The program includes money from transportation, state, federal and other local sources. The figures set the scale of planned capital work for the fiscal year, but they do not mean that all listed projects have been completed or are under construction.

Funding sources listed by the city

The city’s broader funding summary lists $13.757 million in General Fund capital-improvement funding sources. That figure is presented as a funding-source line in the summary and should not be treated as a single unrestricted cash balance or added automatically to the $10.482 million program total.

For FY 2026-27, the summary identifies $1 million from Measure R, $1.475 million from Measure M and $1 million from the Road Repair and Accountability Act, also identified as RMRA/SB1. It also lists $1.79 million from Metro and $2.5 million from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, or HUD.

These funding streams carry different purposes and restrictions. The funding summary does not assign every dollar to a named project in the information presented, so the listed amounts are best understood as the city’s planned funding framework rather than a description of one project or one unrestricted account.

Separate CDBG action

A separate La Mirada City Council agenda identifies proposed fiscal 2026-27 Community Development Block Grant projects for council approval. The agenda also recommends authorizing the city manager to execute contracts and amendments with the Los Angeles County Development Authority.

That CDBG item is a proposed action involving specific grant-funded projects and contract authority. It is separate from simply listing the overall capital-program funding sources.

What the program means for La Mirada

The capital program provides the city’s planned infrastructure-spending framework for the fiscal year. Depending on the individual project and its funding restrictions, residents and businesses may see work involving streets, transportation, public facilities or other city capital assets.

Project schedules and funding conditions will determine when individual work moves forward. The $10.482 million figure is planned funding, not a final accounting of expenditures. Individual projects may also proceed on different timelines, and the city’s final spending total could change through amendments.

The draft was completed by the Mayor’s Office of Community Development. It covers four federal grant programs: Community Development Block Grant, HOME Investment Partnerships, Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS and Emergency Solutions Grant.

Together, those programs guide the city-parish’s proposed use of federal funds for housing, homelessness, community development and related public-health needs. The close of the comment period marks the end of the public input window, but it is not the same as final approval or a completed spending decision.

What happens next

The public notice does not disclose final funding allocations by program or project, and it does not provide a date for adoption of the final plan. The city-parish’s Agenda Center lists public meetings and documents, including Metropolitan Council activity relevant to subsequent local-government action. Future city-parish documents will show how funds are allocated across projects and programs.

The draft Program Year 2026 Action Plan covers four federal funding programs: Community Development Block Grants, HOME funds, Emergency Solutions Grants and Housing Opportunities for Persons With AIDS. The estimated combined funding listed in the plan is $7,486,659.46.

The Baton Rouge-East Baton Rouge Office of Community Development accepted public comments during a 30-day period that ran from July 9 through Aug. 8, 2026. The plan was available online and for public examination at Carver Library and Scotlandville Library in Baton Rouge.

How the proposed funding is divided

The largest proposed allocation is $3,346,995 in Community Development Block Grant funding, or CDBG. The program is intended to support activities benefiting low- and moderate-income individuals and households.

The draft lists another $1,450,716.46 in HOME funding. HOME is a federal program used for housing-related assistance, including activities that serve eligible low- and moderate-income households.

The proposal also includes $291,178 in Emergency Solutions Grant funding, known as ESG. That funding is connected to homelessness response and emergency shelter services.

The remaining $2,397,770 is listed under the Housing Opportunities for Persons With AIDS program, or HOPWA. The program provides housing-related assistance and services for eligible people living with HIV or AIDS.

Together, the four estimates create the proposed funding framework for the 2026-27 program year. The money would be directed toward housing, homelessness response, emergency shelter, AIDS-related housing assistance and other services for eligible residents in Baton Rouge and East Baton Rouge Parish.

What residents were asked to review

The public-comment process gave residents an opportunity to review the draft plan and raise questions or concerns before the federal review process. Comments could be submitted by email to OCD@brla.gov or by mail to the Office of Community Development at 222 St. Louis Street, seventh floor, Baton Rouge.

