Community Development Block Grant Program

About the Program

Since 1985, the City has participated in the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program, which distributes federal funding from the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) each year.

HUD, using a formula that accounts for population, poverty and the age and condition of the housing stock, determines the amount of funding available for the City and local community-based organizations to use toward projects and services within its boundaries.
