SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Paperwork Reduction Act Statement

    In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1980 (44 U.S.C. 
3501-220), the information collection requirements have been assigned 
OMB Control Number 2502-0462.

I. Purpose and Substantive Description

A. Authority

    Section 811 of the Cranston-Gonzalez National Affordable Housing 
Act (the NAHA) (and as amended by the Housing and Community Development 
Act of 1992) (HCD Act of 1992), authorized a new supportive housing 
program for persons with disabilities and replaced assistance for 
persons with disabilities previously covered by section 202 of the 
Housing Act of 1959 (section 202 continues, as amended by section 801 
of the NAHA, and HCD Act of 1992, to authorize supportive housing for 
the elderly). The assistance is provided as capital advances and 
contracts for project rental assistance in accordance with 24 CFR part 
890. Capital advances may be used to finance the construction, 
rehabilitation, or acquisition with or without rehabilitation, 
including acquisition from the Resolution Trust Corporation (RTC), of 
structures to be developed into a variety of housing options ranging 
from group homes and independent living facilities, to dwelling units 
in multifamily housing developments, condominium housing and 
cooperative housing. Acquisition without rehabilitation is permitted 
only for group homes or properties acquired from the RTC. This 
assistance may also cover the cost of real property acquisition, site 
improvement, conversion, demolition, relocation, and other expenses 
that the Secretary determines are necessary to expand the supply of 
supportive housing for persons with disabilities.
    For supportive housing for persons with disabilities, the 
Departments of Veterans Affairs and Housing and Urban Development, and 
Independent Agencies Appropriations Act, 1994 (Pub. L. 103-124, enacted 
October 28, 1993, (Fiscal Year 1994 Appropriations Act) provides 
$387,000,000 for capital advances, for supportive housing for persons 
with disabilities, as authorized by section 811 of the NAHA, and for 
project rental assistance, and amendments to contracts for project 
rental assistance, for supportive housing for persons with disabilities 
as authorized by section 811 of the NAHA. Any unreserved balances 
provided in prior years for such purposes are to be merged with amounts 
provided in the Fiscal Year 1994 Appropriations Act. It should be noted 
that although section 623 of the HCD Act of 1992 authorizes tenant-
based assistance for persons with disabilities, appropriations have not 
been provided.
    In accordance with an agreement between HUD and the Farmers Home 
Administration (FmHA) which facilitates the coordination between the 
two agencies in administering their respective rental assistance 
programs, HUD is required to notify FmHA of applications for housing 
assistance it receives. The purpose of this notification is to give 
FmHA the opportunity to comment if it has concern about the demand for 
additional assisted housing and possible harm to existing projects in 
the same housing market area. HUD will consider the FmHA comments in 
its review and project selection process.

B. Allocation Amounts

    In accordance with 24 CFR part 791, the Assistant Secretary will 
allocate the amounts available for capital advances for supportive 
housing for persons with disabilities. The Department reserves project 
rental assistance funds sufficient for 20-year project rental 
assistance contracts in support of the units selected for capital 
advances, consistent with current operating cost standards.
    The allocation formula for section 811 funds consists of the 
following two data elements:
    1. A measure of the number of non-institutionalized persons age 16 
or older with a work disability and a mobility or self-care limitation; 
and
    2. A measure of the number of non-institutionalized persons age 16 
or older having a mobility or self-care limitation but having no work 
disability.
    Based on this formula, the Department has allocated the available 
capital advance funds as shown on the following chart:

------------------------------------------------------------------------

C. Eligibility

    The only eligible applicants under this program are nonprofit 
organizations with section 501(c)(3) tax exemptions from the Internal 
Revenue Service. A single Sponsor shall not request more units in a 
given Region than permitted for that Region in the Invitation.