The notice identifies broad program categories and estimated amounts, but it does not identify specific projects or neighborhoods that would receive funding under the proposal. That means the document sets out the proposed funding structure without assigning the listed dollars to individual locations in the public notice.

What happens next

The proposed figures are estimates rather than final awards. The plan remains subject to the public review required by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development before final program implementation.

The Office of Community Development’s notice does not state the final allocations after the comment period or provide a formal adoption date. Until the review is completed, the listed amounts describe the estimated federal resources proposed for the program year, not money formally awarded to individual projects or service providers.

The plan matters locally because its eventual allocations will shape how millions of dollars are used for housing assistance, homelessness services, shelter and related support. Those decisions will affect the resources available to low- and moderate-income residents and other eligible people who rely on the programs.

The programs include the Community Development Block Grant, HOME Investment Partnerships and Emergency Solutions Grant. The participation covers fiscal years 2027, 2028 and 2029, with the stated program period running from July 1, 2026, through June 30, 2030.

What the commitment does

The resolution creates a framework through which Lyndhurst can pursue funding for eligible projects during the multi-year period. Potential program uses identified in the approved materials include housing rehabilitation, quality-of-life improvements, infrastructure-related work, senior and youth services, homelessness prevention and other public services.

Bergen County’s Community Development Block Grant program says CDBG funds can support municipal, regional and countywide quality-of-life improvements. The county lists housing, infrastructure-related improvements, senior and youth services, homelessness prevention and economic-development services among eligible activities.

For Lyndhurst residents, homeowners, renters, local businesses and service providers, the immediate effect is continued eligibility to seek support through the county’s program structure. The resolution does not itself identify a Lyndhurst road project, housing rehabilitation project, homeless-services initiative or other specific use.

No award or dollar amount yet

Lyndhurst’s action is a participation commitment, not an announcement of awarded money. The available materials do not identify a specific project, award amount or construction schedule. Participation preserves eligibility, but it does not guarantee that the township will receive a future grant.

That distinction matters because future funding would still depend on project applications and the applicable county and federal program processes. The resolution establishes the township’s continued participation; it does not approve a particular application or commit a stated amount of public money.

Next deadline

The resolution had to be forwarded to Bergen County by July 20, 2026. The participation period begins July 1, 2026, and ends June 30, 2030, while the covered fiscal years are listed as 2027 through 2029.

As of the approved source materials, no separate Lyndhurst project or funding award had been identified. The next known step is the county’s receipt and processing of the township’s continued-participation resolution.

The proposal covers anticipated HOME, Community Development Block Grant and HOPWA resources for Warren. It also lists a proposed housing-development activity identified as H26-01 CHDO Housing Development.

For renters, homeowners, housing organizations and service providers, the publication begins a public review process rather than announcing final awards. The plan sets a proposed framework for housing, neighborhood, community-development and housing-related public-health spending in the city.

What Warren’s plan identifies

The proposed action plan concerns federal programs administered for Warren. Its inclusion of anticipated HOME revenues indicates that the city is planning around resources it expects to receive, while the H26-01 listing identifies a proposed CHDO housing-development activity within that framework.

The available notice does not establish that housing units have been built. It also does not establish that an individual applicant has received funding. Those outcomes should not be inferred from the activity’s appearance in a proposed plan.

The proposal could be relevant to local housing organizations and service providers tracking potential resources for housing and community-development work. It also gives residents a way to examine the city’s stated priorities before the document moves through the next stage of review.

The plan is not a final spending decision

Warren’s April 7 publication is a proposal, not a final funding award or completed spending plan. The notice does not, by itself, authorize final awards or establish how much money will ultimately be available for each program or activity.

The approved record does not show a complete dollar-by-dollar allocation table. It also does not provide a final adoption date. As a result, the anticipated resources and H26-01 activity should be understood as proposed elements, not confirmed final allocations.

