Background Information:
On October 22, 2020, the City received a corrected notice from the US Department of Housing and Urban Development stating that since issuing the original allocation announcement letters, HUD has discovered an error in their formula calculation for the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program, and the correction has resulted in a reduction of the City’s allocation by $110, to $722,794.
This change requires City Council consideration of a non-substantial amendment to the 2020 CDBG Entitlement Action Plan. No public notice is required.
