2022 PLHA Entitlement and Non-Entitlement Local Government Formula Allocation NOFA 5 I. Overview
A. Notice of Funding Availability
The California Department of Housing and Community Development (Department or HCD) is announcing the release of the 2022 Permanent Local Housing Allocation (PLHA) Program’s Formula Component Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) for approximately $335 million in calendar year 2021 funds in addition to the $131 million in calendar year 2019 and calendar year 2020 funds for Entitlement and Non-Entitlement Local governments. This NOFA is funded from moneys deposited in the Building Homes and Jobs Trust Fund (Fund) in calendar year 2021 and includes any remaining unawarded funds not requested for calendar years 2019 and 2020.
Funding for this NOFA is provided pursuant to Senate Bill 2 (SB 2) (Chapter 364, Statutes of 2017). SB 2 established the Fund and authorizes the Department to allocate 70 percent of moneys collected and deposited in the Fund, beginning in calendar year 2019, to Local governments for eligible housing and homelessness activities. The intent of the bill is to provide a permanent, on-going source of funding to Local governments for housing-related projects and programs that assist in addressing the unmet housing needs of their local communities.
In 2022, the Department will issue two separate NOFAs to award the PLHA funds:
• Formula Component NOFA for Entitlement and Non-Entitlement Local governments
• Non-Entitlement Local Government Competitive NOFA (anticipated in June 2022)
This NOFA outlines threshold and application requirements for Entitlement Local governments and Non-Entitlement Local governments as defined in Guidelines Section 101. Entitlement Local governments are metropolitan cities and urban counties that received a Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) for fiscal year 2017pursuant to the federal formula specified in 42 U.S. Code, Section 5306.
Please note that this NOFA has two separate threshold requirements sections:
• Local governments that received an award under the 2020 or 2021 Formula Component NOFA are subject to the threshold requirements outlined in Part II, Section F
• Local governments that have not previously applied for and received a PLHA award must meet the threshold requirements outlined in Part II, Section G *** PLEASE NOTE ***
Any 2019 calendar year funds remaining after the close of the NOFA application period will revert to the Housing Rehabilitation Loan Fund established to be used for the Multifamily Housing Program (Chapter 6.7 commencing with Section 50675) pursuant to Health and Safety Code Section 50470 (b)((2)(B)(ii)(VI) to be made available through a future Multifamily Housing Program Notice of Funding Availability.

2022 PLHA Entitlement and Non-Entitlement Local Government Formula Allocation NOFA 6 B. Timeline
C. Authorizing Legislation and Regulations
Senate Bill 2 (Chapter 364, Statutes of 2017) established the PLHA Program. The program operates under the requirements of Health and Safety Code (HSC), Part 2 of Division 31,Chapter 2.5 (commencing with Section 50470).
Section 50470 (b)(2)(B)(i) of the HSC authorizes the Department to allocate 70 percent of the moneys collected and deposited in the Fund, beginning in calendar year 2019, to Local governments.
Section 50470 (b)(2)(B)(i)(I) of the HSC requires the Department to allocate 90 percent of PLHA funds available to Local governments based on the federal CDBG formula specified in 42 U.S. Code, Section 5306, except that the portion allocated to Non-Entitlement Local governments is required to be distributed through a competitive grant program for Non-Entitlement Local governments.
Section 50470 (b)(2)(B)(i)(II) of the HSC requires the Department to allocate the remaining 10 percent of PLHA funds available to Local governments equitably to Non-Entitlement Local governments.
Section 50470 (d) authorizes the Department to adopt Guidelines to implement the PLHA program, not subject to the rulemaking provisions of the California Administrative Procedure Act.
This NOFA governs the administration of funding from the Fund (created by Section 50470, subdivision (a)(1) and appropriated by item 2240-103-3317 in theBudget Act of 2019) and made available under the PLHA program.

A. Eligible Applicants
An Applicant must be an Entitlement Local government, a Non-Entitlement Local government, or a Local or Regional Housing Trust Fund delegated by the Local government pursuant to Guidelines Section 300. Appendix A of the NOFA contains the list of eligible Applicants.
1. Delegation of Formula Allocation
An eligible Applicant may delegate their entire formula allocation to either another Local government or to a Local or Regional Housing Trust Fund. A Local government that delegates their formula allocation to another Local government or to a Housing Trust Fund must enter into a legally binding agreementwith the other Local government or Housing Trust Fund. The delegate must submit the PLHA application on behalf of the recipient of the PLHA Formula Allocation and wholly administer the entire formula component of PLHA funds on behalf of the delegator for the full term of the PLHA Plan, as set forth in Guidelines Section 300(c). Both the delegating Local government and the Applicant must meet the housing element compliance threshold requirement as outlined in Section II, Part F of this NOFA.
Upon delegating its entire formula allocation to another Local government or to a Local or Regional Housing Trust Fund, the Local government that delegated their allocation is no longer involved in the PLHA application or administration of the PLHA grant for the full term of the PLHA Plan, which extends through 2023. The delegated Local government or Trust Fund assumes full responsibility for compliance with statute and for meeting all the Department’s requirements, including any penalties for non-compliance.
A partial funding delegation is not permitted under the delegation authority.
However, a Local government can subgrant a portion of its allocation to another entity, as permittedby Guidelines Section 302(c)(3). When a Local government subgrants a portion of its allocation to another entity, the Local government remains fully accountable and responsible for compliance with statute and for meeting all of the Department’s requirements, including any penalties for noncompliance.
