Summary
Amends the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974 to allow a metropolitan city or urban county to conduct activities under the community development block grant program in areas in which a majority of the residents are not persons of low and moderate income if: (1) such areas have a higher proportion of low- and moderate-income persons than 75 percent of all areas in the jurisdiction; and (2) restricting such activities to the few areas of such jurisdiction in which a majority of the residents are low- and moderate-income persons would be plainly inappropriate to address the needs of such persons in the jurisdiction generally. Allows States to use a specified amount of the community development block grant funds received for distribution in nonentitlement areas for administrative expenses of the rental rehabilitation grant program. Amends the United States Housing Act of 1937 to: (1) permit States to use rental rehabilitation grant funds for eligible activities in any areas which do not receive direct allocations of such funds; and (2) provide that low-income families who are displaced by activities under the rental rehabilitation grant program shall be eligible for assistance under the housing voucher program. Amends the Housing and Urban-Rural Recovery Act of 1983 to repeal a provision delaying implementation of regulations limiting the use of housing assistance to only U.S. citizens and other specified residents. Amends the Housing Act of 1949 to revise requirements concerning the availability of subsidized housing for very low-income families to require that: (1) at least 40 percent of the funds appropriated for rural housing loans be set aside for very low-income families; and (2) at least 30 percent of such funds allocated to each State be set aside for very low-income families. Amends the National Housing Act to authorize Federal Housing Administration mortgage insurance for condominiums converted from rental units if before April 20, 1984: (1) application was made to the Secretary for a commitment to insure a mortgage covering such a unit; (2) in the case of a direct endorsement, the mortgagee received the case number assigned by the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development for a project unit; or (3) application was made for approval of the project for a Veterans Administration guarantee, direct loan, or insurance. Amends the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974 to require local governments and local public agencies to retain income from outstanding urban renewal projects if it is used under the community development block grant program. Amends the Housing and Urban-Rural Recovery Act of 1983 to provide that certain funds appropriated for the special discretionary fund of the community development block grant program for FY 1984 shall be available for the neighborhood development demonstration.
