Sec. 1006.301  Eligible families.


    (a) Assistance for eligible housing activities under the Act and 
this part is limited to low-income Native Hawaiian families who are 
eligible to reside on the Hawaiian Home Lands, except as provided under 
paragraphs (b) and (c), of this section.
    (b) Exception to low-income requirement. (1) Other Native Hawaiian 
families. The DHHL may provide assistance for homeownership activities 
and through loan guarantee activities to Native Hawaiian families who 
are not low-income families, as approved by HUD, to address a need for 
housing for those families that cannot be reasonably met without that 
assistance.
    (2) Limitations. HUD approval is required if the DHHL plans to use 
its annual grant amount for assistance in accordance with paragraph 
(b)(1), of this section.
    (c) Other families. The DHHL may provide housing or NHHBG assistance 
to a family that is not low-income and is not composed of Native 
Hawaiians if the DHHL documents that:
    (1) The presence of the family in the housing involved is essential 
to the well-being of Native Hawaiian families; and
    (2) The need for housing for the family cannot be reasonably met 
without the assistance.
    (d) Written policies. The DHHL must develop, follow, and have 
available for review by HUD written policies governing the eligibility, 
admission, and occupancy of families for housing assisted with NHHBG 
funds and governing the selection of families receiving other assistance 
under the Act and this part.
