Description:
The California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) has released Amendment #1 for the 2023 Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA). The original NOFA, released September 2023, was for approximately $19 million in federal funds for the CDBG program only for applications from projects that remain on the waitlist established for Over-the-Counter projects after the 2019-2020 NOFA.
This amendment makes an additional $19 million available for Housing, Community Development and Economic Development Projects in an Over-the-Counter process.
Funding for this NOFA is available to the state from the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), pursuant to the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974, as amended, and 24 Code of Federal Regulation (CFR) Part 570 Subpart I “State Community Development Block Grant Program”. These regulations require the state to make funds available to the state’s non-entitlement Units of Local Government. Units of general local government are defined by HUD as political subdivisions of the state, which in California are towns, cities, and counties.
Eligibility:
Only non-entitlement Units of General Local Government such as cities, counties and municipalities that had a Waitlisted Project under the 2019-2020 NOFA or are submitting an application for a new Community Development, Housing, or Economic Development Project are eligible to apply
