All comments received by Monday, March 29, 2021 (7 days from date of publication) will be considered by the Nassau County Office of Community Development prior to authorizing submission of a request for release of funds.
RELEASE OF FUNDS
The Nassau County Office of Community Development certifies to HUD that the County Executive, Laura Curran, in her official capacity, consents to accept the jurisdiction of the Federal Courts if an action is brought to enforce responsibilities in relation to the environmental review process and that these responsibilities have been satisfied. HUD’s approval of the certification satisfies its responsibilities under NEPA and related laws and authorities, and allows the Nassau County Office of Community Development to use Program funds.

Objections must be prepared and submitted in accordance with the required procedures (24 CFR Part 58) and shall be addressed to HUD, 26 Federal Plaza, Room 3504, New York, New York, 10278-0068.
