Who Can Apply
The CDBG program identifies publicly-owned facilities and infrastructure, such as streets, sewers, sidewalks and parks, and buildings owned by not-for-profits that are open to the general public as Public Facilities and Infrastructure Improvements. This includes housing rehabilitation for special populations when the unit is owned by a not-for-profit and will be dedicated to affordable housing. Public Facility and Infrastructure Improvement grants are available to not-for-profits, other tax-exempt organizations, and units of local government that provide facility and infrastructure improvements benefiting low- and moderate-income residents.
