The number of grantees was increased from 36 to 48 to reflect changes in number of active grants. • Reduced number of respondents for the Code of Conduct from 36 to 8 as it is rare that grantees need to submit this information and it is only needed at the time of grant funding. • The following forms were removed as they are no longer used: HUD-2993 Acknowledgement of Application Receipt (2577-0259) and Final Financial Status Report (Form SF-269-A). • Burden hours were added to the following forms (.25 hour for each form). These are standard forms all HUD programs use (not specific to Jobs Plus) but burden hours had not been included: SF-424 Application for Federal Assistance (2501-0017); HUD-2880 Applicant Disclosure (2510-0011); SF-LLL- Lobbying (0348-0046); Certification Regarding Lobbying (new to NOFOs, required by HUD); SF424B (new to NOFOs, required by HUD). • Adjusted some burden hours per response to • Added the following as new parts of the NOFO: Schedule, organizational chart and Executive summary documentation. • Added Budget (HUD-50144) for clarity to Non-NOFO section (it used annually for budget updates).
