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.

Application Period

The application period for organizations to request CDBG funds usually runs from December to February each year. Online applications and application guidelines will be made available at that time. 

You are encouraged to contact the Patrice Clemons throughout the year for information regarding projects or services that you may be seeking funding for in the coming year.
