(a) The Department shall review and approve or disapprove all loan applications for funds from the Fund involving assistance to rental units, as well as all assumptions and extensions of such loans.
(b) At the discretion of the Department, loan applications from owner-occupants or extensions of such loans may be reviewed in their entirety and are subject to approval by the Department.
(c) Any time during the operation of the program, the Department may request or perform a review or financial audit of any and all phases of the local entity's program operation. The local entity shall provide any requested documentation related to monitoring and enforcing the Standard Agreement.
(d) Any person or owner affected by this program may petition the Department to review any phase of implementation of the local entity's program. Grievances may relate to, but not be limited to, eligibility, terms of tenancy, or authorized expenditures. Review undertaken by the Department under this section may be informal or may follow the procedures outlined in Government Code Section 1180 et seq. at the option of the Department. Failure to petition the Department shall not limit a complainant's right to seek judicial review; nor shall the Department's review pursuant to a petition preclude de novo judicial review.
(e) Reports describing the progress and problems of the local entity's program, including loan disbursals and grant expenditures, if any, shall be submitted to the Department until such time as the local entity has loaned all of its commitment from the Fund. Reports shall be submitted at intervals determined by the Department. The Department may provide local entities with the format for such reports.
(f) As a result of any Department findings of noncompliance resulting from reviews pursuant to subsections (a)-(e), the Department may require that the local entity remedy the situation in order to remain in the program.
