This assurance shall obligate Contractor, or in the case of any transfer, the transferee, for the period during which the real property and structure(s) are used for a purpose for which the Federal financial assistance is extended or for another purpose involving the provision of similar services or benefits.
B. Fair Housing Act of 1968
The Fair Housing Act (42 U.S.C. §§ 3601-3620; P.L. 90-284) states that it is the policy of the United States to provide, within constitutional limitations, for fair housing throughout the United States and prohibits any person from discriminating in the sale or rental of housing, the financing of housing, or the provision of brokerage services, including in any way making unavailable or denying a dwelling to any person, because of race, color, religion, sex, national origin, handicap or familial status. Contractor shall administer all programs and

federal funding to provide language translation or interpreter services to its clients and potential clients who are limited in English proficiency.
A person with Limited English Proficiency (LEP) is a person who does not speak English as their primary language and who has a limited ability to read, write, speak or understand English. Affirmative steps must be taken to communicate with people who need services or information in a language other than English. A policy must be developed to serve applicants, participants, and/or persons eligible for housing assistance and support services.
Contractor must analyze the various kinds of contacts it has with the public, to assess language needs and decide what reasonable steps should be taken. In order to determine the level of access needed by LEP persons, the following four factors must be balanced:
1. the number or proportion of LEP persons eligible to be served or likely to be applying for program services;
2. the frequency with which LEP persons utilize these programs and services;
3. the nature and importance of the program, activity, or service provided; and
4. the benefits from providing LEP services, and the resources available and costs to the CDC for those services.
Balancing these four factors will ensure meaningful access by LEP persons to critical services while not imposing undue burdens on the Contractor. Contractor shall develop and implement a LEP policy consistent with the above guidelines and provide City with copies of its LEP Policy.
G. Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990

2. The costs would be allowable if the award were not suspended or expired normally at the end of the funding period in which the termination takes effect.
