Community Development Block Grant Program
The Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program supports activities to build stronger and more resilient communities. Activities are identified through an ongoing process addressing needs such as public service funding, owner-occupied housing rehabilitation, clearance of blight, microenterprise assistance, and public facility infrastructure projects. CDBG is funded by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). Activities are broadly outlined in a Five-Year Consolidated Plan, fiscally constrained in Annual Action Plans, and reviewed in the Consolidated Annual Performance Evaluation Report. The program is operated under the Community Development Policies and Procedures and the Florence Citizen Participation Plan.
