Congress continues to provide the U.S.
Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) with funding to
distressed cities and their non-profit partners. In order to carry
out this task in the most effective and efficient manner, HUD, in
accordance with the relevant statutes and regulations, will run
competitions to determine the most qualified candidates to provide
that technical assistance. The information collected through
responses to this Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) is necessary
to appropriately and objectively identify competition winners and
manage the expenditure of grant funds. The administrative
requirements that authorize the collection of this information are
contained within 2 C.F.R. Part 200, which governs grants and
cooperative agreements. These regulations address activities and
information that must be provided by grant applicants and awardees,
as well as those actions that HUD must take, and information HUD
must review, during the pre-award, award, and post-selection phases
of the competition and the management of the grants.
US Code:

USC 1701z Name of Law: Research and Demonstrations
HUD utilized the information
collected through the responses to two prior NOFOs to determine the
most qualified organizations to provide technical assistance to
help distressed communities adopt effective, efficient, and
sustainable financial management practices, build capacity for
financial management, economic revitalization, affordable housing,
and disaster recovery, and improve knowledge of federal development
programs. HUD will continue to use the information collected for
this purpose.
