Dear Mr. Torres:
The Department of Housing and Urban Development is pleased to announce that your application submitted in response to the Office of Lead Hazard Control and Healthy Homes (OLHCHH) Fiscal Year 2023 Lead Hazard Reduction Grant Program (LHR), Notice of Funding Opportunity has been selected for a grant award.
The OLHCHH's goal is to fully execute the grant by November 1, 2023. There will be a negotiation team that includes a negotiation Grants Officer (GO) and a Government Technical Representative (GTR) who will work with you to execute the grant. This process consists of holding a Negotiation meeting to review the award package documents, which are attached to the congratulatory email you received. These documents are required to be returned to the GO and GTR within two weeks of receipt for review to conduct the formal negotiation meeting.
The following Grantee's staff must attend the formal negotiation meeting: the Authorized Official or a representative, the Program Manager, who will handle the day-to-day project activities, and the designated Fiscal Officer. These staff members should be from the primary Grantee agency.
Also, subrecipients and pass-through entities are welcome to attend at the primary Grantee's discretion.
The negotiation team will contact the identified point of contact (POC) to schedule a negotiation meeting after the negotiation team has reviewed the requested documents. Typically, the POC is the Program Manager. If this position is vacant, we will contact the staff identified on the SF-424 application unless you provide a POC for negotiations.
Your organization's Grant Number is CALHD0494-23. Please include your grant number on all documents and correspondence (including all emails). Providing the grant number will facilitate and expedite the negotiation process.

Again, congratulations! We look forward to assisting you in implementing the program so that, together, we can protect children from residential lead-based paint, health, and safety hazards. If you have questions, please feel free to contact your negotiation Grant Officer (GO) or Grant Technical Representative (GTR).
Sincerely,
Jonnette H. Simmons, Director, Grant Services Divison
