Performance Report.
    OMB Approval Number: 2506-0117.
    Type of Request: Extension.
    Form Numbers: N/A.
    Description of the need for the information and proposed use: The 
Departments collection of this information is in compliance with 
statutory provisions of the Cranston Gonzalez National Affordable 
Housing Act of 1990 that requires participating jurisdictions to submit 
a Comprehensive Housing Affordability Strategy (Section 105(b)); the 
1974 Housing and Community Development Act, as amended, that requires 
states and localities to submit a Community Development Plan (Section 
104(b)(4) and Section 104(m)); and statutory provisions of these Acts 
that requires states and localities to submit applications and reports 
for these formula grant programs. The information is needed to provide

expenditure of CDBG grant funds. Obligations and expenditures of CDBG 
grant funds will be modified to be grant-specific, rather than 
cumulative.
    Respondents (describe): States and local governments participating 
in the Community Development Block Grant Program (CDBG), the Home 
investment Partnership Program (HOME), the Emergency Solutions Grants