That distinction matters for taxpayers, residents and organizations deciding what assistance or development opportunities may eventually be available. The plan identifies the city’s proposed direction, but the available material does not yet show the final amounts or the final list of funded activities.

Next step for residents and organizations

Residents, housing organizations and service providers can review the published notice and submit comments before the plan is finalized. The city’s council and public-notice process provides the next procedural step for adoption or revision.

The source packet does not identify a specific public-comment deadline. It also does not state a final adoption date, so Warren residents and organizations following the plan will need to watch the city’s notices and council process for further action.

The City of Warren Planning Department maintains the city’s planning and development framework. For now, the 2026-2027 action plan remains a proposed framework for anticipated HOME, CDBG and HOPWA resources, including the proposed H26-01 CHDO housing-development activity.

The city’s Annual Action Plan notice identifies $849,075 in Community Development Block Grant funding and $463,363.89 in HOME funding for the program year running from July 1, 2026, through June 30, 2027. Those are stated program allocations. They should not be read as money already spent or as proof that particular projects have been awarded, started or completed.

What the city says is available

The city’s notice describes CDBG as supporting community-development needs and HOME as supporting affordable-housing partnerships and assistance. The notice also set a public-comment deadline of July 27, 2026, at 4:30 p.m. That deadline had passed by August 3, when this article was prepared.

The allocation totals are only the starting point for public accountability. Residents, landlords, homeowners, nonprofits and taxpayers will need to see how the city converts the annual plan into named activities, eligible beneficiaries, deadlines and measurable results.

What City Council authorized

At its June 17 meeting, the New Brunswick City Council approved Resolution R-062658, awarding a contract to Triad Advisory Services, Inc., doing business as Triad Associates, to serve as the administrative consultant for the city’s CDBG, CDBG-CV and HOME programs.

The contract covers a 12-month period beginning July 1, 2026, and ending June 30, 2027. The city may extend it for another 12 months if it chooses. The contract has a not-to-exceed amount of $5,000.

That council action establishes the consultant arrangement for administering the programs. It does not, by itself, establish that all planned projects have started, that construction is underway, that homeowner assistance is accepting applications, or that the listed grant funds have been spent.

What CDBG can support

New Jersey’s Department of Community Affairs says the Small Cities CDBG program can support economic development, housing rehabilitation, community revitalization and public facilities when activities benefit low- and moderate-income residents, prevent or eliminate slum and blight, or address certain local needs for which no other funding is available. The state describes the award period as July 1 through June 30.

That statewide framework explains the range of possible CDBG uses, but it does not identify which activities New Brunswick will carry out during this program year. Specific local outcomes require a current city award list, project schedule, contract or other implementation record. The supplied city notice describes HOME’s purpose more generally as affordable-housing partnerships and assistance; it does not, on its own, confirm a current application opening or a specific funded development.

What has not yet been established

The records reviewed for this article establish the program period, the city’s stated CDBG and HOME allocation figures, the public-comment deadline and the consultant approval. They do not establish a final list of funded projects, final spending amounts, construction schedules, application windows or completed neighborhood improvements.

Residents should not assume that an assistance program is currently accepting applications unless New Brunswick or an identified implementing partner publishes current eligibility and application instructions.

What residents should watch for next

The most important follow-up records will be the final project schedule or award list; implementing agreements; eligibility rules; application instructions; partner information; and later expenditure, performance or closeout reports.

Those records will answer the practical accountability questions: Where is the money going? Who qualifies? When will work begin? What results does the city expect by June 30, 2027?

The proposed plan covers October 1, 2026, through September 30, 2027. The city’s official Annual Action Plan identifies August 11, 2026, as the public meeting when the plan is to be presented for commission approval and adoption. If approved, the city says it must submit the plan to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development by August 15.

The plan remains proposed as of August 3. Commission action, HUD requirements or later administrative changes could alter the final spending plan.

How Boynton Beach proposes to divide the money

The largest proposed allocation is $247,440 for a limited housing rehabilitation program. The plan also proposes $100,000 for microenterprise economic development, bringing the combined housing and economic-development category to $347,440.

