CDBG Notice of Funding Availability 2025

We build partnerships with different groups to obtain and disburse funds to our local community partners. We work with local, state, and national levels to support our community. We also help local nonprofits with advice. Plus, we keep an eye on the grants we give to others in the city.

Please note that the Grants Department does not directly provide funds for Homeownership Assistance, Rental Assistance, or Home Repairs. 

The Consolidated Grants Program brings money from the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). There are three types of funding:

Each funding source has its own rules on how the money can be used.

How the City Gets and Uses the Money

The city gets this money every year based on certain things like how many people live there and their needs. But to get this money, the city has to make a detailed plan called the "One Year Action Plan."

HUD also needs a bigger plan called the "Consolidated Plan." This plan looks at housing data, checks homes in the city, and gets input from people living there.
