These notices shall satisfy two separate but related procedural requirements for activities to be undertaken by The Housing Authority of the City of Atlanta, Georgia.

REQUEST FOR RELEASE OF FUNDS

On or about October 7, 2026, the City of Atlanta will authorize The Housing Authority of the City of Atlanta, Georgia (“Atlanta Housing”) to submit a request to the HUD Atlanta Regional Office for the release of funds under the Housing Act of 1937, as amended, to dispose of 4.65 acres located at 1110 Hill Street, Atlanta, Georgia at fair market value to a developer.

The disposition of the land at 1110 Hill Street will allow for retail development, and amenities that will benefit the larger Chosewood Park Neighborhood and adjacent former Englewood Manor site.

Atlanta Housing will not provide any federal funds to this project. The land will be sold at fair market value.

The current site occupants will remove the aboveground storage tanks (AST) prior to the disposition of the property. Soil on site requires remediation, and the future owner should remediate the site to the appropriate regulatory standards. The current occupants are responsible for costs associated with the AST removal. The future owner is responsible for the remediation costs.

FINDING OF NO SIGNIFICANT IMPACT

The City of Atlanta has determined that the project will have no significant impact on the human environment if the conditions for Contamination and Toxic Substances and Explosive and Flammable Hazards are followed. Therefore, an Environmental Impact Statement under the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA) is not required. Additional project information is contained in the Environmental Review Record (ERR). The ERR will be made available to the public for review electronically. Please submit your request by email to gmenvironmentalreview@atlantaga.gov and to environmental@atlantahousing.org.

PUBLIC COMMENTS

Any individual, group, or agency may submit written comments on the ERR to the City of Atlanta, Department of Grants and Community Development, Office of Entitlement and Competitive Compliance by email at gmenvironmentalreview@atlantaga.gov. All comments received by October 6, 2026 will be considered by the City of Atlanta prior to authorizing submission of a request for release of funds. Comments should specify which Notice they are addressing.

ENVIRONMENTAL CERTIFICATION

The City of Atlanta certifies to HUD that Deborah B. Lonon in her capacity as Commissioner consents to accept the jurisdiction of the Federal Courts if an action is brought to enforce responsibilities in relation to the environmental review process and that these responsibilities have been satisfied. HUD’s approval of the certification satisfies its responsibilities under NEPA and related laws and authorities and allows Alanta Housing to use Program funds.

OBJECTIONS TO RELEASE OF FUNDS

HUD will accept objections to its release of funds and the City of Atlanta’s certification for a period of fifteen days following the anticipated submission date or its actual receipt of the request (whichever is later) only if they are on one of the following bases: (a) the certification was not executed by the Certifying Officer of the City of Atlanta; (b) the City of Atlanta has omitted a step or failed to make a decision or finding required by HUD regulations at 24 CFR part 58; (c) the grant recipient or other participants in the development process have committed funds, incurred costs or undertaken activities not authorized by 24 CFR Part 58 before approval of a release of funds by HUD; or (d) another Federal agency acting pursuant to 40 CFR Part 1504 has submitted a written finding that the project is unsatisfactory from the standpoint of environmental quality. Objections must be prepared and submitted in accordance with the required procedures (24 CFR Part 58, Sec. 58.76) and shall be addressed to Courtney Kyles at courtney.n.kyles@hud.gov or 77 Forsyth Street SW, Atlanta, GA 30303. Potential objectors should contact HUD to verify the actual last day of the objection period.
