Yavapai County is expected to receive approximately $1,308,728 in FY25 federal Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds from the Arizona Housing Authority Regional Treasurer. Counties can also apply for up to $500,000 in FY25 or FY26 CDBG funds from the State Special Projects (SSP) account. CDBG funds must be used to benefit low-income people and communities, reduce slums and blight, and address urgent needs.
Two public hearings will be held at the following locations to gather public input on the use of CDBG funds:
November 27, 2024 9:00 AM
Development Service Office 102
1120 Commerce Dr., Prescott, AZ 86305
December 2, 2024 9:00 AM
Board of Supervisors conference room
10 S. 6th St., Cottonwood, AZ 86326
Sample CDBG projects include:
- Public infrastructure (e.g. water, sewer, street improvements).
- Community facilities (e.g. parks, clinics, libraries, senior or youth centers).
- Housing (e.g., rehabilitation of owner-occupied or multifamily housing, utility connections on private land, new housing constructed by nonprofit organizations).
- Public services (e.g., paying salaries for additional staff to expand Head Start programs, purchasing vans to transport people with disabilities, equipment to start new job training programs, rent).