D. Initial Screening, Technical Processing and Selection Criteria

1. Initial Screening
    Applications for section 811 capital advances that are received by 
HUD at the appropriate address by 4 p.m. local time on May 3, 1994, 
will be reviewed to determine if all parts of the application are 
included. HUD will not review the content of the application as part of 
initial screening. Deficiency letters will be sent informing Sponsors 
of any missing parts of the application. Sponsors must correct such 
deficiencies within 14 calendar days from the date of the deficiency 
letter. The deficiency letter is to be sent by certified mail. Any 
document requested as a result of the initial screening may be executed 
or prepared within the deficiency period, except for Forms HUD-92016-
CAs, Articles of Incorporation, IRS exemption rulings, Forms SF-424, 
Board Resolution committing the minimum capital investment, and site 
control documents (all of these excepted items must be dated no later 
than the application deadline date).
2. Technical Processing
    All applications will be placed in technical processing upon 
receipt of the response to the deficiency letter or at the end of the 
14-day period. All applications will undergo a complete analysis. If a 
reviewer finds that clarification is needed to complete the review or 
an exhibit is missing that was not requested after initial screening, 
the reviewer shall immediately advise the Multifamily Housing 
Representative who will: (a) Request, by telephone, that the Sponsor 
submit the information within five (5) working days, and (b) follow up 
by certified letter. Communications must be attached to the technical 
review and findings memorandum. As part of this analysis, HUD will 
conduct its environmental review in accordance with 24 CFR part 50 on 
only those applications containing evidence of site control. Examples 
of reasons for technical processing rejection include an ineligible 
Sponsor, ineligible population to be served, lack of legal capacity and 
insufficient commitments or indications that supportive services will 
be available. The Secretary will not reject an application based on 
technical processing without giving notice of that rejection with all 
rejection reasons, and affording the applicant an opportunity to 
appeal. An applicant will be afforded 14 calendar days from the date of 
HUD's written notice to appeal a technical rejection to the Field 
Office. The Field Office must respond within 5 working days to the 
Sponsor. The Field Office shall make a determination on an appeal prior 
to making its selection recommendations. All applications will be 
either rated or Technically rejected at the end of technical 
processing.
    Technical processing will also assure that if the Sponsor has been 
found by a court or by a Federal, State, or local agency, in 
noncompliance with any of the statutes, regulations, or other 
requirements listed in the civil rights certification 
(Sec. 890.265(b)(9)(i)), HUD will obtain from the Sponsor a statement 
of the actions taken to correct that noncompliance. There must be no 
pending civil rights suits against the Sponsor instituted by the 
Department of Justice and no pending administrative actions for civil 
rights violations instituted by HUD. Moreover, there must not be a 
deferral of the processing of applications from the Sponsor imposed by 
HUD under Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Department's 
implementing regulations (24 CFR 1.8), procedures (HUD Handbook 
8040.1), and the Attorney General's Guidelines (28 CFR 50.3); or under 
section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and the Department's 
implementing regulations (24 CFR 8.57), and the Americans with 
Disabilities Act.
    Upon completion of technical processing, all acceptable 
applications will be rated according to the selection criteria in 
Sec. 890.300(d) (also below in I.D.3). Applications which have a total 
score of 50 points or more will be eligible for selection and will be 
placed in rank order.
3. Selection Criteria
    Applications for section 811 capital advances that successfully 
complete technical processing will be rated using the following 
selection criteria:
    (a) The Sponsor's ability to develop and operate the proposed 
housing on a long-term basis, considering the following (50 points 
maximum):
    (1) The scope, extent and quality of the Sponsor's experience in 
providing housing or related services to those proposed to be served by 
the project and the scope of the proposed project (i.e., number of 
units, services, relocation costs, development, and operation) in 
relationship to the Sponsor's demonstrated development and management 
capacity. (32 points);
    (2) The scope, extent and quality of the Sponsor's experience in 
providing housing or related services to minority persons or families

