries to the
subject areas permitted under 24 CFR part 4.
Applicants who have questions should contact the HUD Office of
Ethics (202) 708-3815. (This is not a toll-free number.) The Office of
Ethics can provide information of a general nature to HUD employees, as
well. However, a HUD employee who has specific [[Page 9263]] program
questions, such as whether particular subject matter can be discussed
with persons outside the Department, should contact his or her Regional
or Field Office Counsel, or Headquarters counsel for the program to
which the question pertains.
(f) Prohibition Against Lobbying Activities. The use of funds
awarded under this NOFA is subject to the disclosure requirements and
prohibitions of section 319 of the Department of Interior and Related
Agencies Appropriations Act for Fiscal Year 1990 (31 U.S.C. 1352) (The
``Byrd Amendment'') and the implementing regulations at 24 CFR part 87.
These authorities prohibit recipients of federal contracts, grants, or
loans from using appropriated funds for lobbying the Executive or
Legislative branches of the federal government in connection with a
specific contract, grant, or loan. The prohibition also covers the
awarding of contracts, grants, cooperative agreements, or loans unless
the recipient has made an acceptable certification regarding lobbying.
Under 24 CFR part 87, applicants, recipients, and subrecipients of
assistance exceeding $100,000 must certify that no federal funds have
been or will be spent on lobbying activities in connection with the
assistance. A standard disclosure form, SF-LLL, ``Disclosure Form to
Report Lobbying'', must be used to disclose lobbying with other than
Federally appropriated funds at the time of application.
(g) Section 112 HUD Reform Act. Section 112 of the HUD Reform Act
amended the Department of Housing and Urban Development Act by adding
section 13, which contains two provisions dealing with efforts to
influence HUD's decisions with respect to financial assistance. The
first imposes disclosure requirements on those who are typically
involved in these efforts--those who pay others to influence the award
of assistance or the taking of a management action by the Department
and those who are paid to provide the influence. The second restricts
the payment of fees to those who are paid to influence the award of HUD
assistance, if the fees are tied to the number of housing units
received or are based on the amount of assistance received, or if they
are contingent upon the receipt of assistance.
Section 13 was implemented by final rule codified at 24 CFR part
86. If readers are involved in any efforts to influence the Department
in these ways, they are urged to read that rule, particularly the
examples contained in Appendix A of the rule.
Any questions about the rule should be directed to the Director,
Office of Ethics, room 2158, Department of Housing and Urban
Development, 451 Seventh Street, S.W., Washington, D.C. 20410-3000.
Telephone: (202) 708-3815 (TDD/VOICE); (This is not a toll-free
number.) Forms necessary for compliance with the rule may be obtained
from the local HUD office.
(h) Drug-Free Workplace Certification. In accordance with 24 CFR
24.630, an applicant must submit its Certification for a Drug-Free
Workplace (Form HUD-50070).
(i) Extenuating Circumstances. HUD may consider for funding any
application received at the HUD Headquarters address shown in the
``Addresses'' section of this NOFA by 6:00 p.m. Eastern time on the
first business day after the deadline shown in the ``Date'' section 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 date it specified.
