MATCH REPORT <br />Recipients of HOME funds are required to match each HOME dollar spent during the report period. <br />Typically, a HOME Participating Jurisdiction (PJ) is required to match HOME funds at a ratio of one <br />non - federal dollar for every four HOME dollars spent (i.e. 25 %). The City has been notified by HUD <br />that for the 2011 -2012 report period, the HOME match requirement has been reduced to 0% <br />because the City's "family poverty rate" was 125% or more of the average national poverty rate, <br />and the City's per capita income was less than 75% of the national average. Even though the City <br />does not have a match obligation, a record of eligible HOME match has been maintained —the City <br />13 Total includes 1 household assisted with ADDI funding to purchase a home. <br />08/23/2012 <br />42 <br />19C -50 <br />
