CHOICE NEIGHBORHOODS – IMPLEMENTATION GRANTS
Resident and Community Involvement Certification
As part of your application for Choice Neighborhoods Implementation Grant funding, you, as the
executive officer authorized to sign on behalf of your organization, must certify to the following and
complete the form in its entirety. By signing this form, you are stating that to the best of your
knowledge and belief, the certification is true and correct.
Lead Applicant:
Name of Targeted Public and/or Assisted Housing Site(s):

Resident and Community Involvement threshold requirement is as follows:
General. In accordance with section 24(e)(2)(D) of the 1937 Act, applicants must involve affected
residents at the beginning and during the planning process for the transformation program, prior to the
submission of an application. You are required to involve the affected public and/or assisted housing
residents in the planning process and implementation of your Transformation Plan. This involvement
must be continuous from the beginning of the planning process through the implementation and
management of the grant, if awarded.
(a) Resident Meeting. You must conduct at least two meetings with the residents of the target public
and/or assisted housing as you develop the Transformation Plan.
(b) Public Meetings. You must conduct at least one public meeting with residents of the target public
and/or assisted housing and the broader community to discuss the proposed Transformation Plan.
(c) Allowable Time Period for Meetings.
(i) Each of these meetings must take place on different days.
(ii) At least one public meeting, which included representation from the target public and/or
assisted housing residents and the broader community, must have taken place at the beginning of
the transformation planning process. This meeting can have occurred prior to the publication of
this NOFA, but must have anticipated the project proposed in this application.
(iii) At least one meeting must have been held after the publication date of this NOFA.
(d) Content and Structure. Over the course of these meetings, the issues listed below must have
been identified (i.e., all issues need not be addressed at each meeting). Residents and community
members must be given opportunities to express their support or lack of support for the proposals
presented and given the power to affect changes impacting their living environment. Resident
decision making must be recorded and documented. Such documentation might include voting rolls,
minutes of meetings, and recorded public discussions.
(i) The Choice Neighborhoods planning and implementation process;
(ii) The proposed physical plan, including the extent of proposed demolition or rehabilitation of
existing structures, and if applicable, proposed site design. If you are also proposing to convert
public housing units via RAD, that must be discussed as well;
(iii) Planned supportive service activities;
(iv) Other proposed transformation activities;
(v) Relocation issues, such as relocation planning, mobility counseling, relocation assistance, and
maintaining the Choice Neighborhoods community planning process during the demolition and
reconstruction phases;

who are recipients of government assistance for housing, and to business concerns that provide
economic opportunities to low- and very low-income persons in the area in which the project is
located. See the Section 3 regulations at 24 CFR part 135.
