SEC. 413. ALLOCATION AND DISTRIBUTION OF ASSISTANCE. (a) In General.— The Secretary shall allocate assistance under this subtitle to metropolitan cities, urban counties, and States (for distribution to local governments in the States) in a manner that ensures that the percentage of the total amount available under this subtitle for any fiscal year that is allocated to any State, metropolitan city, or urban county is equal to the percentage of the total amount available for section 106 of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974 for such prior fiscal year that is allocated to such State, metropolitan city, or urban county. (b) Minimum Allocation Requirement.— If, under the allocation provisions applicable under this subtitle, any metropolitan city or urban county would receive a grant of less than 0.05 percent of the amounts appropriated to carry out this subtitle for any fiscal year, such amount shall instead be reallocated to the State, except that any city that is located in a State that does not have counties as local governments, that has a population greater than 40,000 but less than 50,000 as used in determining the fiscal year 1987 community development block grant program allocation, and that was allocated in excess of $1,000,000 in community development block grant funds in fiscal year 1987, shall receive directly the amount allocated to such city under subsection (a). (c) Distributions to Nonprofit Organizations.— Any local government receiving assistance under this subtitle may distribute all or a portion of such assistance to private nonprofit organizations providing assistance to homeless individuals. (d) Reallocation of Funds.— (1) The Secretary shall, not less than twice during each fiscal year, reallocate any assistance provided under this subtitle that is unused or returned or that becomes available under subsection (b). (2) If a city or county eligible for a grant under subsection (a) fails to obtain approval of its comprehensive plan during the 90-day period following the date funds authorized by this subtitle first become available for allocation during any fiscal year, the amount that the city or county would have received shall be available to the State in which the city or county is located if the State has obtained approval of its comprehensive plan. Any amounts that cannot be allocated to a State under the preceding sentence shall be reallocated to other States, counties, and cities that demonstrate extraordinary need or large numbers of homeless individuals, as determined by the Secretary. 101 STAT. 497 (3) If a State fails to obtain approval of its comprehensive plan during the 90-day period following the date funds authorized by this subtitle first become available for allocation during any fiscal year, the amount that the State would have received shall be reallocated to other States and to cities and counties that demonstrate extraordinary need or large numbers of homeless individuals, as determined by the Secretary. (e) Allocations to Territories.— In addition to the other allocations required in this section, the Secretary shall (for amounts appropriated after the date of enactment of this Act) allocate assistance under this subtitle to the Virgin Islands, Guam, American Samoa, the Northern Mariana Islands, the Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands, and any other territory or possession of the United States, in accordance with an allocation formula established by the Secretary.
