Estimated total development cost of all units_____

The above-named Local Housing Authority requests the Federal Public Housing Authority to allot funds, when funds become available, for the financial assistance of low-rent housing projects as summarized above and as described in the pages attached hereto. It is understood that such allotment of funds will be tentative only, pending the submission and approval of Applications for Financial Aid and the execution of Contracts for Financial Aid with the FPHA.

In submitting this request, the Local Authority states its considered opinion that the proposed projects are consistent with a sound public housing program for the locality, and that none of the families to be served can afford to pay enough to cause private enterprise to build an adequate supply of decent, safe, and sanitary dwellings for their use.

The Local Authority further states its intent to proceed with the projects as soon as funds are allotted to it by the FPHA and permanent building materials become available and, in any event, to enter into Contracts for Financial Aid covering all of the proposed projects within three years thereafter; to develop the projects in conformance with the United States Housing Act of 1937 (as

amended); and to administer the projects so that the amount of annual contributions will be the minimum required to achieve rentals consistent with a sound public housing program.
