With the September 30, 2015 deadline approaching, HUD is reminding the 42 NSP2 grantees of the waiver that allows them to draw Line of Credit funds before expending Program Income. This waiver applies
only to the 42 NSP2 grants below because they had funds remaining in their Lines of Credit. These grantees face serious challenges in expending their remaining Line of Credit Funds before the deadline of September 30, 2015 when all remaining NSP2 Line of Credit funds will be recaptured. Loss of the grant funds would reduce the ability of these grantees to invest in declining neighborhoods. Over 1,000 homes could go untreated if the funds stay locked in the Line of Credit.
View a copy of the waiver as well as directions for how to access the Line of Credit funds via DRGR.
Please Note:
- Only the 42 NSP2 grants listed below have received the waiver, since NSP2 is the only grant that faces a sweep of funds from Lines of Credit on September 30, 2015.
- The waiver applies only to the 42 grantees’ NSP2 grants. The first in first out rule continues to apply to all NSP1 and NSP3 grants.
- NSP1 and NSP3 grantees do not face a recapture of their Lines of Credit.
- NSP1 and NSP3 have no deadline for expending funds left in their Lines of Credit, and will not be granted a waiver of the first in first out rule.
- NSP2 grantees who want to take advantage of this waiver should carefully review the DRGR instructions and ask their field office or DRGR AAQ any questions they may have before they begin the process.
