Universal Citation: TN Comp Rules and Regs 0770-03-02-.02
Current through September 24, 2024
(1) Public Notice to Owners.
(a) Promptly after
receiving the contract authority from HUD, and thereafter as may be necessary,
the Agency must make known to the public through publication in a newspaper of
general circulation as well as through minority media and other suitable means,
the availability and nature of the Program. The notice must inform Owners where
they may apply for the Program and must be made in accordance with the Agency's
HUD-approved equal opportunity housing plan and with the HUD guidelines for
fair housing requiring the use of the equal housing opportunity logotype,
statement and slogan.
(2) Owner Proposals.
(a) The Agency must develop a proposal format
for Owners wishing to apply for participation in the Program which will
require, at a minimum, the following information:
1. Name, address and phone number of
Owner,
2. Address of building to be
rehabilitated and date of construction,
3. Number, type (elevator/nonelevator) and
bedroom size of unit(s) to be rehabilitated,
4. Rent(s) charged by bedroom size during 18
months,
5. Number and size of
vacant unit(s),
6. Number of units
the Owner proposes to be assisted after rehabilitation by bedroom size and
family characteristics (size and household type) of present tenants,
7. Whether the Owner anticipates that
permanent displacement or temporary relocation of tenants will be necessary and
the anticipated length of any temporary relocation. If temporary relocation is
anticipated, the Owner must indicate willingness to assume the responsibilities
specified in 0770-3-1-.05,
8. A
certification that no tenant has been forced to move without cause in the
twelve month period preceding the submittal of the proposal,
9. The prior participation of the Owner in
HUD Programs, and
10. The Owner's
plans for managing and maintaining the unit(s) under the proposal.
(3) Initial Screening of Proposals.
(a) Tennessee Housing
Development Agency should review all proposals submitted and make an initial
determination, based on the data submitted in the proposal, of those proposals
which are clearly inappropriate or unresponsive to the Agency's advertisement.
For example, if the Agency has certified in its application that no permanent
displacement will be allowed, any proposal which would involve displacement
must be rejected at this stage. Similarly, if the Owner suggests that temporary
relocation exceeding six months will be required to complete the rehabilitation
proposed, that proposal must be rejected. Should the Agency reject a proposal,
the Owner must be notified in writing with a statement of the
reason(s).
