13VAC10-90-20. Purpose and applicability.
These rules and regulations are adopted pursuant to § 36-55.30:3 of the Code of Virginia.
The following rules and regulations are applicable to all grants made by the authority to units of local government with funds allocated to the authority by HUD for the purpose of carrying out local rental rehabilitation programs for the benefit of lower income families and persons. Such grants are referred to herein as "rental rehabilitation grants."
Rental rehabilitation grants may be made to Grantees pursuant to these rules and regulations only if and to the extent that the authority has received from HUD grant funds available therefor.
These rules and regulations supplement and clarify rather than supercede federal program requirements. The authority and all local grantees are fully bound by the applicable requirements of 24 CFR Part 511, as well as governing federal and state laws in the administration and use of funds received from HUD under the federal Rental Rehabilitation Program.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Executive Director is authorized with respect to any rental rehabilitation grant to waive or modify any provisions herein where deemed appropriate by him for good cause, to the extent not inconsistent with the Act and any applicable federal regulations.
All reviews, analyses, evaluations, inspections, determinations and other actions by the authority pursuant to the provisions of these rules and regulations shall be made for the sole and exclusive benefit and protection of the authority, and shall not be construed to waive or modify any of the rights, benefits, privileges, duties, liabilities or responsibilities of the authority or the grantee under the agreements and documents executed in connection with a rental rehabilitation grant.
The rules and regulations set forth herein are intended to provide a general description of the authority's requirements and are not intended to include all actions involved or required in the administration of grants under the Virginia Rental Rehabilitation Program. These rules and regulations are subject to change at any time by the authority and may be supplemented by policies, rules and regulations adopted by the authority from time to time with respect to the Virginia Rental Rehabilitation Program.
