In 1995, HUD created the Consolidated Plan to serve as the planning document (comprehensive housing affordability strategy and community development plan) of state or local grantee governments and an application for funding under any of the Community Planning and Development formula grant programs: the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), HOME Investments Partnership (HOME), Emergency Solutions Grants (ESG), and Housing Opportunities for Persons with Aids (HOPWA). 24 CFR Part 91 contains the regulations that set forth the Consolidated Plan submission requirements. This rule is being revised as a result of changes in the Emergency Solutions Grant program. The ESG Interim Rule includes both changes to the Emergency Shelter Grant regulations at 24 CFR Part 576 and conforming changes to the Consolidated Plan regulations at 24 CFR Part 91.

The Consolidated Plan regulations require grantees to complete and submit the SF-424 (the standard face sheet for federal applications and pre-applications), as well as the appropriate certifications (state or non-state).