Other proposed allocations are:

• $106,597 for program administration;
• $78,950 for public services;
• $247,440 for limited housing rehabilitation; and
• $100,000 for microenterprise economic development.

The city’s plan lists four public-service activities totaling $78,950:

• $28,000 for the Boynton Beach Economic Development Division;
• $12,950 for the Boynton Beach Library;
• $28,000 for the Boynton Beach Police Department; and
• $10,000 for the Legal Aid Society of Palm Beach County, Inc.

What the proposal could mean locally

If approved and accepted by HUD, the plan would set the intended local use of federal funds for housing rehabilitation, public services, microenterprise support and administration during the 2026-27 program year.

That makes the proposal relevant to eligible low- and moderate-income residents, potential housing-rehabilitation applicants, service providers and microbusinesses. It does not guarantee that any particular resident, business or organization will receive assistance. Eligibility, applications, participation rules and the timing of services would depend on final city action, HUD requirements and later program guidance.

HUD says CDBG funds are intended principally to benefit low- and moderate-income people and may support activities including residential rehabilitation, public services and economic development. HUD also says local governments administer the program and determine which local projects receive funding; assistance is not provided directly by HUD to individuals or businesses.

August 11 meeting and next steps

The official Annual Action Plan identifies an August 11, 2026, City Commission public meeting for presentation and approval of the plan. Boynton Beach’s online calendar currently lists a Boynton Beach Community Redevelopment Agency Board monthly meeting at 6 p.m. in Commission Chambers at City Hall on that date, so residents should check the city’s final agenda and meeting notice for the confirmed designation and agenda placement.

The city’s plan says the 30-day public-comment period ran from June 23 through July 24, 2026, and that no public comments were received during the review period. The next stated milestones are commission consideration on August 11 and the city’s August 15 HUD submission deadline.

Residents and organizations should monitor the city’s CDBG page and Agenda Center for the final action plan, any commission amendments, program rules and application or participation instructions. The proposed figures are not a promise of immediate assistance or individual awards.

The public hearing is scheduled for 6:30 p.m. Monday, Aug. 3, 2026, in the City Council Chambers on the second floor of City Hall, 1522 Texas Parkway. The city’s notice says the hearing is intended to receive citizen input on developing the PY2026 CDBG funding allocation before submission of an Annual Action Plan to HUD.

What the hearing covers

The hearing is part of Missouri City’s process for developing its PY2026 CDBG allocation and Annual Action Plan. The hearing itself does not approve final funding amounts or guarantee that any particular project or service will receive money.

Residents should review the city’s official notice for the latest instructions on attending, accessibility and submitting comments.

How the CDBG process works

Missouri City’s Community Development Advisory Committee provides direction to the distribution of CDBG funds. The city says the committee includes council members from Districts A and B, another council member selected annually, residents from target areas in Districts A and B, and two residents serving at large.

For the 2026 cycle, city staff and the advisory committee evaluate applications before recommendations are made to the City Council. The city’s application materials say the committee is authorized to approve funding recommendations as part of the citizen-input process. Any final allocation and approved activities remain subject to subsequent official city action.

Potential activity areas

City application materials identify possible CDBG activities including public services, housing, infrastructure, public facilities and public improvements. Other listed eligible activities include acquisition of real property for a public purpose, demolition or clearance, historic preservation and certain economic-development work.

The city’s PY2026 public-services materials identify priority needs including education for youth and adults, health and welfare services for children, senior and adult services, services for people with disabilities and homeless services. Those priorities help guide application review, but they do not mean every category or proposed activity will be funded.

Activities must meet HUD eligibility requirements and generally benefit low- to moderate-income households or areas, residents within Missouri City’s CDBG target areas or other eligible populations identified in program rules. The city says CDBG-funded programs are also planned through its Consolidated Plan and Annual Action Plan process.