    (3) The scope, extent and quality of the Sponsor's experience in 
providing opportunities for minority and women-owned business 
enterprises participation (3 points); and

determination by the Field Office. This determination will be made by 
taking into consideration the Sponsor's evidence of need in the area 
based on the guidelines in Sec. 890.265(b)(18), as well as other 
economic, demographic and housing market data available to the Field 
Office. The data could include the availability of existing Federally 
assisted housing (HUD and FmHA) for persons with disabilities and 
current occupancy in such facilities, Federally assisted housing for 
persons with disabilities under construction or for which fund 
reservations have been issued and, in accordance with an agreement 
between HUD and FmHA, comments from the FmHA on the demand for 
additional assisted housing and the possible harm to existing projects 
in the same housing market area (8 points);
    (2) The proximity or accessibility of the site to shopping, medical 
facilities, transportation, places of worship, recreational facilities, 
places of employment, and other necessary services to the intended 
occupants, adequacy of utilities and streets, freedom of the site from 
adverse environmental conditions, and compliance with the site and 
neighborhood standards (10 points);
    (3) Suitability of the site from the standpoint of promoting a 
greater choice of housing opportunities for minority persons with 
disabilities (7 points); and
    (4) Likelihood that Sponsor will have site control (if not already 
in control of an approvable site) within six months of fund reservation 
(yes or no);
    (c) The adequacy of the provision of supportive services and of the 
proposed facility considering (25 points maximum):
    (1) The extent to which the Sponsor demonstrated that the 
identified supportive services will be provided on a consistent long-
term basis (considering any limitations imposed by State or local 
governments) - strength of commitments to fund or provide the 
supportive services, or indications of the availability of supportive 
services to project residents (10 points);
    (2) The quality of the services implementation plan (10 points);
    (3) The extent to which the proposed design will meet any special 
needs of persons with disabilities the housing is intended to serve and 
will accommodate the provision of any necessary on-site supportive 
services for the proposed residents (5 points).

II. Application Process

    All applications for Section 811 capital advances submitted by 
eligible Sponsors must be filed with the appropriate HUD Field Office 
receiving an allocation and must meet the requirements of this Notice. 
No application will be accepted after 4 p.m. local time on May 3, 1994, 
unless that date and time is extended by a Notice published in the 
Federal Register. Applications received after that date and time will 
not be accepted, even if postmarked by the deadline date. Applications 
submitted by facsimile are not acceptable.
    Immediately upon publication of this NOFA, if names have not 
already been provided to the Multifamily Housing Clearinghouse, Field 
Offices shall notify minority media and media for persons with 
disabilities, all persons and organizations on their mailing lists and 
minority and other organizations within their jurisdiction involved in 
housing and community development and groups with special interest in 
housing for disabled households.
    Organizations interested in applying for a section 811 capital 
advance should contact the Multifamily Housing Clearinghouse at 1-800-
955-2232 for a copy of the application package and advise the 
appropriate Field Office whether they wish to attend the workshop 
described below. HUD encourages minority organizations to participate 
in this program as Sponsors. Field Offices will advise all 
organizations on their mailing list of the date, time and place of 
workshops at which the Section 811 Program will be explained.
    HUD strongly recommends that prospective applicants attend the 
local Field Office workshop. Interested persons with disabilities 
should contact the Field Office to assure that any necessary 
arrangements can be made for them to enable their attendance and 
participation in the workshop. While strongly urged to do so, if 
Sponsors cannot attend a workshop, Application Packages can be obtained 
from the Multifamily Housing Clearinghouse (see address and telephone 
number under SUMMARY above). However, Sponsors must contact the 
appropriate Field Office with any questions regarding the submission of 
applications and for any additional application requirements.
    At the workshops, application procedures and requirements will be 
explained. Also, concerns such as local market conditions, building 
codes, historic preservation, floodplain management, displacement and 
relocation, zoning, housing costs and service plan requirements will be 
addressed.

III. Application Submission Requirements

A. Application

    Each application shall include all of the information, materials, 
forms, and exhibits listed in section III. B. below, with the exception 
of applications submitted by Sponsors selected for a Section 811 fund 
reservation within the last three funding cycles, and must be indexed 
and tabbed. Previously selected Section 811 Sponsors are not required 
to submit the information described in B. 2. (a), (b) and (c) below 
(Exhibit 2, a. b., and c. of the application which are the articles of 
incorporation (or other organizational documents), by-laws, and the IRS 
tax exemption, respectively). The Field Office will base its 
determination of the eligibility of a new Sponsor for a reservation of 
section 811 capital advance funds on the information provided in the 
application. Field Offices will verify a Sponsor's indication of 
previous HUD approval by checking the project number and approval 
status with the appropriate Field Office. If there has been a change in 
any of the eligibility documents since its previous HUD approval, the 
Sponsor must submit the updated information in its application.
    In addition to this relief of paperwork burden in preparing 
applications, applicants will be able to utilize information and 
exhibits previously prepared for prior applications under section 811, 
section 202 or other funding programs. Examples of exhibits that may be 
readily adapted or amended to decrease the burden of application 
preparation include, among others, those on previous participation in 
the section 202 or section 811 programs; applicant experience in the 
provision of housing and services; supportive services plan; community 
ties, and experience serving minorities.

