COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANTS
CITIZEN PARTICIPATION REQUIREMENTS
(e) Projects which prevent or elimi-
nate stuns or blight The following
projects and activities will be consid-
ered to prevent or eliminate slums or
blight:
(1) A project in an area which is a
slum, or a blighted, deteriorated, or
deteriorating area. as defined by State
or local law, and in which the appli-
cant undertakes a comprehensive pro-
gram, as defined in § 570.301(c), to
remedy the conditions which qualify
the area as an urban renewal or simi-
lar area. In such cases the applicant
may undertake any otherwise eligible
activity necessary to accomplish its
strategy for upgrading the area. Be-
cause State laws vary. HUD will recog-
nize those State or local laws which
authorize public actions for the pur-
pose of slum and blight prevention
and elimination. It is not necessary
that an area be formally designated an
urban renewal or similar area. but evi-
dence supporting a local determina-
tion that an area meets criteria for
slums and blight must be maintained
in the locality's records.
(2) A project designed to eliminate
detrimental conditions which are scat-
tered or located outside slum or blight-
ed areas. Authorized activities are only
those necessary, to eliminate the spe-
cific conditions of blight or physical
decay, by acquisition of blighted struc-
tures. demolition, historic preserva-
tion, and relocation.
(3) Activities necessary to complete
federally assisted urban renewal pro-
jects which do not principally benefit
ow and moderate -income persons.
(I) Projects designed to meet needs
having a particular urgency. These
are projects which the applicant certi-
fies and the Secretary determines are
'designed to alleviate a serious and im-
mediate threat to the health or wel-
, fare of the community which is of
recentorigin where the applicant is
unable to finance the projects on its
ow'n." and other sources of funding are
not, available. A condition will general -
le be considered to be of recent origin
if it developed or became critical
within 18 months preceding the appli-
cation`for funds.
(g)'Determining benefits to low- and
moderate -income persons.
(1) In determining the amount of
program funds which principally bene-
fit low- and moderate -income persons,
the costs of administration and plan-
ning cited in § 570.205 may be excluded
as they will generally be assumed to
benefit low- and moderate income per-
sons in the same proportion as the re-
mainder of the grant.
(2) The amount of any program
funds to be applied to the repayment
of urban renewal temporary loans may
also be excluded.
(3) Funds budgeted for contingencies
and/or local option activities may also
be excluded: such funds shall be ex-
pended in such a manner that the pro-
09:0619

applicant shall also provide adequate
information to citizens. hold public
hearings to obtain views of citizens,
and provide citizens an opportunity to
comment on the applicant's communi-
ty development performance. Nothing
in these requirements, however. shall
be construed to restrict the responsi-
bility and authority of the applicant
for the development of the application
and the execution of its Community
Development Program.
(b) Written citizen participation
plan. The applicant shall prepare a
written citizen participation plan that
provides procedures by which each of
the requirements set forth in the fol-
lowing paragraphs will be implement-
ed. The plan shall go into effect no
later than August 1. 1978. The provi-
sions concerning citizen involvement
in implementing and assessing the pro-
gram apply to activities that are on-
going as of that date. as well as to all
future activities. The plan shall
remain in effect until all activities as-
sisted under this Part are completed,
or until it is superseded by a new plan.
Upon request. by HUD, the plan shall
be submitted to HUD to aid in the
handling of complaints and to facili-
tate monitoring and evaluation.
(c) Standards of participation. The
applicant shall provide a preens of
citizen participation at the cornr::un-
itywide level with regard to the overall
application and program. Applicants
with populations of 50,000 or more
shall also provide a process of citizen
participation at the neighborhood
level in areas where a significant
amount of activity is proposed or on-
going. These processes shall meet the
following standards:
(1) All aspects of citizen participa-
tion shall be conducted in an open
manner, with freedom of access for all
interested persons;
(2) There shall be involvement of
low -and moderate-Incor ne persons.
members of minority groups, residents
of areas where a significant amount of
activity is proposed or ongoing. the el-
derly. the handicapped. the business
community. and civic groups who are
concerned about the program. Where
the applicant chooses to establish. or
has established. a general commun-
itywide citizen advisory committee.
there shall be substantial representa-
tion of low- and moderate -income citi-
zens and members of minority groups.
Similarly, where the applicant chooses
to establish or recognize neighborhood
advisory committees in areas where
low- and moderate -income persons or
members of minority groups reside.
there shall be substantial representa-
tion of such persons;
(3) The applicant shall make reason-
able efforts to ensure continuity of in-
volvement of citizens or citizen organi-
zations throughout all stages of the
program;
(4) Citizens shall be provided ade-
quate and timely information, so as to
gram will continue to meet the re-
quirements of this section.
(4) If a project or activity meets the
definition in paragraph (d) of princi-
pally benefitting low- and moderate -
income persons, the cost of the project
or activity may be determined to bene-
fit low- and moderate -income persons.
This includes projects to prevent or
eliminate slums and blight and pro-
jects designed to meet a need having a
particular urgency where such pro-
jects principally benefit low- and mod-
erate -income persons under paragraph
(d).
(5) If a project is designed to prevent
or eliminate slums or blight or to meet
needs having a particular urgency and
does not also principally benefit low -
and moderate -income persons under
the provisions in paragraph (d), a par-
ticular activity (such as a rehabilita-
tion loan program with Income limits)
within that project may nevertheless
be counted in determining the amount
of prcgram funds which benefit low -
and moderate -income persons.
(6) In determining whether a pro-
posed project will actually benefit Iow-
and moderate -Income persons, the
nature of the needs identified, the re-
lationship of the project to meeting
those needs, and the net effect of the
completed project shall be considered.
Thus, mere location of an activity in a
low- or moderate-inccme area does not
conclusively demonstrate that a pro-
ject or activity benefits lower income
persons. A neighborhood revitalization
effort which creates improved housing
and better living environment, princi-
pally for low- and moderate -income
persons. would be counted as such.
Where such a program results in a
change in the income characteristics
of the area so that a majority of the
ultimate beneficiaries are higher
income persons, the program would
not be counted as principally benefit -
tint; low- and moderate -income per-
sons.
(h) Mitigating adverse effects.
Where the program will result in
direct or indirect displacement or
other hardships to low- and moderate -
income persons, the applicant shall
take appropriate steps to minimize
such displacement or hardships. Sec-
tion 570.304(b)(2) requires the appli-
cant to include in its community devel-
opment plan the actions it will take to
assist low- and moderate -income per-
sons to remain in existing locations
when they prefer to do so, and to miti-
gate adverse effects on such persons as
a result of neighborhood revitalization
activities.