What residents should do

Residents who want to comment can attend the Aug. 3 hearing at City Hall or follow the participation and submission directions in the city’s official public notice before the meeting.

What happens next

Monday’s hearing is a proposal and public-comment step, not the final allocation decision. After public input and the city’s application review, later official action will determine which activities and funding amounts move forward in the Annual Action Plan submitted to HUD.

The figure appears in Appendix 2.2, AP-90, of the plan prepared by the Nebraska Department of Economic Development. The table identifies the amount as an estimate based on the December 31 reporting-period status. It should not be treated as a confirmed August 2026 bank balance or as money newly awarded to the city.

Not a new unrestricted grant

The listing concerns CDBG program income or a local revolving-fund account, not a newly awarded unrestricted grant, tax revenue or general-purpose city money. The state plan says local governments may retain program income or establish local revolving-fund accounts for eligible CDBG activities.

Newman Grove is the municipality listed in the state plan and is located in Madison County. Local planning documents identify streets, sidewalks, water and sanitary lines, housing and commercial conditions among the city’s infrastructure and community-development concerns. The records reviewed for this report do not show that Newman Grove has approved a 2026 project, authorized spending, opened an application process or established a construction schedule tied to the $82,137 estimate.

Possible uses include infrastructure and housing

The state plan identifies eligible categories that may be supported with locally retained CDBG funds, including water and sewer improvements, street improvements, sidewalks, direct economic-development assistance to for-profit businesses, owner-occupied housing rehabilitation, lead-based-paint testing and mitigation, housing-rehabilitation management and general administration.

Those are eligible possibilities under the program, not announced Newman Grove projects. Any proposed use would have to comply with applicable CDBG rules, a Nebraska DED-approved local reuse plan and required state oversight.

Projects must meet CDBG objectives

Nebraska DED guidance says CDBG projects must meet a national objective. For locally retained program income and revolving funds listed in the state plan, the identified objectives include benefiting low- and moderate-income people through area benefit, limited clientele, housing or job creation and retention.

That means an infrastructure project may need to serve a qualifying low- and moderate-income area or otherwise document eligible beneficiaries. Housing work must benefit qualifying residents, while economic-development assistance must meet the program’s requirements for creating or retaining jobs for low- and moderate-income people.

The state plan also requires local governments to operate under an approved reuse plan and maintain applicable records, reporting and compliance procedures. The funds remain federal program income even when retained locally and cannot be spent as ordinary city revenue.

Inactive accounts may have to be returned

Nebraska DED says program income cannot be held indefinitely without qualifying activity. Funds held for 12 months or more without an accomplishment or beneficiaries may be classified as an idle account. DED evaluates local program-income accounts semiannually, and an account deemed idle may be required to return its balance and future funds to the department.

The plan’s local program-income table is separate from earlier CDBG awards in Newman Grove. In 2024, DED announced a $430,000 public-works award for street, storm-drainage and sidewalk improvements and a separate $43,000 planning award for a community development plan. Those prior awards should not be combined with the current $82,137 program-income estimate.

Newman Grove’s strategic plan, adopted in July 2024, identified the city’s street network and public swimming pool as the community’s two most important facility priorities and included broader goals involving infrastructure, housing and local businesses. The current state records do not establish that the estimated program income will be directed to those needs or to any other specific project.

The Annual Action Plan is the City’s formal blueprint for how Bryan intends to apply its CDBG and HOME allocations during the coming program year. HUD’s receipt of the plan is the federal process milestone that comes next.

What City Council approved on July 14

In meeting documents summarized as “Behind the Gavel,” the City reports Council adopted a resolution approving the 2026 Annual Action Plan and authorized the City Manager to submit the plan to HUD.

The HUD submission deadline residents should track

In the local wrap-up of the July 14 meeting, the submission timing is spelled out: the City’s 2026 Annual Action Plan is due to HUD no later than August 16, 2026.

