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.
