§ 12771. Set-aside for community housing development organizations
Statutory text
In general
For a period of 24 months after funds under part A are made available to a jurisdiction, the jurisdiction shall reserve not less than 15 percent of such funds for investment only in housing when a community housing development organization materially participates in the ownership or development of that housing, as determined by the Secretary. Each participating jurisdiction shall make reasonable efforts to identify community housing development organizations that are capable or can reasonably be expected to become capable of carrying out elements of the jurisdiction’s housing strategy and to encourage such community housing development organizations to do so. If during the first 24 months of its participation under this subchapter, a participating jurisdiction is unable to identify a sufficient number of capable community housing development organizations, then up to 20 percent of the funds allocated to that jurisdiction under this section, but not to exceed $150,000, may be made available to carry out activities that develop the capacity of community housing development organizations in that jurisdiction. A participating jurisdiction is authorized to enter into contracts with community housing development organizations to carry out this section.
Recapture and reuse
If any funds reserved under subsection (a) remain uninvested for a period of 24 months, the Secretary shall make such funds available to the participating jurisdiction for any eligible activities under this subchapter without regard to whether a community housing development organization materially participates in the use of such funds.
Direct reallocation criteria
Insofar as practicable, direct reallocations under this section shall be made according to the selection criteria established under section 12747(c) of this title.
