Eligible work includes community facilities, infrastructure, affordable-housing acquisition or preservation, neighborhood improvements and a limited range of public services. Projects must benefit low- and moderate-income residents and satisfy federal program requirements and County planning goals.
Only public entities and tax-exempt nonprofit organizations can receive funds. Residents may propose project ideas, but cannot receive an award directly through this program.
The County directed applicants with projects in Coronado, Del Mar, Imperial Beach, Lemon Grove, Poway and Solana Beach to their local housing departments. Other cities administer their own federal block-grant programs.
Applications and guidance were made available through County Housing and Community Development Services. The notice opens a funding process; it does not identify selected projects or award amounts.
