After appropriation by Congress, HUD will calculate and announce allocations, and publish a Federal Register Notice.
If the County is announced as a formal grantee and is provided an allocation amount, the County shall:
Finalize and submit drafted financial management policies and certifications to HUD for approval.
Present a draft CDBG-DR Action Plan to the community at large for comments. The Action Plan includes a needs assessment, community and stakeholder engagement, and identification of activities that the grantee will undertake under its recovery or mitigation program. Action Plans also detail funding amounts, sources of other funds, and implementation partners.
Submit the CDBG-DR Action Plan with comments to HUD for approval.
Funds can only be disbursed to CDBG-DR grantees after HUD approves the CDBG-DR Action Plan.
