Notice of Funding Availability for Fiscal Year (FY) 2009; Self-
Help Homeownership Opportunity Program (SHOP); Clarifications and
Technical Corrections
AGENCY: Office of the Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and
Development, HUD.
ACTION: Notice of corrections and clarifications.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: On July 13, 2009, HUD posted its FY2009 SHOP NOFA on the
Grants.gov website. The FY2009 SHOP NOFA makes $26.5 million in
assistance to national and regional nonprofit organizations and
consortia which facilitate and encourage innovative homeownership
opportunities for low-income individuals and families. Through this
document, HUD announces that it has posted a notice that corrects and
clarifies a number of provisions in the FY2009 SHOP NOFA posted on July
13, 2009. Specifically, the notice: (1) Clarifies the requirement for
applicants to reduce energy costs, (2) clarifies the requirement for
font size; (3) clarifies the requirement that the page limit is four
pages for rating factor 2, and (4) corrects a posting error that
resulted in the Tables 1 and 2 being misprinted in the posted document.
The notice making these corrections is available on Grants.gov Web site
http:// apply07.grants.gov/apply/forms_apps_idx.html. A link to
Grants.gov is also available on the HUD Web site at http://www.hud.gov/
offices/adm/grants/fundsavail.cfm.
To permit applicants time to prepare applications that take into
account these changes, HUD is extending the application submission
deadline for the FY2009 SHOP NOFA until September 28, 2009.
