Community Development Block Grant (CDBG)
2018 Annual Action Plan: Proposed Use of Funds for Program Year 13
The Village of Hoffman Estates seeks citizen input for its 2018 CDBG Annual Action Plan. The 2018 Program Year begins on October 1, 2018 and ends on September 30, 2019. This will be the 4th Annual Action Plan within the Village’s 2015-2019 CDBG Consolidated Plan. The Annual Action Plan is a document that identifies the Village’s specific strategy to address affordable housing, infrastructure improvements, supportive services, and community development needs of low and moderate income residents. Development of the Annual Action Plan is required of the Village as a recipient of CDBG funds. The CDBG program is a federally funded program intended to develop a viable community, a suitable living environment, and expanded economic opportunities principally for low and moderate income residents of Hoffman Estates.
In addition to an estimated $35,000 in unused funds from prior years’ allocations, the Village of Hoffman Estates anticipates an allocation of approximately $243,193 in CDBG funds during the 2018 Program Year, which begins on October 1, 2018. The Action Plan will include the activities the Village proposes to complete with anticipated CDBG funds to benefit persons of low and moderate income and will meet Consolidated Plan objectives.
