Meeting Application And Review
Requirements For Block Grants

Under Title I Of The Housing And

Community Development Act Of 1974


Department of Housing and Urban Development

Problems experienced by 23 communities in
preparing, and by the Department in review-
ing, community development block grant
applications during the first program year are
discussed in this report. The problems con-
cern insufficient information in the applica-
tions and the lack of criteria to help the
Department to determine whether the pro-
posed community development and housing
programs have been developed to benefit
low- and moderate-income families. GAO is
making recommendations aimed at solving
these problems.
Subcommittee guidance is needed to clarify
the extent to which, and under what circum-
stances, federally assisted new housing can be
located in areas having high concentrations of
low-income persons, minority populations,
and publicly assisted housing and still comply
with the act's objective of promoting greater
choices of housing opportunities and avoiding
undue concentrations of assisted persons in
areas containing a high proportion of low-
income persons.
