PUBLIC NOTICE
In accordance with 24 CFR 1003.604, the Comanche Nation Housing Authority is publishing this notice to provide residents and Tribal Citizens information and the opportunity to submit comments regarding our intent to apply for the Indian Community Development Block Grant (ICDBG) Imminent Threat funding provided under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act).
The purpose of this funding is to provide grants to eligible Indian tribes that must be used to prevent, prepare for and respond to the Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). The grant ceiling is $900,000 and grantees are encouraged to expend funds expeditiously and to prioritize their most urgent unaddressed needs.
Eligible activities under this grant must meet one or more of the CARES Act purposes and include, but are not limited to, the following categories:
The Housing Authority is proposing to apply for these funds to be used in the Public Service category by providing emergency payments in the form of rental assistance, mortgage assistance or utility assistance (including internet access to allow children to engage in distance learning) in the amount of $750.00 per household. This emergency assistance would be for the purpose of responding to COVID-19 by preventing homelessness to ensure families are stably housed and have the basic utility services needed to prevent the spread of the disease.
The grant implementation notice was issued on May 15, 2020 and grant applications will be accepted by HUD beginning Monday, June 1st at 3:00 pm ET and awarded on a first-come, first-serve basis. Due to the shortened deadline, please submit your comments via email to: grants@comanchehousing.com Should the Comanche Nation Housing Authority be awarded this grant, information will be published at a later date regarding the guidelines for our Tribal Citizens to apply for assistance.
