Whenever any qualified housing agency makes an application to the Commissioner of the Department of Community Affairs for assistance under this act, the agency shall include, as part of the application, a plan specifying the type and priorities of the supportive services it proposes to provide during the term of the contract. The plan, including fee schedules, shall be related to the needs and characteristics of the project residents eligible for assistance and other residents in need of supportive services.

Each application submitted by the housing agency for assistance under this act shall contain a statement affirming that the supportive services provided will not duplicate any services which are already accessible, affordable and sufficiently available to eligible project residents under programs administered by any federal, State or local agency or any public or private agency or organization and that fees established for services provided under this act are reasonable.
