Subchapter B. BLOCK GRANTS

(Editor's note: The text of the following sections proposed for
repeal will not be published. The sections may be examined in the offices
of the Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs or in the Texas Register
office, Room 245, James Earl Rudder Building, 1019 Brazos Street, Austin.)
The Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs
(the Department) proposes the repeal of §§1.11 - 1.13, concerning
the Block Grant Guidelines. The sections are proposed to be repealed in order
to update and discard duplicative and unnecessary rules in accordance with
the Texas Government Code §2001.039. The only block grant remaining at
the Department is the Community Services Block Grant (CSBG). Federal Law at
42 U.S.C. §9901 et seq. governs the nonrenewal of contracts and reductions
in funding.
Ms. Ruth Cedillo, Acting Executive Director, has determined that for the
first five-year period the repeal is in effect there will be no fiscal implications
for state or local government as a result of enforcing or administering the
repeal. The proposed repeal will not have an impact on any local economy.
Ms. Cedillo has also determined that for the first five-year period the
repeal is in effect the public benefit anticipated as a result of enforcing
the repeal will be to permit the adoption of new rules for the Department.
There will be no effect on persons, small businesses or micro-businesses.
There is no anticipated economic cost to persons, small businesses or micro-businesses
who are required to comply with the repeal as proposed.
