Burden Increase Due to:

Burden decreases because of Program Change due to Agency Discretion: No

Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: Program Change: 1. Under the Implementation Grants, the original emergency submittal only included the first round of the competition, and the leveraging forms and documentation were only required for the second round of competition. Going forward there will only be one round of competition. Therefore, the leveraging forms and documentation are added to the collection. The forms added are Housing Leverage, Supportive Services Leverage, Neighborhood Leverage – Anticipatory Resources, Neighborhood Resources Leverage. Applicants will provide the backup documentation. The additional forms add 500 hours to the burden. 2. Under the planning grants, the application data form cover sheet and the application data form: existing units have been combined into one for which is now named the key eligibility data form. The combination of these two forms reduces the burden by 100 hours. Adjustment: 1. The previous collection was based on anticipated submittals. The actual submittal of implementation grants was less than anticipated; therefore the collection has been adjusted to reflect the actual submittals of approximately 50 submittals. Therefore, the burden hours have been reduced by 2,904 hrs.
