1 - Site Approval
This tab is required for property approval for all NSP projects. Contracts may be initiated (contingent on
environmental clearance and appraisal) prior to submission, but reimbursement/ advancement should not
be requested (other than for general admin, project design, ER, appraisal, and inspection) for the site until
Grantee has issued approval. Most of the columns in this spreadsheet mimic the monthly report. Please
copy and paste these into the monthly report and save the time of entering them twice. For the purpose
of "obligating funds", please retain documentation (CONTRACTS, work write ups, estimates, design spec,
etc) that would back up the amount obligated to the project. This is not required to be submitted for
approval of the project but should be made available to Grantee upon request and will be required to
obligate funds.
2 - Rehab Approval
This tab is only required for rehab and redevelopment activities. Grantee requires that properties
requiring rehab have a Certified Housing inspection prior to beginning rehab. Local units of
government/agencies may use staff for initial inspection for rehab/redevelopment purposes if they are
certified as Housing Inspectors. All properties should have a third party Certified Housing inspection prior
to sale/transfer to a NSP beneficiary. If all work performed for rehab will be done to a certain standard or
address specific items not found in an inspection report, please develop and maintain a list of the local
rehab standards for NSP projects. Rehab standards may be submitted to Grantee in order to avoid case-by-
case approval of the rehab desired for each property. The only case-by-case approval needed would be if
the Work Plan exceeds what is discovered in the inspection and in the approved Rehab plan for the
grantee.
3 - Checklist
This tab is required for approval. Please scan and email any and all attachments where feasible.
Comprehensive documentation should be retained locally. For the purpose of site approval, please submit
summaries and only the pages with key information (appraised value, foreclosed status, summary of work
to be done, summary of inspection, etc). This is sufficient for Grantee. The full appraisals, title searches,
work write ups/estimates should be retained locally and made available to Grantee upon request. Should
the attachments not be available yet due to the project timeline, please obtain the documentation as
quickly as feasible and retain copies locally.