B. General Application Requirements

    1. Form HUD-92016-CA, Application for Section 811 Supportive 
Housing Capital Advance.

    [Note: A sponsor may apply for a scattered site project provided 
each site contains the same facility type (e.g., group home, 
independent living facility, condominium unit). If the sponsor 
proposes a mix of facility types, it must submit one application per 
facility type].

    2. Evidence of each Sponsor's legal status as a nonprofit 
organization, including the following:
    (a) Articles of Incorporation, constitution, or other 
organizational documents;
    (b) By-laws;
    (c) IRS section 501(c)(3) tax exemption ruling (this must be 
submitted by all Sponsors, including churches). A nonprofit 
organization organized in the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico and exempt 
from income taxation under Puerto Rico law, has never been liable for 
payment of Federal income taxes, and does not pay patronage dividends 
may be exempt from the requirement set out in the previous sentence if 
they are not eligible for tax exemption; and
    (d) Resolution of the board, duly certified by an officer, that no 
officer or director of the Sponsor or Owner has or will have any 
financial interest in any contract with the Owner or in any firm or 
corporation which has or will have a contract with the Owner and which 
includes a current listing of all duly qualified and sitting officers 
and directors by title and the ending date of each person's term.

    [Note: Sponsors who have received a section 811 fund reservation 
within the last three funding cycles are not required to submit the 
documents described in (a), (b), and (c), above. Instead, sponsors 
must submit the project number of the most recently selected 
application and the field office to which it was submitted. If there 
have been any modifications or additions to the subject documents, 
indicate such, and submit the new material.]

    3. CHAS certification. The Sponsor must submit a certification by 
the jurisdiction in which the proposed project will be located that the 
Sponsor's application is consistent with the jurisdiction's HUD-
approved CHAS for FY 1994. The certification must be made by the unit 
of general local government if it is required to have, or has, a 
complete CHAS. Otherwise the certification may be made by the State, or 
if the project will be located in a unit of general local government 
authorized to use an abbreviated strategy, by the unit of general local 
government if it is willing to prepare such a CHAS.
    All CHAS certifications must be made by the public official 
responsible for submitting the CHAS to HUD. All CHAS certifications 
must be submitted as part of the application by the application 
submission deadline set forth in this NOFA, except as provided in the 
next paragraph. The required CHAS must therefore have been submitted 
more than 60 days before the application submission deadline, since HUD 
has 60 days to review and approve the CHAS. Where the certification of 
consistency is permitted to be submitted after the application 
submission deadline, as described in the next paragraph, the CHAS must 
be submitted for approval in time for the certification to be made by 
the later date. In no event will an application be considered if the 
CHAS has not been submitted for approval by the application submission 
deadline.
    If the required certification will be made by a unit of general 
local government with respect to an abbreviated strategy, and such CHAS 
has been submitted by the application submission deadline but has not 
yet been approved by HUD, the deadline will not be applied to the 
certification for consistency. Instead, the application must include a 
written statement from the public official responsible for submitting 
the CHAS that the jurisdiction has submitted an abbreviated strategy 
for FY 1994 for HUD approval and that the application is consistent 
with the CHAS. If HUD approved the CHAS, the required certification 
that the application is consistent with a HUD-approved CHAS for FY 1994 
must be submitted before June 2, 1994. An application will not be 
selected for funding unless the CHAS is approved and the required 
certification is made by June 2, 1994. The CHAS regulations are 
published in 24 CFR part 91.
    4. E.O. 12372. A certification that the Sponsor has submitted a 
copy of its application, if required, to the State agency (single point 
of contact) for State review in accordance with Executive Order 12372.
    5. Supportive Services Certification. A certification from the 
appropriate State or local agency that the provision of supportive 
services is well designed to serve the special needs of persons with 
disabilities (the name, address, and telephone number of the 
appropriate agency can be obtained from the Field Office).
    6. SF-424. A certification on SF-424, Application for Federal 
Assistance, that the Sponsor(s) is not delinquent on the repayment of 
any Federal debt.
    7. Disclosure of Lobbying Activities. If the amount applied for is 
greater than $100,000, the certification with regard to lobbying 
required by 24 CFR part 87 must be included. If the amount applied for 
is greater than $100,000 and the applicant has made or has agreed to 
make any payment using nonappropriated funds for lobbying activity, as 
described in 24 CFR part 87, the submission must also include SF-LLL, 
Disclosure of Lobbying Activities. The applicant determines if the 
submission of the SF-LLL form is applicable.
    8. A statement that (a) identifies all persons (families, 
individuals, businesses and nonprofit organizations (identified by 
race/minority group, and status as owners or tenants) occupying the 
property on the date of submission of the application for a capital 
advance (or date of initial site control, if later); (b) indicates the 
estimated cost of relocation payments and other services, and (c) 
identifies the staff organization that will carry out the relocation 
activities.

