GHHP Project Director, Emily Roush-Elliott
On or about February 29th, 2024 the City of Greenwood will submit a request to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) for the release of the Healthy Homes Production Grant Program (HHP). The Healthy Homes Production Program is authorized under Section 501 and Section 502 of the Housing and Urban Development Act of 1970 (12 U.S.C. §§ 1701z-1 and 1701z-2), and funding is provided by the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2023 (Public Law 117-328, approved December 29, 2022). This program is administered under HUD’s Office of Lead Hazard Control and Healthy Homes (OLHCHH) for the following multi-year program/project: Greenwood Healthy Homes Production Grant (GHHP) for the following purpose:
GHHP seeks to improve the health outcomes of low-income (80% AMI and below) owner-occupant households in three census tracts (9507, 9508, and 9509) within the City limits of Greenwood, MS. Utilizing Healthy Housing Principles, the project team will assess a targeted 140 households, develop scopes for health hazard remediation, and complete home repairs at approximately 120 single-family homes. All homes where interventions takes place will be single-family residences. Typical activities that may take place at individual homes will include repairing leaking roofs, replacing broken windows and/or doors, remediating harmful substances such as lead-based paint or mold, removing trip hazards, repairing broken plumbing fixtures, repairing dangerous electrical, and improving unhealthy heating and air systems.
The City of Greenwood is requesting the release of $1,996,898.00 in HUD funds (matching fundings will be leveraged to result in a total project cost of $2,392,253.00)
The proposed hazard control activities to be funded under this/these program(s) is/are categorically excluded from the National Environmental Policy Act requirements, but subject to compliance with some of the environmental laws and authorities listed at § 58.5 of 24 CFR Part 58. In accordance with §58.15, a tiered review process has been structured, whereby some environmental laws and authorities have been reviewed and studied for the intended target area(s) listed above. Other applicable environmental laws and authorities will be complied with when individual projects are ripe for review. Specifically, the target area has/have been studied and compliance with the following laws and authorities has been achieved in this Tier 1 review: (Airport Hazards, Coastal Barriers Resources, Air Quality, Coastal Zone Management, Endangered Species Act, Explosive and Flammable Hazards, Farmlands Protection, Sole Source Aquifers, Wetlands Protection, Wild and Scenic Rivers Act, and Environmental Justice). Site-specific environmental reviews will include compliance with the following environmental laws and authorities for proposed projects funded under the program(s) listed above: (i.e., Flood Insurance, Floodplain Mitigation, Historic Preservation, Contamination and Toxic Substances, and Noise Abatement and Control). Should individual aggregate projects exceed the threshold for categorical exclusion detailed at §58.35(a), an Environmental Assessment will be completed and a separate Finding of No Significant Impact and Request for Release of Funds published. Copies of the compliance documentation worksheets are available at the address below.
An Environmental Review Record (ERR) that documents the environmental determinations for this project, and more fully describes the tiered review process cited above, is on file at Greenwood City Hall, Office of the Mayor, 101 W.
