CDBG Public Meeting #6:

This was a public meeting held by Clay County, Florida on July 21, 2026, to discuss the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) 2026-2030 Consolidated Plan and the 2026 Annual Action Plan. The meeting focused on the allocation of HUD entitlement grant funds aimed at benefiting low to moderate income residents through community development projects. The proposed plan allocates approximately 60% of funds to infrastructure projects such as sidewalks and ADA-compliant improvements, 25% to parks and public facilities enhancements, 10% to nonprofit expansion and community partnerships, and 5% to administration. The 2026 annual action plan estimates receiving $1,577,772 from HUD, with specific projects including new sidewalks, ADA ramps, and park accessibility improvements. The county commission will review and potentially approve or adjust the plan in upcoming meetings, with public feedback being incorporated. Funding disbursement is expected to begin in the first quarter of the county's fiscal year starting in October 2026.