    [Note: If any of the relocation costs will be funded from 
sources other than the section 811 capital advance, the sponsor must 
provide evidence of a firm commitment of these funds. When 
evaluating applications, HUD will consider the total cost of 
proposals (i.e., cost of site acquisition, relocation, construction 
and other project costs).]

    9. Additional Certifications.
    (a) A certification of the Sponsor(s)' intent to comply with 
section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 (29 U.S.C. 794) and the 
implementing regulations at 24 CFR part 8; the Fair Housing Act (42 
U.S.C. 3600-3619) and the implementing regulations at 24 CFR part 100,

amount awarded in each of the two categories for the preceding three 
years and the percentage that amount represents of the total contracts 
awarded by the Sponsor in the relevant time period.
    14. A certified Board Resolution, acknowledging responsibilities of 
sponsorship, long-term support of the project(s), willingness of 
Sponsor to assist the Owner to develop, own, manage and provide 
appropriate services in connection with the proposed project, and that 
it reflects the will of its membership. Also, evidence, in the form of 
a certified Board Resolution, of the Sponsor's willingness to fund the 
estimated start-up expenses, the Minimum Capital Investment (one-half 
of one-percent of the HUD-approved capital advance, not to exceed 
$10,000) (see 890.250), and the estimated cost of any amenities or 
features (and operating costs related thereto) which would not be 
coverd by the approved capital advance.
    15. A list of the applications, if any, the Sponsor has submitted 
or is planning to submit to any other Field Office in response to this 
NOFA or the NOFA for Supportive Housing for the Elderly (published 
elsewhere in today's Federal Register). Indicate by Field Office, the 
number of units requested, and the proposed location by city and State 
for each application. A list of all FY 1993 and prior year projects to 
which the Sponsor(s) is a party, identified by project number and Field 
Office, which have not been finally closed.
    16. HUD-2880, Applicant/Recipient Disclosure/Update Report 
including Social Security Numbers and Employee Identification Numbers.
    17. Evidence of need for supportive housing. An identification of 
the proposed population and evidence demonstrating sustained effective 
demand for the housing for the proposed population in the area to be 
served, such as a description of market conditions in existing 
Federally assisted housing for persons with disabilities (occupancy, 
waiting lists, etc.), state or local needs assessments of persons with 
disabilities in the area, the types of supportive services arrangements 
currently available in the area, and the utilization of such services 
as evidenced by data from local social service agencies.
    18. Evidence of control of an approvable site, or identification of 
a site for which the Sponsor provides reasonable assurances that it 
will obtain control within 6 months from the date of fund reservation 
(if Sponsor is approved for funding);
    (a) If the Sponsor has control of the site, it must submit the 
following information:
    (1) Evidence that the Sponsor has entered into a legally binding 
option agreement to purchase or lease the proposed site; or has a copy 
of the contract of sale for the site, a deed, long-term leasehold, a 
request with all supporting documentation, submitted either prior to or 
with the Application for Capital Advance, for a partial release of a 
site covered by a mortgage under a HUD program or other evidence of 
legal ownership of the site (including properties to be acquired from 
the RTC). The option agreement period must extend through the end of 
the current fiscal year and contain a renewal provision so that the 
option can be renewed for at least an additional six months. The 
Sponsor must also identify any restrictive covenants, including 
reverter clauses. In the case of a site to be acquired from a public 
body, evidence that the public body possesses clear title to the site, 
and has entered into a legally binding agreement to lease or convey the 
site to the Sponsor after it receives and accepts a notice of section 
811 capital advance and identification of any restrictive covenants, 
including reverter clauses. However, in localities where HUD determines 
that the time constraints of the funding round will not permit all of 
the required official actions (e.g., approval of Community Planning 
Boards) which are necessary to convey publicly-owned sites, a letter in 
the application from the Mayor or Director of the appropriate local 
agency indicating their approval of conveyance of the site contingent 
upon the necessary approval action is acceptable and may be approved by 
the Field Office if it has satisfactory experience with timely 
conveyance of sites from that public body. In such cases, documentation 
shall also include a copy of the public body's evidence of ownership 
and identification of any restrictive covenants, including reverter 
clauses. For properties to be acquired from the RTC, include a copy of 
the RTC prepared Transaction Screen Checklist or Phase I Environmental 
Site Assessment, and applicable documentation, per the RTC 
Environmental Guidelines.

