Public reporting burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 0.5 hour (30 minutes) per response, including the time
for reviewing instructions, searching existing data sources, gathering and maintain the data needed, and completing and reviewing the
collection of information. HUD may not collect this information and you are not required to complete this form, unless it displays a currently
valid OMB control number.
This information collection is necessary to ensure that viable projects are developed. It is important to obtain information from applicants
to assist HUD in determining if nonprofit organizations initially funded continue to have the financial and administrative capacity
needed to develop a project and that the project design meets the needs of the residents. The Department will use this information
to determine if the project meets statutory requirements with respect to the development and operation of the project, as well as
ensuring the continued marketability of the project. This information is required in order to obtain benefits. This information is
considered non-sensitive and no assurance of confidentiality is provided.

The Owner, to the best of its knowledge and belief, hereby assures and certifies that it will comply with respect to the
following:
