NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING FOR THE 2024 ACTION PLAN
DuPage County is beginning preparation of the 2024 Action Plan describing the use of these funds for the next program year. The County expects to receive approximately $3.6 million in funding from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) for the Community Development Block Grant Program, $288,000 for the Emergency Solutions Grant Program, and $1.8 million for the HOME Investment Partnerships Act Program for an approximate total of $5.688 million FY2024. The overall goal of these three programs is to develop viable urban communities by providing decent housing and a suitable living environment and expanding economic opportunities principally for low- and moderate- income persons.