    [Note: A proposed project site may not be acquired or optioned 
from a general contractor (or its affiliate) which will construct 
the section 811 project or from any other development team member.]

    (2) Evidence that the project as proposed is permissible under 
applicable zoning ordinances or regulations, or a statement of the 
proposed action required to make the proposed project permissible and 
the basis for the belief that the proposed action will be completed 
successfully before the submission of the commitment application (e.g., 
a summary of the results of any recent requests for rezoning on land in 
similar zoning classifications and the time required for such rezoning, 
preliminary indications of acceptability from zoning bodies, etc.).
    (3) Narrative description of site and area surrounding the site, 
characteristics of neighborhood, how the site will promote greater 
housing opportunities for minorities, and any other information that 
impacts on the suitability of the site for persons with disabilities 
and including:
    (i) Photographs of the site (four directional views);
    (ii) If acquisition, evidence that the structure has been 
constructed or occupied for at least three years (other than RTC 
properties);
    (iii) A statement that the Sponsor is willing to seek a different 
site if the preferred site is unapprovable and site control will be 
obtained within six months of notification of fund reservation; and
    (iv) A map showing the location of the site and the racial 
composition of the neighborhood, with the area of racial concentration 
delineated.
    (v) If the project is to be rehabilitated and an exception of the 
project size limits is necessary, describe why the site was selected 
and demonstrate the following:
    (A) The increased number of people is necessary for the economic 
feasibility of the project;
    (B) The project is compatible with other residential development 
and the population density of the area in which the project is to be 
located;
    (C) The increased number of people will not prohibit their 
successful integration into the community;
    (D) The project is marketable in the community;
    (E) The size of the project is consistent with State and/or local 
policies governing similar facilities for the proposed population; and
    (F) A statement that the Sponsor is willing to have its application 
processed at the project size limit should HUD not approve the 
exception.
    (b) If the Sponsor has identified a site, but does not have it 
under control, it must submit the following information:
    (1) A description of the location of the site, including its street 
address and unit number (if condominium), neighborhood/community 
characteristics (to include racial and ethnic data), amenities, 
adjacent housing and/or facilities, how the site will promote greater 
housing opportunities for minorities, and any other information that 
impacts on the suitability of the site for persons with disabilities;
    (2) A description of the activities undertaken to identify the site 
as well as what actions must be taken and the estimated time necessary 
to obtain control of the site, if approved for funding;
    (3) An indication as to whether the site is properly zoned. If it 
is not, an indication of the actions/time necessary for proper zoning;
    (4) A status of the sale of the site; and
    (5) An indication as to whether the site would involve relocation.
    19. Supportive Service plan that includes:
    (a) A detailed description of whether the housing is intended to 
serve persons with physical, mental or emotional impairments, 
developmental disabilities, or chronic mental illness. Include how and

