COMMUNITY
DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT PROGRAM
The City of Holyoke expects to
receive $1,328,319 of CDBG Funds this year from the U.S. Department of HUD.
These funds may be used for a wide range of activities that improve housing,
the living environment and economic opportunities, primarily for low and
moderate-income persons. The allocation of these funds to specific
projects begins in December when proposals are solicited by the Office for
Community Development (OCD). The OCD, followed by the Citizens Advisory
Council, the Mayor and the City Council, review the proposals and make
funding recommendations. It remains the Mayor's responsibility to make
final award decisions and to submit the allocation plan to HUD. The
projects begin on July 1st.
The table below
lists the proposals that are being considered and will report the
recommendations of the entities mentioned above. Questions or comments
on the CDBG program or on the uses of program funds may be directed to the
Office for Community Development located in the City Hall Annex. Phone:
