Details:
The City of Idaho Falls Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program is administered by the Planning Department. This program is funded by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). Over $400,000.00 is received each year to benefit low and moderate income (LMI) persons or prevent conditions of slum and blight.
In 2004, the City of Idaho Falls applied to the Housing and Urban Department (HUD) for Entitlement status and was approved as an Entitlement City. This status allows the City to file directly to HUD for annual Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds that may be allocated towards projects that benefit low and moderate income (LMI) individuals, prevent, or eliminate conditions of slum and blight, or that meet an urgent need. LMI is defined as 80% of the community median income. In 2023, a family of four living in Idaho Falls (Bonneville County) with an income less than $68,300 was considered as LMI clientele. PY2024 Income Limits will apply once announced by HUD.
All projects and activities must demonstrate that a majority of the resulting benefit is for low- and moderate-income residents of Idaho Falls and must be quantifiable or able to document the benefit/beneficiaries.
If interested in applying, please provide a letter of request, as the application, and include the following:
- Organization’s Name, Complete Address, Phone Number, DUNS number, EIN/TIN number.
- Complete contact information of grant applicant or responsible party (include email, mailing address, and phone number).