    (2) The manner in which such services will be provided (i.e., how, 
when and how often, where (on/off-site), including assurances that the 
proposed residents will receive supportive services based on their 
individual needs.
    (3) The staffing plan, including a description of the 
qualifications of residential staff, if any, and other staff necessary 
to provide the proposed services.
    (d) Identification of the extent of state and local funds available 
to assist in the provision of supportive services.
    (e) Letters of intent from service providers or funding sources, 
indicating commitments to fund or provide the supportive services or 
that a particular service will be available to project residents.
    (f) If the Sponsor will be the sole service provider using its own 
funds, a letter indicating its capability and commitment to either 
provide the supportive services or ensure their provision for the life 
of the project.
    (g) If any state or local government funds will be provided, a 
description of the state/local agency's philosophy/policy concerning 
residential facilities for the population to be served as well as a

state or local plans and policies governing the development and 
operation of facilities for the same disabled population.
    (h) Form HUD 92013E, Supplemental Application Processing Form--
Housing for Persons with Disabilities. Identify all supportive

features planned for the housing. A description of how the spaces, 
amenities or features will be utilized and of the extent to which they 
are necessary to accommodate any special needs of the proposed 
residents and the provision of any on-site supportive services also 
must be included. If these community spaces, amenities, or features 
would not comply with the design and cost standards of Sec. 890.220, 
the Sponsor must demonstrate its ability and willingness to contribute 
both the incremental development cost and continuing operating cost 
associated with the community spaces, amenities or features; and
    (d) Describe if and how the project will promote energy efficiency 
and, if applicable, innovative construction or rehabilitation methods 
or technologies to be used that will promote efficient construction.
    21. For group homes to be licensed as intermediate care facilities 
(in which funding for the intermediate care is provided under Title XIX 
of the Social Security Act) that serve persons with developmental 
disabilities, the following must be submitted:
    (a) Evidence demonstrating that the proposed project will primarily 
provide housing rather than medical facilities, and is or will be 
licensed by appropriate State agencies;
    (b) Description of the medical training of the staff of the 
proposed facility and any nursing services that will be required by the

IV. Additional Information

A. Sites

    The National Affordable Housing Act requires Sponsors submitting 
applications for section 811 fund reservations to provide either (a) 
evidence of site control, or (b) reasonable assurances that it will 
have control of a site within 6 months of notification of fund 
reservation. Accordingly, if a Sponsor has control of a site at the 
time it submits its application, it must include evidence of such as 
described in Sec. 890.265. If it does not have site control, it must 
provide the information required in Sec. 890.265 as a reasonable 
assurance that site control will be obtained within 6 months of fund 
reservation notification.
    Sponsors may select a site different from the one(s) submitted in 
their original applications if the original site is not approvable. 
Selection of a different site will require HUD performance of an 
environmental review on the new site, which could result in rejection 
of that site. However, if a Sponsor does not have site control for any 
reason 12 months after notification of fund reservation, the assistance 
will be recaptured and reallocated.
    Sponsors submitting satisfactory evidence of an approvable site 
(i.e., site control) will compete against each other in Category A. 
Sponsors submitting proper identification of a site will compete 
against each other in Category B. HUD first shall select applications 
in the descending order of funding priority from Category A that most 
closely approximates the capital advance authority provided to the 
allocation area. If capital advance authority remains after selecting 
all approvable applications from Category A, HUD shall then select 
applications in the descending order of funding priority from Category 
B that most closely approximates the capital advance authority 
remaining in the allocation area.
    Applications containing evidence of site control where either the 
evidence or the site is not approvable will not be rejected provided 
the application indicates the Sponsor's willingness to select another 
site and an assurance that site control will be obtained within six 
months of fund reservation notification. Such applications will compete 
for selection in Category B. However, only those applications where the 
evidence of site control was not approvable will be eligible to receive 
any of the possible 17 points under selection criteria (b) (2) and (3) 
(see I.D.3.(b) (2) and (3) above). Applications where the site was 
rejected will receive 0 points under selection criteria (b) (2) and 
(3).
    In the case of a scattered site application submitted with evidence 
of site control for all of the sites, the evidence must be satisfactory 
for each site and all the sites must be approvable for the application 
to compete in Category A. If such an application does not fulfill this 
requirement, it will be placed in Category B and will be eligible to 
receive a prorated share of the 17 points possible under selection 
criteria (b) (2) and (3) based on the number of sites that are 
approvable. The same applies to a scattered site application in which 
the Sponsor has control of some of the sites and has identified others. 
It would also be considered in Category B and would be eligible for a 
prorated share of the 17 points as stated above.

