Allocation: $1.93 billion to be allocated by competition to grantees to carry out NSP activities; up to 10% of which may be allocated by competition to Grantees to supply "capacity building" and "support" to NSP1 or NSP2 grantees. The Department will withhold 1% for technical assistance and administration of the program.

Eligible Applicants: Eligible entities are states, units of general local government, nonprofit entities, and consortia of nonprofit entities. Any lead applicant may submit a proposal in partnership with one or more for-profit entities.

Competition Design: The Recovery Act directs HUD to will narrow the field of qualified geographies based on need using the NSP Need Calculation Tool (Coming Soon). Proposals from the areas of highest need will be judged on: 1) capacity of the lead applicant to execute projects, 2) leveraging potential, 3) concentration of investment to achieve neighborhood stabilization, and 4) other criteria that the Secretary determines to be appropriate.

Eligible Proposals: Proposals must be designed such that the Grantee expends at least 50% of its award within two years and 100% of its award within three years of the date the award is made. Generally, activities that are eligible for inclusion in the proposals are the same as those eligible under NSP1. The Recovery Act did make several changes to NSP1 eligible uses as follows:

Land bank is redefined to include operational costs and is expanded to included residential properties, not just foreclosed homes.
Limits redevelopment of vacant or demolished property only as housing.
Demolition of public housing is prohibited.

Threshold Requirements: HUD has established a $5 million minimum for successful applications.

Limitations: The share of the award that an applicant may propose to use for demolition activities is limited to 10%, unless the Secretary deems a greater share to be an appropriate response to the local market. Applicants may reserve 10% of the award for administrative expenses, as under NSP1.

Waivers: The Secretary maintains broad waiver authority, except for requirements related to fair housing, non-discrimination, labor standards, and the environment.

Application Deadline: The application deadline date is July 17, 2009. Applications must be received via paper submission to the Robert C. Weaver HUD Headquarters building by 5:00 PM on the deadline date. See NSP2 NOFA for details.
