(2) Homesteader selection. The program shall include equita

16、ble procedures for homesteader selection which: (i) Exclude prospective homesteaders who own other residential property; (ii) Take into account a prospective homesteaders capacity to make or cause to be made the repairs and im-provements required under the home-steader agreement, including the ca-pa

21、riteria which are consistent with this 590.7(b)(2) and which shall be specified in the applicants application pursuant to 590.11(a) and approved by HUD under 590.13.

22、 extent that they are not inconsistent with this section and with affirmative marketing objectives under 590.11(d)(5)(ii). Such preferences based on residential location may not be based upon the length of time the pro-spective homesteader has resided in the jurisdiction or the neighborhood. Also, p

23、ersons who are employed, or who have been notified that they have been hired, in the jurisdiction shall be ex-tended any preference available to cur-rent residents. (3) Conditional conveyance. The pro-gram shall provide for the conditional conveyance of federally-owned prop-erties to homesteaders wi

31、s of the LUHA to de-termine compliance with the agree-ment; and (v) To surrender possession of, and any interest in, the property upon ma-terial breach of the homesteader agree-ment (including default on any reha-bilitation financing secured by the property), as determined by the LUHA in accordance

32、with this part. (6) Monitoring and selecting successor homesteaders. The program shall pro-vide that the LUHA will monitor the homesteaders compliance with the homesteader agreement, will revoke the conditional conveyance and home-steader agreement upon any material breach by the homesteader, and, t

33、o the extent necessary and practicable, will select one or more successor home-steaders for the property. The LUHA shall make reasonable efforts to assure that any proposed successor home-steader assumes any section 312 loan on the property, subject to HUD ap-proval of the terms of the assumption. I

34、f the LUHA selects a successor home-steader, it shall require the successor homesteader to assume the original homesteaders remaining obligations under his/her homesteader agreement and conditional conveyance in compli-ance with this part. (7) Fee simple title. The program shall provide for the conv

35、eyance of fee sim-ple title to the property from the LUHA to the homesteader, or successor homesteader, without substantial con-sideration upon compliance with the terms of the homesteader agreement and conditional conveyance. (8) Homesteading infeasible; alternative use. If completion of homesteadi

36、ng proves, in the judgment of HUD, to be infeasible for any reason after a LUHA has accepted title to a federally-owned property, the LUHA shall not demol-ish, dispose of, rent or otherwise con-vert the property to its own use until HUD approves an alternative use. (c) Designation of LUHA(1) Respon-

37、sibilities. Under the requirements of this 590.7(c), the applicant shall des-ignate a LUHA, which shall have pri-mary responsibility for administering the local urban homesteading program for the applicant. Although the appli-cant may at any time amend its local urban homesteading program to des-ign

38、ate a new LUHA, subject to HUD ap-proval, neither the applicant nor the designated LUHA may delegate or con-tract out to another legal entity the function of accepting and conveying in its own name title to properties for homesteading purposes under this part. To the extent permitted by the appli-ca

39、nt, the LUHA may use third parties as contractors, consultants, or agents to assist if in carrying out other func-tions and responsibilities with respect to the local urban homesteading pro-gram, by entering into a written agree-ment between the LUHA and the third party. No such agreement shall be d

40、eemed to relieve the LUHA or the ap-plicant of responsibility for the thrid partys actions in connection with the local urban homesteading program. (2) Identity of LUHA. The LUHA must have legal authority to carry out a local urban homesteading program as described in this part, including the au-tho

41、rity to accept and convey title to properties under paragraph (b) of this 590.7. To the extent consistent there-with, the applicant State or unit of general local government may: (i) Act as LUHA in its own name, while identifying within its adminis-trative organization a lead department or agency to

42、 act as the primary con-tact point for HUD; (ii) Designate, and enter into a writ-ten agreement with, a legally separate public body or agency to act as LUHA in accordance with this part; or (iii) Designate, and enter into a writ-ten agreement with, a qualified com-munity organization (as defined in

43、 the Act) to act as LUHA in accordance with this part. 54 FR 23937, June 2, 1989, as amended at 56 FR 6808, Feb. 20, 1991; 61 FR 7062, Feb. 23, 1996 VerDate Nov2008 07:58 Apr 27, 2010 Jkt 220079 PO 00000 Frm 00304 Fmt 8010 Sfmt 8010 Y:SGML220079.XXX 220079WReier-Aviles on DSKGBLS3C1PROD with CFRProv
