Title
Conduct a public hearing to receive citizen input regarding the proposed 2026-2027 Community Development Block Grant Program (CDBG) budget and Annual Action Plan.
Body
The United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) requires entitlement communities to prepare an Annual Action Plan in order to receive federal housing and community development funding. The Action Plan designates the City’s proposal on how to spend the grant funds in a given program year to meet the priorities and needs identified in the Consolidated Plan. The 2026-2027 Annual Action Plan states how the City plans to allocate the Community Development Block Grant Program (CDBG) funds for Fiscal Year 2027.
This is the first of two required public hearings to provide opportunity for resident input regarding the proposed 2026-2027 CDBG budget. A final public hearing will be conducted on Monday, July 20, 2026, during the City Council meeting to receive comments from interested parties regarding project allocations for the 2026-2027 CDBG program year.
