SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Emergency Capital Repair Grants Program
is authorized by Section 202(b) of the Housing Act of 1959 (12 U.S.C.
1701q-2). Section 202b was amended to provide grants for ``substantial
capital repairs to eligible multifamily projects with elderly tenants
that are needed to rehabilitate, modernize, or retrofit aging
structures, common areas or individual dwelling units.''
On May 22, 2006, at 71 FR 29538, HUD published a notice, entitled
``Emergency Capital Repair Grants for Multifamily Housing Projects
Designated for Occupancy by the Elderly,'' which announced the
availability of approximately $30 million in grant funds to make
emergency capital repairs to eligible multifamily projects designated
for occupancy by elderly tenants. HUD accepted applications on a first-
come, first-serve basis and awarded emergency capital repair grants
until available amounts were expended. A notice of funding awards
announcing Emergency Capital Repair Grant funding decisions made by the
Department in Fiscal Year 2006 was published on April 3, 2007, at 72 FR
15896. The amount awarded in FY 2006 was less than the total amount
made available in the May 22, 2006, notice, and the Department has
continued to make awards on a first-come, first-serve basis in FY 2007.
This notice announces the additional funding decisions under the May
22, 2006, notice made by the Department in Fiscal Year 2007.
The Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance number for this program
is 14.315.
The Emergency Capital Repair Grant is designed to provide funds to
make emergency capital repairs to eligible multifamily projects owned
by private nonprofit entities designated for occupancy by elderly
tenants. The capital repair needs must relate to items that present an
immediate threat to the health, safety, and quality of life of the
tenants. The intent of these grants is to provide one-time assistance
for emergency items that could not be absorbed within the project's
operating budget and other project resources.
A total of $12,454,999 was awarded to 53 projects and 5,698 units.
In accordance with section 102(a)(4)(C) of the Department of Housing
and Urban Development Reform Act of 1989 (103 Stat. 1987, 42 U.S.C.
3545), the Department is publishing the grantees and amounts of the
awards in Appendix A of this document.
Dated: November 20, 2007.
Brian D. Montgomery,
Assistant Secretary for Housing--Federal Housing Commissioner.
