The Executive Office of Housing and Livable Communities is proposing changes to the Massachusetts Community Development Block Grant program for federal fiscal 2024.
The initial step in an annual CDBG round is the issuance of proposed changes to the one-year plan. The changes include the period of performance for 2024 grants, limitations on the use, and timely expenditures.
The proposed changes memo has been posted on the EOHLC’s CDBG website, along with a notice containing the meeting link to the corresponding virtual public information session on Nov. 6 at 10:30 a.m.
The FFY2024 CDBG Proposed Changes Memo is also available here for download.
Interested parties are encouraged to submit comments in advance of the public session, or by Nov. 22. Comments may be sent by email to Community Development Manager Kathryn McNelis at kathryn.mcnelis@mass.gov.
While only non-entitlement communities are eligible to receive an award, the EOHLC is required to disseminate the proposed changes as broadly as possible.
