# Community Development and Housing Grant Commission, Public Meeting, 11-10-26

The McHenry County Community Development and Housing Grant Commission met on November 10, 2026. The commission deferred approval of the prior meeting’s minutes. Staff reported that 2026 grant agreements were awaiting completion on HUD’s end. For the 2027 funding cycle, agencies previously receiving funding were notified that grants would be limited to infrastructure at public facilities; a public notice was also posted in late August. The restriction reflects HUD direction, and staff will review applications. An informational session for prospective applicants is scheduled for November 19. No contract awards, spending votes, or dollar amounts were reported.

Staff also reported on project monitoring: two of three attempted project visits were completed, including a visit to a completed infrastructure project. A previously approved 2025 window-replacement project for Senior Services Associates had been amended to HVAC work but was not completed because of staff capacity and accounting turnover. The commission discussed access to a list of current projects and meeting scheduling. Staff expects to discuss goals for the 2028 annual action plan in February; no further procurement or spending actions were taken.