V. Other Matters

A. Environmental Impact

    A Finding of No Significant Impact with respect to the environment 
has been made in accordance with HUD regulations that implement section 
102(2)(C) of the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969, 42 U.S.C. 
4332. The Finding of No Significant Impact is available for public 
inspection during business hours in the Office of the Rules Docket 
Clerk, Office of General Counsel, room 10276, Department of Housing and 
Urban Development, 451 Seventh Street, Southwest, Washington, DC 20410.

B. Federalism Executive Order

    The General Counsel, as the Designated Official under section 6(a) 
of Executive Order No. 12612, Federalism, has determined that this NOFA 
does not have substantial direct effects on States or their political 
subdivisions, or on the relationship between the Federal government and 
the States, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities among 
the various levels of government. This NOFA merely notifies the public 
of the availability of capital advances for supportive housing for 
persons with disabilities.

C. Family Executive Order

    The General Counsel, as the Designated Official under Executive 
Order No. 12606, The Family, has determined that this NOFA does not 
significantly affect family formation, maintenance, or general well-
being, and, thus, is not subject to review under the order.

D. Accountability in the Provision of HUD Assistance

    HUD has promulgated a final rule to implement section 102 of the 
Department of Housing and Urban Development Reform Act of 1989 (HUD 
Reform Act). The final rule is codified at 24 CFR part 12. Section 102 
contains a number of provisions that are designed to ensure greater 
accountability and integrity in the provision of certain types of 
assistance administered by HUD. On January 14, 1992, HUD published at 
57 FR 1942, additional information that gave the public (including 
applicants for, and recipients of, HUD assistance) further information 
on the implementation, public access, and disclosure requirements of 
section 102. The documentation, public access, and disclosure 
requirements of section 102 are applicable to assistance awarded under 
this NOFA as follows:
1. Documentation and Public Access
    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 
include the recipients of assistance pursuant to this NOFA in its 
quarterly Federal Register notice of all recipients of HUD assistance 
awarded on a competitive basis. (See 24 CFR 12.14(a) and 12.16(b), and 
the notice published in the Federal Register on January 16, 1992 (57 FR 
1942), for further information on these requirements.)
2. Disclosures
    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 
24 CFR 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. Documentation and Public Access Requirements: HUD Reform Act

    HUD will ensure that 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 
include the recipients of assistance pursuant to this NOFA in its 
quarterly Federal Register notice of all recipients of HUD assistance 
awarded on a competitive basis. (See CFR 12.14(a) and 12.16(b), and the 
notice published in the Federal Register on January 16, 1992 (57 FR 
1942), for further information on these requirements.)

F. Section 103

    HUD's regulation implementing section 103 of the Department of 
Housing and Urban Development Reform Act of 1989 was published May 13, 
1991 (56 FR 22088) and became effective on June 12, 1991. That 
regulation, codified as 24 CFR part 4, applies to the funding 
competition announced today. The requirements of the 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 restrained 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 (TDD/Voice). (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 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.

G. Lobbying

    Section 13 of the Department of Housing and Urban Development Act 
(42 U.S.C. 3537b) 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 published in the Federal 
Register on May 17, 1991 (56 FR 22912). If readers are involved in any 
efforts to influence the Department in these ways, they are urged to 
read the final rule, particularly the examples contained in Appendix A 
of the rule.
    Any questions regarding the rule should be directed to the 
Director, Office of Ethics, Room 2158, Department of Housing and Urban 
Development, 451 Seventh Street, SW., Washington, DC 20410. 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. 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.
