Tim,
Here is a cursory response to your points. As mentioned in an earlier e-mail we'll be pulling together summary information from NRP as well as the City Departments involved within a week.

The NRP Group
http://www.nrpgroup.com/aboutnrp.html
Nora can confirm what can be provided in terms of what corporate information Community Development has regarding The NRP Group.
The NRP Group was founded in September, 1995 by Alan F. Scott, T. Richard Bailey and J. David Heller. They are involved in the development of single-family, multi-family and senior housing, and commercial and retail properties.
As Nora indicated in her email, NRP has had to compete for the funding they've obtained for the project. We can provide a summary breakdown of the public subsidy amounts and sources.
No-Compete Development?
So, to your third point of dealing with a no-compete project, all the public financing this project has/potentially will receive has been done competitively by federal HUD and potentially other regulations. Again, Nora can assist with elaboration of the amounts, sources and regulatory bodies.
