                 TITLE 24--HOUSING AND URBAN DEVELOPMENT

 

  CHAPTER V--OFFICE OF ASSISTANT SECRETARY FOR COMMUNITY PLANNING AND 

        DEVELOPMENT, DEPARTMENT OF HOUSING AND URBAN DEVELOPMENT

 

PART 583_SUPPORTIVE HOUSING PROGRAM--Table of Contents

 

              Subpart C_Application and Grant Award Process

 

Sec.  583.235  Renewal grants.



    (a) General. Grants made under this part, and grants made under 

subtitles C and D (the Supportive Housing Demonstration and SAFAH, 

respectively) of the Stewart B. McKinney Homeless Assistance Act as in 

effect before October 28, 1992, may be renewed on a noncompetitive basis 

to continue ongoing leasing, operations, and supportive services for 

additional years beyond the initial funding period. To be considered for 

renewal funding for leasing, operating costs, or supportive services, 

recipients must submit a request for such funding in the form specified 

by HUD, must meet the requirements of this part, and must submit 

requests within the time period established by HUD.

    (b) Assistance available. The first renewal will be for a period of 

time not to exceed the difference between the end of the initial funding 

period and ten years from the date of initial occupancy or the date of 

initial service provision, as applicable. Any subsequent renewal will be 

for a period of time not to exceed five years. Assistance during each 

year of the renewal period, subject to maintenance of effort 

requirements under Sec.  583.150(a) may be for:

    (1) Up to 50 percent of the actual operating and leasing costs in 

the final year of the initial funding period;

    (2) Up to the amount of HUD assistance for supportive services in 

the final year of the initial funding period; and

    (3) An allowance for cost increases.

    (c) HUD review. (1) HUD will review the request for renewal and will 

evaluate the recipient's performance in previous years against the plans 

and goals established in the initial application for assistance, as 

amended. HUD will approve the request for renewal unless the recipient 

proposes to serve a population that is not homeless, or the recipient 

has not shown adequate progress as evidenced by an unacceptably slow 

expenditure of funds, or the recipient has been unsuccessful in 

assisting participants in achieving and maintaining independent living. 

In determining the recipient's success in assisting participants to 

achieve and maintain independent living, consideration will be given to 

the level and type of problems of participants. For recipients with a 

poor record of success, HUD will also consider the recipient's 

willingness to accept technical assistance and to make changes suggested 

by technical assistance providers. Other factors which will affect HUD's 

decision to approve a renewal request include the following: a 

continuing history of inadequate financial management accounting 

practices, indications of mismanagement on the part of the recipient, a 

drastic reduction in the population served by the recipient, program 

changes made by the recipient without prior HUD approval, and loss of 

project site.

    (2) HUD reserves the right to reject a request from any organization 

with an outstanding obligation to HUD that is in arrears or for which a 

payment schedule has not been agreed to, or

whose response to an audit finding is overdue or unsatisfactory.

    (3) HUD will notify the recipient in writing that the request has 

been approved or disapproved.
