SuperNOFA for HUD's Discretionary Grant Programs, beginning at 73 FR
27032, in the issue of May 12, 2008, the following corrections are
made.
1. Section 202 Supportive Housing for the Elderly Program
On page 27296, Overview Information, Section D, first column, the
Funding Opportunity Number is corrected to read as follows:
D. Funding Opportunity Number: FR-5200-N-26; OMB Approval Number is
2502-0267.
On page 27310, Section IV.E.5., HUD is correcting the second
sentence of this paragraph to read as follows:
``Under 31 U.S.C. Section 1551, no funds can be disbursed fro the
account after September 30, 2016.''
On page 27313, Section V.A.3. Rating Factor 3, Soundness of
Approach, HUD is adding the following rating factor:
m. (-1). The site(s) is not permissively zoned for the intended
use.
On page 27316, Section VI.C.1., second and third paragraphs, center
column, HUD is clarifying the recording requirements using the Logic
Model to read as follows:
``1. The Program Outcome Logic Model (Form HUD-96010) must be
completed indicating the proposed measures against the proposed
activities/output and proposed outcome(s) for the appropriate year. The
proposed measures should be entered in the ``Pre'' column of the form.
The Logic Model has been designed to clearly identify the stages of the
development process and it must present a realistic annual projection
of outputs and outcomes that demonstrates your full understanding of
the development process. Using the ``Year One'' through ``Year Three''
tabs on the Logic Model, you must demonstrate your ability to ensure
that the proposed measures will result in the timely development of
your project. To provide for greater consistency in reporting, you must
include all activities and outcomes excepted per year of the period of
performance. Note: The reported outcome of an identified activity/
output may be realized in a different year.
The Logic Model will capture information in two stages. Stage one
will demonstrate your ability to develop the project within the
required timeframe. This stage will capture data that relates to
initial closing, construction, and final closing. Stage one will
require the submission of a completed form HUD-96010, Logic Model on an
annual basis, beginning with the date of the Agreement Letter and
concluding with the date of Final Closing. At the time of the Project
Planning Conference, HUD and the applicant will finalize the services
and activities in association with this Logic Model and the development
timeline. On an annual basis, applicants will report against the
finalized logic model by documenting the achieved measures in the
``Post'' column. (Note: Applicants are not required to complete the YTD
(year-to-date) column.) The final reporting requirement for the Logic
Model will require that the applicant use the ``Total'' worksheet to
fully document the activities and outcomes as well as the associated
measures that have occurred during the period of performance. In
addition, a response to each of the program management evaluation
questions is required at time of final report.
The second stage will require the Owner to submit a completed form
HUD-96010, Logic Model on an annual basis, beginning one year after the
date of the final logic model submission that was required in stage one
and concluding at the conclusion of the mortgage. Stage two will
require the Owner to document the services/activities that are made
available to
[[Page 32594]]
tenants and the expected outcomes and measures of such services.''
2. Section 811 Supportive Housing for Persons With Disabilities
(Section 811 Programs), Beginning at Page 27319
On page 27340, section V.A.5., first column, HUD is deleting
paragraphs c and d.
On page 27342, Section VI.C.1., second and third paragraphs, center
column, center column, HUD is clarifying the recording requirements
