BOS CoC Project Scoring Tool-Project Review & Ranking


CoC Project Scoring Tool Scoring Tool Results
  1. If there is a yellow box with an X in row #41, that means your project score is below the 70% threshold.  As a result, the project must submit a Decision Form to wiboscoc@gmail.com no later than 8/24/2023. This includes 3 options:  relinquish the grant funds, reallocate the grant funds, or request reconsideration.  Relinquish means that your agency will not seek to renew the project funds for 2024-2025.  Reallocate means that your agency is seeking to change the type of project currently an eligible renewal into something new (RRH or PSH) and will then need to complete a New Project Application. 
  2. If you select “Reconsideration Request,” there is a separate Reconsideration Request document that must be completed as well.   The Reconsideration Request is due no later than 8/24/2023 and should be emailed to wiboscoc@gmail.com.  This is a separate document from the “Decision Form.”

New Project Request for Proposals (RFP)- Permanent Housing Bonus

 Below, you will find the instructions, application, and Scoring rubric

8/28/2023
Clarification on new budget line item in red:
NOFO FY23, I.3.d(2) and II.B.4.a(4): Rural Cost Budget: Applications can request a new Rural Cost Budget line item for the following activities: a. Short-term emergency lodging to include housing in motels or shelters, either by providing direct funding or through vouchers; b. Repairs to housing units in where people experiencing homelessness will be housed, including housing units currently not fit for human habitation; c. Staff training to include professional development, skill development, and staff retention activities. Note: HUD has determined that this new eligible Rural cost category may be included in new project applications or added to eligible renewal projects through expansion. HUD will publish a list of CoCs located in rural areas.
  • The rural costs can only be used in rural areas. You are allowed to apply for rural costs even if you have a mix of rural or non-rural areas. However, the rural BLI funds can only pay for services in rural areas. So you can apply for an expansion grant to fund a rural BLI.  Just know those costs can only cover rural areas. If this policy changes, we will make sure to inform applicants.
