Publication Date: 12/10/2010

Summary: HUD announces the availability on its website of the applicant information, submission deadlines, funding criteria, and other  requirements for HUD's Fiscal Year (FY) 2010 Emergency Capital Repair Grants for Multifamily Housing Projects Designated for Occupancy by the Elderly NOFA. This NOFA announces the availability of approximately $5 million in FY2010, grant funds to make emergency capital repairs to eligible multifamily projects owned by private nonprofit entities that are 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, and where the tenants' continued occupancy in the immediate near future would be jeopardized by a delay in initiating the proposed cure.

The notice providing information regarding the application process, funding criteria and eligibility requirements can be found using the Department of Housing and Urban Development agency link on the Grants.gov/Find Web site at http://www.grants.gov/search/agency.do.
