Public
Notice:
“El Paso Affordable Housing CUSO is a
member of the National Association of Latino Community
Asset Builders (NALCAB) whose members have partnered into a
national consortium of non-profit affordable housing
organizations that will submit an application on July 17,
2009 to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development
in response to the Neighborhood Stabilization Program Round
II (NSP II) Notice of Funding Availability released on May
4, 2009.
The
coalition NALCAB member participants have chosen Chicanos
Por La Causa, Inc. (CPLC) of Phoenix, AZ to act as the lead
applicant and fiscal agent for this grant request since it
is one of the largest non-profit community development
organizations in NALCAB. CPLC is among the
largest non-profit community development corporations in the
United States with assets over $97 million. All of the
organizations that make up this consortium serve
predominately Hispanic/Latino communities and provide
bilingual/ bicultural services.
The
purpose of this application is to stabilize neighborhoods
whose viability have been and continue to be damaged by the
economic effects of foreclosed upon, abandoned, blighted and
vacant properties. The CPLC/ NALCAB NSPII Consortium
anticipates that the activities proposed in this application
will substantively stabilize local real estate markets,
particularly in lower-income areas, and stimulate local
economies.
The CPLC/ NALCAB
NSPII Consortium hereby solicits public comment on the
