Only places that show housing supply growth are eligible
What the document says“that has demonstrated an objective improvement in housing supply growth, as determined by the Secretary, whose methodology for determining such growth is published in the Federal Register to allow for public comment not less than 90 days before the date on which the notice of funding opportunity is made available; or”
The section defines an eligible entity as a metropolitan city, urban county, unit of general local government, or Indian tribe, as those terms are used in section 102 of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974, that has shown an objective improvement in housing supply growth as the Secretary determines. The Secretary's method for determining growth must be published in the Federal Register for public comment at least 90 days before the notice of funding opportunity goes out.
What the document actually says“that has demonstrated an objective improvement in housing supply growth, as determined by the Secretary, whose methodology for determining such growth is published in the Federal Register to allow for public comment not less than 90 days before the date on which the notice of funding opportunity is made available; or”
A place must show its housing supply really grew. The housing agency decides how that is measured. It must post the method in the Federal Register. That must happen at least 90 days before the money is offered.
The Federal Register is the daily notice paper of the government. A method posted there is open to view. People can then write in about it. A place that has not grown its housing is left out.
No action is recorded against this proposal. That is not evidence that none has been taken, and nobody has yet read it against the record. See what the tracker does not yet cover.
