Live From City Hall - Community Development Authority Meeting

The Community Development Authority (CDA) meeting held on May 20, 2026, focused primarily on administrative and planning matters related to federal housing and community development funding. Key procurement-related discussions included the presentation and approval of the annual action timetable for the 2027 program year, which outlines the schedule for public hearings, funding priority setting, and application processes for HUD formula grants such as CDBG and HOME. The CDA approved this timetable to guide the allocation of funds to public service and community development activities, with flexibility for scheduling adjustments. Additionally, the director reported on the receipt of partial funding for the Section 8 rental assistance program, noting a budget alignment of approximately $3.7 million received against a $3.6 million budget. The meeting also addressed challenges in HUD communication and support. No specific contract awards or vendor selections were discussed during this session.
