2. Recipients in receipt of a court ordered shelter supplement, or a temporary shelter supplement pursuant to 18 NYCRR 370.10, at the time this paragraph is adopted and, who are otherwise eligible for public assistance will continue to receive that supplement, if higher than the shelter allowance set forth in paragraph (1) of this subdivision, for up to a two year period, provided that there is no break in assistance of more than one calendar month or that the family has not been sanctioned. After a two-year period from the date this paragraph is adopted or upon a break in receipt of a court ordered supplement or a supplement under 18 NYCRR 370.10 of more than one calendar month, applicants and recipients who were receiving a court ordered shelter supplement or a temporary shelter supplement pursuant to 18 NYCRR 370.10, must receive a shelter allowance pursuant to paragraph (1) of this subdivision, if otherwise eligible. The amount of the shelter supplement in excess of the shelter allowance maxima set forth in paragraph (1) of this subdivision is not part of the standard of need.

3. i. A social services district, with the approval of the Office of Temporary and Disability Assistance, may provide additional monthly shelter supplement to public assistance applicants and recipients who will reside in private housing, or who currently reside in private housing and are facing eviction. Social services districts choosing to provide such supplements must submit a plan to the Office of Temporary and Disability Assistance, attention: Employment and Income Support Programs Division of Temporary Assistance prior to providing any such supplements. Plans submitted to the Office must include: justification for providing supplement(s), the targeted population, the amount of the supplement(s) and any additional information as required by the Office. The supplement(s) must be a monthly amount that, when combined with the shelter allowance, does not exceed the rental obligation or home ownership shelter expenses of the applicant or
