- Additional Information on Eligibility
- 1. You must be a state government, a unit of general local government, a nonprofit entity or consortium of nonprofit entities. You must demonstrate the capacity and experience to carry out a program of NSP2 activities. 2. Nonprofit entities are public and private nonprofit organizations, including governmental entities, that are organized under state, local or tribal laws for other than profit-making activities. Public nonprofits include states, local governments, Indian tribes, and public housing authorities. 3. State and units of general local government are defined in the CDBG program in 42 U.S.C. 5202. 4. A consortium is defined as two or more private or public nonprofit organizations that collectively have the capacity and experience to carry out the proposed NSP2 activities in the target geography and that enter into an agreement to submit a single application for NSP2 funding. One organization must be designated as the lead applicant. The lead applicant must submit the application, and, if selected for funding, execute the NSP2 agreement with HUD and assume responsibility for the grant on behalf of the consortium in compliance with all program requirements. 5. An eligible applicant may have a for-profit partner(s) who will assist in carrying out NSP2 activities. If you are applying with a for-profit partner, you will submit a firm commitment executed and dated by each for-profit partner with your application. All for-profit partners must be identified in your application. The integrated application must reflect your programs as a single program including your partner(s) and may only briefly summarize the individual partners' past experiences in factor 2. All other components of the application must reflect an overall program design. HUD will not consider individual program designs of partners in scoring an application. Second, prior to providing NSP2 funds to a for-profit partner, you must carry out a cost analysis and enter into a separate written agreement with each such partner. The agreement must include the applicable requirements described in Appendix 1, paragraph U, and set forth your partner's responsibilities for performance and compliance with NSP2. 6. If you are a consortium, you will enter into agreements at two points. First, a consortium agreement, submitted with the application, must be executed by all consortium members. The agreement must require the members to cooperatively carry out the NSP2 program in the approved application, and must authorize one member to act in a representative capacity for all members of the consortium (lead member) and assume overall responsibility for ensuring that the consortium's NSP2 program is carried out in compliance with all NSP2 requirements. The consortium agreement must state that the consortium funding agreements will be executed no later than December 1, 2009. If the lead member is a private nonprofit organization, but the consortium members include a state, Indian tribe, or unit of general local government, the agreement must authorize the member state, Indian tribe, or unit of general local government to assume all responsibility for environmental review, decision-making, and action for proposed projects within its jurisdiction on behalf of the consortium in accordance with the requirements of 24 CFR Part 58. All consortium members must be identified in your application. The integrated application must reflect all consortium members' programs as a single program and may only briefly summarize the individual consortium members' past experiences in factor 2. All other components of the application must reflect an overall consortium program design. HUD will not consider individual program designs of consortium members in scoring an application. Second, after selection, but before the grant is awarded, the lead member must enter into a separate consortium funding agreement with each member of the consortium.
