954.600—Performance reviews.

(a) General. HUD will review the performance of each grantee in carrying out its responsibilities under this part whenever determined necessary by HUD, but at least annually. In conducting performance reviews, HUD will rely primarily on information obtained from the grantee's records and reports, findings from on-site monitoring, audit reports, and information generated from fund requisition systems. Where applicable, HUD may also consider relevant information pertaining to a grantee's performance gained from other sources, including citizen comments, complaint determinations, and litigation. Reviews to determine compliance with specific requirements of this part will be conducted as necessary, with or without prior notice to the grantee. Comprehensive performance reviews under the standards in paragraph (b) of this section will be conducted after prior notice to the grantee.

(b) Standards for comprehensive performance review. A grantee's performance will be comprehensively reviewed periodically, as prescribed by HUD, to determine whether the grantee:

(1) Has committed the HOME funds in the HUD account as required and expended the funds as required; and

(2) Has met the requirements of the grant agreement and this part, particularly eligible activities and affordability.
