All applications submitted by the stated due date will undergo a minimum threshold review. Applicants will be notified if they do not meet the minimum threshold review. If the deficiencies are curable, the applicant may be required to provide additional information. If the deficiency is not curable, the applicant is notified that their application will not be reviewed further. All applicants meeting threshold review will undergo an extensive panel review and the applications will be scored and ranked. The highest-ranking applications will be selected for funding. Upon final review of the applications, all scores and assessment material will be reviewed by HUD Management before final selection. Upon final selection, applicants will be notified of the award amount. Those awards will also be published in the federal register as required by regulations.

CDBG-PRICE pilot set-aside grantees are required to supplement their award grants with non-Federal amounts exceeding 50% of the grant. Other CDBG-PRICE awards do not require cost sharing, matching funds, or leveraging. However, HUD encourages applicants to leverage other Federal and non-Federal sources.
