On February 3, 2005, the Secretary of Commerce (the “Secretary”) and the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development jointly announced the President's Strengthening America's Communities Initiative (the “Initiative”). The Initiative proposes to transfer and consolidate 18 Federal economic and community development programs from the Departments of Agriculture, Commerce, Health and Human Services, Housing and Urban Development and Treasury within the Department, ultimately comprising a $3.71 billion unified grant program.
On February 9, 2005, the President's Domestic Policy Council requested the Secretary to form the Committee. The objectives and duties of the Committee will be to provide advice and recommendations to the Secretary, and to develop a comprehensive written report of policy parameters to assist in implementing the Initiative, including advising on its legislation, regulations and other guidance. The Committee's report will encompass all aspects of the envisioned Initiative, including policy findings and declarations, organizational structure, eligibility, program delivery, monitoring and performance measures. The Committee is expected to deliver its report to the Secretary by May 31, 2005. Thereafter, the Committee may be asked to advise the Secretary on additional issues relating to the Initiative.
The Committee is intended to have a balanced membership from diverse backgrounds and geographical regions, including the private sector, state, local and tribal government officials, community-based organizations, academia and the research community. Nominees should possess an extensive knowledge of, and background in, the fields of rural or urban economic or community development. Nominees should also possess recognized development policy expertise and excellent leadership, communication and organizational skills. The evaluation criteria for selecting members and the specific instructions for submitting nominations contained in the March 1, 2005 notice shall continue to apply. Additional information on the Initiative is available on the Department's Web site at http://www.commerce.gov/SACI/index.htm.
