Opportunity Summary:
This posting is not a grant you can apply to and it does not provide any money by itself. Instead, it is a guidance notice from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) that was published to help organizations prepare for HUDs competitive discretionary grant competitions in fiscal year 2010. The purpose is to let potential applicants read and understand HUDs standard, government-wide application rules and HUD-specific policy requirements before the individual FY 2010 program NOFAs were released. In practical terms, it is a heads-up document meant to reduce surprises, improve application quality, and help applicants plan their projects, partnerships, and documentation in advance.
The notice centers on what HUD calls the "General Section" for its FY 2010 NOFAs. HUD often issues many separate NOFAs for different programs, but the General Section acts like a common rulebook that applies across those competitions. By publishing this General Section early, HUD aimed to make its overall expectations clear ahead of time, including how applications must be formatted and submitted, what broad standards HUD uses when reviewing proposals, and what baseline compliance items applicants should be ready to meet. The posting also highlights updates to HUD policy priorities that flow from HUDs Strategic Plan for FY 2010 through FY 2015, meaning applicants are expected to align proposals with the agency direction and priorities for that multi-year period.
Another key point is that the notice discusses submission requirements for FY 2010. While the specific requirements for each program competition would still be laid out in the individual NOFAs, this notice is meant to cover cross-cutting requirements that applicants repeatedly run into across HUD discretionary programs. For organizations that regularly pursue HUD funding, the value of the notice is mainly in planning: it signals what HUD will emphasize, what kinds of threshold requirements are likely to matter, and what administrative steps may be needed to submit a compliant application once program-specific NOFAs open.
Eligibility is intentionally not defined in detail in this posting because it is not tied to a single program. The notice explains that eligibility, eligible activities, program-specific requirements, and selection criteria are provided in the individual program NOFAs when they are published. It also includes an important clarification about who HUD funds through this competitive process: HUD does not directly fund individuals through its formula programs or through the competitive NOFA process, so applicants should generally expect that eligible applicants will be organizations, public entities, local governments, nonprofits, or similar institutions depending on the program competition. The exact list of eligible applicants is deferred to each NOFA.
From an administrative standpoint, the opportunity record identifies the posting as "Other" rather than a standard grant competition, with no cost sharing or matching requirement noted because there is no actual award being offered here. The posting was made on June 7, 2010, with a listed closing date of December 31, 2010, but that date functions more like an end date for the informational posting rather than a true application deadline. The repeated statement "THERE IS NO FUNDING OR APPLICATION ASSOCIATED WITH THIS POSTING" is the central message applicants are expected to understand so they do not waste time looking for an application package tied to this listing.
For prospective applicants, the practical next step suggested by the posting is to monitor HUDs Funds Available website for the release of the actual FY 2010 program NOFAs. Those program-specific NOFAs are where an applicant would find the real funding amounts, the authorized activities, the required forms and attachments, the rating factors, and the submission window. For help accessing the full announcement, the notice provides a contact point at HUDs Office of Departmental Grants Management and Oversight, with a phone number (202-708-0667) and an email contact option for inquiries.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
1) Is this posting a grant that I can apply to?
No. This posting is not a grant application opportunity and it is not a funding competition. It is an informational guidance notice from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD).
2) Does this posting provide any funding or money by itself?
No. The notice repeatedly states that there is no funding associated with this posting and no award will be made based on it.
3) What is the purpose of this HUD notice?
The purpose is to help organizations prepare for HUD's competitive discretionary grant competitions in fiscal year (FY) 2010 by explaining standard application rules (including government-wide requirements) and HUD-specific policy requirements before the individual FY 2010 program NOFAs were released.
4) What does HUD mean by the "General Section" for FY 2010 NOFAs?
The "General Section" is a common set of rules and expectations that HUD uses across multiple FY 2010 Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) competitions. HUD issues separate NOFAs for different programs, and the General Section functions like a shared rulebook that applies broadly across those competitions.
5) Why was the General Section published early?
HUD published it early to reduce surprises and improve application quality by giving potential applicants advance notice of cross-cutting requirements and expectations that tend to apply across HUD discretionary programs.
6) What kinds of information does this notice cover?
It focuses on broad, cross-cutting guidance such as how applications must be formatted and submitted, how HUD generally reviews proposals, and what baseline compliance items applicants should be prepared to meet once program-specific NOFAs are released.
7) Does this notice include program-specific details like funding amounts or eligible activities?
No. Program-specific details (such as funding amounts, eligible activities, required forms and attachments, rating factors, and submission windows) are provided in the individual program NOFAs, not in this General Section guidance notice.
8) Where will eligibility requirements be defined?
Eligibility is not defined in detail in this posting because it is not tied to a single program. Eligibility requirements are provided in each individual program NOFA when it is published.
9) Are individuals eligible to receive HUD funding through this competitive NOFA process?
The notice clarifies that HUD does not directly fund individuals through its formula programs or through the competitive NOFA process. Applicants should generally expect that eligible applicants will be organizations or public entities (such as local governments, nonprofits, and similar institutions), depending on the specific program NOFA.
10) What should organizations do with this notice if they plan to apply for HUD funding?
Organizations can use it for planning by reviewing likely threshold requirements and administrative steps, aligning project plans with HUD expectations, and preparing documentation and partnerships in advance of the program-specific NOFAs.
11) Does the notice mention HUD policy priorities applicants should align with?
Yes. The notice highlights updates to HUD policy priorities that flow from HUD's Strategic Plan for FY 2010 through FY 2015, indicating applicants are expected to align proposals with HUD's agency direction and priorities for that period.
12) Is there a cost sharing or matching requirement for this posting?
No. The opportunity record notes no cost sharing or matching requirement because this posting is not an actual funding opportunity and no award is being offered here.
13) Why does the opportunity record list a closing date if there is no application?
The posting shows an opening date (June 7, 2010) and a closing date (December 31, 2010), but the closing date functions as an end date for the informational posting rather than a true application deadline, since there is no application package tied to this listing.
14) What is the practical next step if I want to find real FY 2010 HUD funding opportunities?
The notice suggests monitoring HUD's Funds Available website for the release of the actual FY 2010 program NOFAs. Those NOFAs contain the real competition details and instructions.
15) Where can I get help or ask questions about accessing the full announcement?
The notice provides a contact point at HUD's Office of Departmental Grants Management and Oversight. Phone: 202-708-0667. An email contact option is also provided for inquiries.
16) What type of opportunity is this classified as?
It is identified as "Other" rather than a standard grant competition, reflecting that it is a guidance notice and not an application-based funding opportunity.
17) What does "THERE IS NO FUNDING OR APPLICATION ASSOCIATED WITH THIS POSTING" mean in practice?
It means there is no application to submit for this listing, no funds will be awarded from it, and applicants should not spend time searching for an application package connected to this specific posting. The relevant applications will be contained in the separate, program-specific NOFAs.
18) When will the actual application requirements be available?
The notice indicates that actual application requirements will be available when the individual FY 2010 program NOFAs are released, because those documents contain the program-specific requirements and submission windows.
