Purpose
PURPOSE/BACKGROUND:
The City of Hampton (the "City") has completed a draft of its FY 2018 Annual Action Plan (the "Plan") for Housing and Community Development which covers the FY 2017 - 2018 timeframe and provides a review of the City’s proposed activities under the 2017-2018 Community Development Block Grant ("CDBG") and HOME Investment Partnership Programs.
Discussion:
The U. S. Department of Housing and Urban Development ("HUD") annually awards CDBG and HOME funds to the City to develop viable urban communities by providing improved housing, suitable living environments and economic opportunities for those in the low-to-moderate household income bracket. The City uses these funds to complement other resources for implementing the Hampton Neighborhood Initiative. The Plan includes utilization of funds received from HUD that will impact 30 homes.
Public hearings will be held on April 26, 2017 and May 3, 2017. The first public hearing is to receive public comments on the Plan and the second public hearing is to seek Council's approval to adopt the Plan. The Plan is available for public examination in the Housing and Neighborhood Services Division of the Community Development Department located at 22 Lincoln Street, 5th floor, Hampton, Virginia 23669 and online at www.hampton.gov/neighborhoods.
