SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: Capital Magnet Fund
Performance Report.
OMB Number: 1559–NEW.
Type of Review: Regular Review.
Abstract: The Capital Magnet Fund
was established through the Housing
and Economic Recovery Act of 2008
(HERA) (Pub. L. 110–289), as a
competitive grant program administered
by the CDFI Fund. Through CMF, the
CDFI Fund provides financial assistance

Development Financial Institutions
(CDFIs) and qualified Nonprofit
Organizations that have the

development or management of
Affordable Housing, as defined in 12
CFR 1807, as one of their principal
purposes. Capitalized terms not defined
in this Notice (other than titles) have the
meaning set forth in the CMF Interim
Rule (12 CFR 1807). CMF Awards must
be used to attract private financing for
and increase investment in: (i) the
Development, Preservation,
Rehabilitation, and Purchase of
Affordable Housing for primarily
Extremely Low-, Very Low-, and LowIncome Families; and (ii) Economic
Development Activities which, in
conjunction with Affordable Housing
Activities, will implement a Concerted
Strategy to stabilize or revitalize a LowIncome Area or an Underserved Rural
Area. CMF Award Recipients enter into
Assistance Agreements with the CDFI
Fund that set forth required terms and
conditions of the Award, including
reporting and data collection
requirements. The Assistance
Agreement requires the submission of
an annual CMF Performance Report.
The information collected in the CMF
Performance Report is reviewed to
ensure the Recipient’s compliance with
its Performance Goals and contractual
obligations, as well as the overall
performance of the program. Data
collected through the CMF Performance
Report consists of three categories of
data: (1) mandatory data points, (2)
conditionally required data points based
on project characteristics, financing type
or other condition, and (3) optional data
points. For most compliance measures,
AMIS calculates whether the Recipient
is compliant or noncompliant based on
the data reported into the system. When
the system determines that a
noncompliance has occurred, the
Recipient is required to complete an
explanation of noncompliance prior to
submitting the report to the CDFI Fund.
This notice requests PRA approval for
the CMF Performance Report. This
report is a modified version of the
previous CMF Performance Report,
which was under OMB Number 1559–
0036.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
330.
Estimated Annual Time per
Respondent: 20 hours.
Estimated Annual Burden Hours:
6,600 hours.
Request for Comments: Comments
submitted in response to this Notice
will be summarized and/or included in
the request for Office of Management
and Budget approval. All comments will
become a matter of public record and
may be published on the CDFI Fund
website at https://www.cdfifund.gov.