How much Bryan allocated in the 2026 plan

For the 2026 Annual Action Plan year, the allocations discussed locally include:

• CDBG: $879,263
• HOME: $365,951.30

Who the funding is intended to help

The plan is aimed at programs that primarily benefit low- to moderate-income households and special needs populations, with an emphasis on housing stability and community needs.

Program categories included in the 2026 plan

As described in the local wrap-up, the 2026 Annual Action Plan includes these grant-funded program categories and set-aside components:

• Major Rehabilitation/Reconstruction (CDBG/HOME)
• Minor Repair (CDBG)
• Voluntary Demolition (CDBG)
• Down Payment Assistance (HOME)
• CHDO set-aside (Community Housing Development Organizations)
• Public Service Agencies set-aside (CDBG)
• Economic Development (CDBG) for low- to moderate-income small businesses/microenterprises
• Administration caps (CDBG/HOME)

Draft public comment is closed—what to watch next

Before Council’s adoption, the City accepted public comments on the draft 2026 Annual Action Plan through Monday, July 13, 2026.

With the local adoption step complete, residents’ next practical watch item is what happens after submission to HUD—when HUD process updates and follow-on local program guidance become available for the CDBG/HOME categories included in the plan.

What’s on the HUD-related agenda for July 27

On July 27, City Council will include two HUD-related items:

• Public hearing and consideration of a resolution to authorize a Substantial Amendment to the city’s 2025–2029 Consolidated Plan and 2025–2026 Action Plan for CDBG.
• Public hearing and consideration of a resolution to adopt the 2026–2027 Action Plan, including the summary of planned CDBG and HOME Investment Partnerships Program activities and proposed use of funds for program year 2026–2027.

These are hearing/consideration items. They aren’t final until Council votes during the meeting.

The meeting starts at 7:00 PM in the Senator Florence Shapiro Council Chambers at the Plano Municipal Center, 1520 K Ave, Plano, TX 75074.

How to comment in writing (deadline: 5:00 p.m.)

If you want your comments delivered to City Council as part of the HUD process leading into the hearings, City materials direct residents to contact:

Send comments to: Sandra Ottinger, Housing and Community Services Manager
Address: 777 E. 15th Street, Plano, TX 75074
Phone: (972) 208-8150
Email: sottinger@plano.gov

Deadline: Comments received by 5:00 p.m. Monday, July 27, 2026 will be provided to City Council.

How to speak during the public hearing

Plano’s meeting procedures require online speaker registration—onsite registration isn’t available.

• Online registration opens at 5:00 p.m. on the Tuesday prior to the meeting.
• Online registration closes at 4:00 p.m. on the day of the meeting.

Why the HUD planning process matters (plain English)

CDBG is a federal program that provides annual grants to cities and counties to help develop “viable urban communities,” with an emphasis on benefits for low- and moderate-income residents.

HUD lists eligible CDBG activity types that can include acquisition of real property, relocation and demolition, rehabilitation of structures, and construction of public facilities and improvements such as water and sewer facilities, streets, and neighborhood centers. Activities also must meet required program national objectives.

HUD also requires a citizen participation plan that includes public hearings so residents can share views and get responses during different stages of community development planning.

That’s where “substantial amendments” come in: the CRS summary of HUD’s consolidated planning framework notes that substantial amendments trigger required public participation before approval—which is why Plano is holding hearings and taking public input on the July 27 agenda.

Local tie-in: Douglass Community utilities and the HUD timeline

City materials connect the HUD substantial amendment process to the Douglass Community Utilities Project. The project page says the HUD substantial amendment process takes about 3 to 4 months when it moves through city review and environmental review, but could take longer if additional environmental assessments are needed.

The City’s expectation is that work could begin in November if steps proceed as planned—so this is a real moment for residents to raise questions and priorities before Council considers the HUD-related resolutions.

Bottom line: what to do before July 27

• Write to the City by 5:00 p.m. Monday, July 27 if you want your comments provided to Council.
• Register online to speak during the hearing (and remember: no onsite registration).
• Use the hearings to focus on neighborhood impacts and what you want Council to consider as Plano moves forward with the substantial amendment and the 2026–2027 Action Plan.

