Applicant Priority <br />There are times when priority must be given to certain underserved groups or to <br />meet funding agency requirements. <br />These other Applicant priority consideration factors will take effect in the event <br />that Applicants simultaneously submit an Application and it is not discernible by <br />the individual(s) receiving the Application which Applicant entered the facility to <br />submit the Application first, or in the event that the Applicants enter the facility to <br />submit the Application at the same time and there is only one individual to <br />receive the Applications causing one person to have a later date and time stamp <br />on their Application. <br />In addition, if the HRS, in consultation with the PA and other applicable local <br />government departments (Housing, Building, Fire, Health Department or Code, <br />etc.) determines that one Applicant's housing unit poses a greater hazard to <br />health and safety than another's, the Applicant at greater risk of physical harm <br />may be given priority (i.e. roof replacement would take precedence over a <br />window repair). <br />H.

This information can be <br />effectively conveyed via a program and/or goal specific fact sheet or program <br />brochure and should be discussed during the initial Applicant workshop and as <br />required during any follow up contact. <br />
