Plan Description - City of Tustin

Chapter 2 • Plan Description
complied with Section 586.20 of the Rules implementing the
Redevelopment Act.
An outreach workshop was held on April 27, 1995 for interested
representatives of state and local agencies and homeless providers. Federal
laws and rules related to the screening and application process were
presented and discussed. The LRA also provided a 30-day opportunity for
verbal and written comments to be provided by homeless providers
regarding the draft application requirements and review criteria prepared
for the effort and entitled "Application Information for Expressions of
Interest of Buildings and/or Property at MCAS Tustin" (only one comment
was received and responded to). Persons and organizations identified on
the HUD list of representatives of the homeless, State and local agencies
and others were invited to this workshop. Tours were provided upon
request to all representatives of the homeless, state and local government
agencies and other interested parties who wished to tour the facility.
Interested parties were given an opportunity to:
• Learn about the closure/realignment and disposal process;
• Tour the buildings and properties available;
• Learn about the LRA's process and schedule for receiving Notices of
Interest as guided by Section 586.20 of HUD's Interim Rule for the
Redevelopment Act; and
• Learn about any known land use constraints affecting the available
property and buildings.
The LRA published a notice inviting the submittal of Notices of Interest
from state and local governments, representatives of the homeless and
other interested parties by not later than October 31, 1995. The 90-day
notice identified how to obtain information regarding MCAS Tustin, and it
described how to obtain an application packet. Application packets were
mailed or otherwise provided to interested parties that described the form
and contents required by the LRA of the Notice of Interest. The
application packet also described the process and criteria to be used by the
LRA in considering application submittals. Submitted Notices of Interest
were required to include:
• A description of the proposed homeless assistance program,
including the purposes to which the property or facility will be put,
as well as an indication of how the proposal clearly meets an
identified need of the homeless and fills a gap in the community's
continuum of care;