In the draft plan materials, the City says it expects to receive $789,015 in CDBG funds for Program Year 2026—running Jan. 1, 2026 through Dec. 31, 2026. The City also says the proposed activities would be organized around HUD national objectives, such as benefiting low- and moderate-income persons, addressing slums and blight, or meeting other community development needs with particular urgency.

What the 2026 CDBG Annual Action Plan is (and where to read it)

The Annual Action Plan is the City’s year-by-year blueprint for how it intends to use CDBG money for Federal Way residents, including projects carried out directly and through partner organizations. The City’s CDBG hub page links to the 2026 Annual Action Plan (draft) and related materials.

Written comments: deadline and where residents sent them

The City’s notice states that written comments on the proposed 2026 CDBG Annual Action Plan and proposed projects were accepted until Monday, July 6, 2026 at 4 p.m. Comments could be forwarded to the City attn: Angelina Allen-Mpyisi at City Hall, or emailed to Angelina.Allen-Mpyisi@federalwaywa.gov.

What the draft plan proposes to fund in 2026 (examples)

Because the document is a draft/proposed plan, specific activities and funding details could change once the City finalizes the Annual Action Plan. Here are examples the draft plan lists for Federal Way’s 2026 Program Year:

• Housing repairs through Habitat for Humanity of South-King County
  • Critical Home Repair Program: $150,000
  • Minor Repair Program: $100,000 (targeting homeowners age 62 and older)
• Economic development and small-business support
  • Highline College – Business Development Center: $97,261.14
  • El Centro de la Raza – Small Business Technical Assistance Program: $87,261.14
  • African Community Housing and Development – Small Business Support: $87,261.14
• FUSION projects
  • FUSION – Security Upgrades (emergency shelter): $66,552.00
  • FUSION – Roof, ventilation and refrigerator project: $341,898.00

What happens next

The City’s July 7, 2026 Council agenda places the Program Year 2026 CDBG Annual Action Plan for council business approval later in the same meeting, after the public hearing. After the meeting, residents can check the City’s CDBG hub for the updated documents and next steps.

This CSB discussion is part of a longer process that feeds into Anaheim’s draft FY 2026-27 HUD Annual Action Plan for CDBG/HOME/ESG/HOPWA funding—followed by City Council approval steps and then HUD submission.

The policy question: a $25,000 minimum guideline for participating nonprofits

In its July 9 agenda packet, CSB reviewed an FY 26/27 “Funding Cycle Updates” framework that compares a “transition year” recommendation to a “$25,000 minimum” guideline approach for nonprofit agencies involved in the CDBG public-service allocation.

The practical takeaway for residents is that the minimum guideline approach can change which nonprofits are funded at what levels—shifting some agencies up to the minimum, while others could be unchanged or reduced based on where the transition-year recommendation lands.

And because CSB is an advisory step in the overall funding workflow, the numbers discussed at the board level are recommendations and planning inputs—not the final, HUD-approved funding list by themselves.

Where it shows up next: the draft HUD plan’s “Public Services by Nonprofits” subtotal

In Anaheim’s draft FY 2026-2027 HUD Annual Action Plan, the city includes a proposed subtotal of $273,331 for “Public Services by Nonprofits” within the CDBG component.

The draft plan lists program line items that include meals programming through Meals on Wheels (including congregate and home-delivered meals for seniors), Pathways of Hope, youth/sports-related programs (including swim scholarships and sports/future fitness scholarships), youth employment services through the YWCA, and legal services connected to Community Legal Aid of Orange County.

For readers, the key timing point is that the Annual Action Plan amounts are best understood as proposed allocations within the planning/approval process—final line-item outcomes depend on the City Council approvals and HUD’s subsequent acceptance and processing.

Public comment window has already closed: April 27 to May 27, 2026

Anaheim’s public notice materials document a 30-day public comment window for the draft FY 2026-2027 Annual Action Plan, running from April 27, 2026 through May 27, 2026.

