The information is required to allow
HUD to manage remaining HOPE VI Implementation grants. The
information is also required to obligate grant funds for the HOPE
VI Main Street grant program, in accordance with Section 24 of the
Housing Act of 1937, and to manage the grants that are
awarded.
The program title has changed
from “HOPE VI Application” to “HOPE VI and HOPE VI Main Street
Program,” to better describe this collection. The remaining HOPE VI
Implementation grants account for most of the burden. However, HOPE
VI funds are no longer being appropriated. HOPE VI Main Street
funds are being funded through the Choice Neighborhoods Initiative
appropriations. Collections in support of the HOPE VI
Implementation NOFAs, which ended in 2011, are being deleted from
this ICR, which includes HUD-52860-A, HUD-52774, HUD-52780,
HUD-52785, HUD-52787, HUD-52790, HUD-52797, HUD-52798, HUD-52799,
HUD-52800, SF-424, SF-LLL, HUD-2880, HUD-96010, HUD-96011 and
HUD-52861. The total burden is decreasing from 26,516 hours to
3,980 hours and the cost is decreasing from $1,156,305.00 to
$226,860.
