SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
On February 26, 1999 (64 FR 9618), HUD published its FY 1999
SuperNOFA for HUD's Housing, Community Development, and Empowerment
programs. The FY 1999 SuperNOFA announced the availability of
approximately $2.4 billion in HUD program funds covering 32 grant
programs and program components administered by the following HUD
offices: the Office of Community Planning and Development (CPD); the
Office of Housing-Federal Housing Administration (FHA); the Office of
Public and Indian Housing (PIH); the Office of Policy Development and
Research (PD&R); the Office of Fair Housing and Equal Opportunity
(FH&EO); and the Office of Lead Hazard Control.
On May 18, 1999 (64 FR 27120), HUD published a notice that, among
other things, extended the deadline for certain programs in the
SuperNOFA to accommodate areas that were designated disaster areas as a
result of the tornados in early May 1999. The May 18, 1999 notice
republished for the convenience of the readers the introduction section
of the SuperNOFA to reflect updates to programs and application due
date changes.
In both the February 26, 1999 SuperNOFA and in the May 18, 1999
extension notice, HUD advised, in the introduction section, that the
SuperNOFA application rating system provides for up to two bonus points
for eligible activities/projects that the applicant proposes to be
located in high performing federally designated Empowerment Zones (EZs)
or Enterprise Communities (ECs). HUD also advised that it would publish
in the Federal Register the list of high performing EZs and ECs.
This notice provides the list of high performing EZ and ECs, both
urban and rural.
The list is attached as Appendix A to this notice.
Dated: August 2, 1999.
Cardell Cooper,
Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development.
