For consolidated program participants that received an FY 2015 CDBG grant of $500,000 or less, their first AFH must be submitted not later than 270 days prior to the start of the program year that begins on or after January 1, 2018 for which a new consolidated plan is due. In response to public comment, HUD raised the dollar amount of the CDBG grant from $350,000 to $500,000. Through this notice, HUD is extending the AFH submission deadline for the first AFH submission for consolidated program participants that received an FY 2015 CDBG grant of $500,000 or less, or in the case of HOME consortia, whose members collectively received an FY 2015 CDBG grant of $500,000 or less, to the same AFH submission deadline as QPHAs. For consolidated program participants that received an FY 2015 CDBG grant of $500,000 or less, their first AFH is due no later than 270 calendar days prior to the start of the program year that begins on or after January 1, 2019, for which a new consolidated plan is due. Through this notice, HUD also advises that the AFH submission deadline for program participants that received an FY 2015 CDBG grant of $500,000 or less also applies to new consolidated program participants that received a small CDBG grant in FY 2016, or receive a small CDBG grant in FY 2017 or FY 2018. Consolidated Plan program participants that receive this extension must continue to comply with existing, ongoing obligations to affirmatively further fair housing. Until a consolidated plan program participant has submitted its first AFH, it will continue to provide the AFFH Consolidated Plan certification in accordance with the regulations that existed prior to August 17, 2015. (See 24 CFR 5.160(3).) The prior certification provides that program participants will conduct an analysis to identify impediments (AI) to fair housing choice within the jurisdiction, take appropriate actions to overcome the effects of any impediments identified through that analysis, and maintain records reflecting sradovich on DSK3GMQ082PROD with NOTICES Information collection Number of respondents the analysis and actions. For Consolidated Plan program participants that are starting a new 3–5 year Consolidated Plan cycle that begins before their due date for an AFH or for Consolidated Plan program participants that otherwise have old or out-of-date AIs, the AI should continue to be updated in accordance with the Fair Housing Planning Guide until those Consolidated Plan program participants convert to the new AFFH process.
