As an award recipient, can I establish more strict requirements than HUD established?
Yes. HUD is providing municipal and state governments with discretion to establish requirements that further target community needs. Each may elect to implement more stringent targeting and/or eligibility requirements as long as all program participants meet the minimum eligibility criteria and the award recipients comply with all local and federal requirements. For example, award recipients may require participants to be at 30% or less of Area Median Income (AMI) or may offer only one or two of the menu of available services.
