(3) The acquisition, construction or renovation of facilities located near the premises of one or more HA developments to accommodate the provision of supportive services;

(4) The provision of not more than 15 percent of the total cost of supportive services (which may be provided directly to eligible residents by the HA or by contract or lease through other appropriate agencies or providers), but only if the HA demonstrates that:

(i) The supportive services are appropriate to improve the access of eligible residents to employment and educational opportunities; and

Grantees will be expected to adhere to all assurances applicable to environmental concerns.