So the originally scheduled public comment period for this draft cycle has already passed. If the city later considers amendments, any additional opportunities for input would depend on whatever process Anaheim sets for future changes.

Next checkpoint: City Council July 14, then HUD submission by August 16

On July 14, 2026, Anaheim’s City Council agenda materials call for approving CDBG/HOME/ESG/HOPWA subrecipient agreements and approving the HUD Annual Action Plan “in substantial form.” The same agenda item language also cites new federal funds totaling $9,505,222.89.

The city’s council materials also state that Anaheim must submit the final FY 2026-2027 Annual Action Plan to HUD by August 16, 2026.

Even after the July 14 checkpoint, city documents reflect that this is a structured administrative pipeline: CSB recommendations and the draft plan are upstream inputs, and final allocations can still shift through approvals and HUD handling.

What residents should watch next

If the proposed $25,000 minimum guideline is carried through the approval steps that follow CSB’s review, some participating nonprofits could see meaningful changes versus the transition-year framework.

Residents who rely on—or work with—CDBG-supported public-service programs should focus on what City Council approves next, and then watch for the final outcome once the plan is submitted to HUD by August 16.

The county says the Steuben County Legislature will hold a public hearing at 10:00 a.m. on June 22, 2026 at the Steuben County Legislative Chambers, 20 East Morris Street, in the Village of Bath, New York.

The hearing is designed to take public comments on Steuben County’s community development needs and to discuss the possible submission of a 2026 CDBG application. The notice is dated June 9, 2026.

What the hearing is about: possible 2026 CDBG application

According to the county’s notice, the hearing will provide information about the CDBG program and allow residents to take part in developing “any proposed grant applications” and/or provide input with the goal of developing alternative proposals with technical assistance.

$198,000 in CDBG funds proposed for well and septic replacements

The notice says Steuben County is applying for $198,000.00 in CDBG funds to facilitate well and septic replacements.

Why this is tied to low- and moderate-income residents (CDBG background)

HUD describes CDBG as providing formula grants to states, cities, and counties, with an emphasis on low- and moderate-income persons. HUD also notes that, over a 1-, 2-, or 3-year period chosen by the grantee, not less than 70% of CDBG funds must be used for activities that benefit low- and moderate-income persons.

HUD further explains that CDBG requires a citizen-participation plan that includes public hearings where residents can share views about proposed activities—and written responses through the planning process.

State role: New York Office of Community Renewal (OCR)

In New York, HUD says the CDBG program is administered by the Office of Community Renewal. On its OCR page, HCR says the office provides funding to local governments and not-for-profits for public infrastructure, job creation and small business development, and to create and preserve affordable housing. HCR also describes CDBG as partnering with local governments on activities such as job opportunities for low- and moderate-income persons and other community needs.

How to comment: hearing + written deadline of June 26

The county notice highlights two ways to participate:

• Speak at the public hearing on June 22
• Submit written comments due by June 26, 2026

For written comments, the notice says they may be submitted to Marie Myers Shearing, Steuben County Planning Director, 3 E. Pulteney Square, Bath NY 14810 until June 26, 2026.

The notice also says the meeting room is accessible to people with disabilities. If special accommodations are needed for hearing impairments or translation from English, the notice directs people to contact the Clerk of the Legislature’s Office at 607-664-2247 at least one week in advance.

County process context: this is a required citizen-participation step

Minutes from the county’s Agriculture, Industry and Planning Committee meeting on June 3, 2026 show the planning director requested authorization to apply for the CDBG well and septic grant funding and to hold the public hearing related to submitting the application.

In other words: this June 22 hearing is part of the required citizen-participation process before any later CDBG decisions and implementation steps. If you rely on a private well or septic system—or you manage one for a household or rental—this is a practical moment to ask questions about how well/septic replacement efforts would be structured under the CDBG framework for low- and moderate-income beneficiaries.
