Opportunity Summary:
The "General Section to HUD's Fiscal Year 2017 Notice(s) of Funding Availability for Discretionary Programs (General Section)" (Funding Opportunity Number FR 6100 N 01) is a cross-cutting set of rules and standard requirements that apply to HUD's competitive discretionary grant programs for FY 2017. Rather than being a single program that awards money on its own, the General Section functions like a universal instruction and compliance framework that applicants must follow in addition to the specific requirements found in the separate Program NOFA for the particular HUD grant they are seeking. In practical terms, an application is only eligible for consideration if it satisfies both: (1) the General Section requirements and (2) the program-specific NOFA requirements.
This opportunity is categorized as a discretionary grant under the housing funding activity category, and it is associated with CFDA number 14.506. HUD published it on July 8, 2016, and the original closing date was January 31, 2017. Applications were required to be submitted electronically by 11:59:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the applicable due date listed. Because the General Section is not itself a stand-alone pot of money, the posted award ceiling and expected number of awards are shown as 0; actual funding levels, award sizes, and the number of awards would be determined within each individual Program NOFA that references and incorporates the General Section.
Eligibility is broadly defined and includes most common applicant types that participate in HUD competitions, subject to any additional clarifications contained in the full text. Eligible applicants include state, county, and city or township governments; special district governments; independent school districts; public and state-controlled institutions of higher education; private institutions of higher education; federally recognized Native American tribal governments; public housing authorities and Indian housing authorities; Native American tribal organizations that are not federally recognized tribal governments; nonprofit organizations both with and without 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education in those nonprofit categories); for-profit organizations other than small businesses; small businesses; and individuals. The listing also indicates an "unrestricted" category, meaning the competition may be open to any entity type listed, depending on the specific program NOFA and any additional eligibility language.
The key takeaway is that the General Section is HUD's standardized baseline for how to apply and how HUD will evaluate and administer awards across its FY 2017 discretionary programs. Applicants are expected to treat it as mandatory reading alongside the program-specific NOFA, since it typically governs common elements such as thresholds, application submission rules, basic eligibility principles, required certifications and assurances, and other government-wide and HUD-wide administrative conditions that can affect whether an application is considered, rated, or ultimately awarded.
