The Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008 appropriated Community Development Block Grant funds for emergency assistance for redevelopment of abandoned and foreclosed homes and residential properties under the Neighborhood Stabilization Program (NSP).

Maricopa County has been identified as a possible recipient of up to $9,974,267 in this program. The Department of Housing and Urban Development published details, rules and requirements for the NSP in the Federal Register on Monday, October 6.  Information on the NSP program regulations, funding allocations and other information can be found on HUD's website at www.hud.gov/nsp.

A Substantial Amendment to the FY2008 Annual Action Plan was submitted to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development on Monday, December 1, 2008 and is currently under review.  Please click here to review NSP documents.
