CDBG & HOME


Community Development Block Grants and HOME Funds
 

The City of Salem receives CDBG and HOME funds from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) whose mission is to, "increase home-ownership, support community development and increase access to affordable housing free from discrimination.  Prior to receiving CDBG and HOME funds, the City must prepare two documents to guide in the successful use of the federal funds: the Consolidated Plan and the Annual Action Plan.  At the end of each program year, the City documents the accomplishments of CDBG and HOME investments in the Annual Performance Report.  Click here for CDBG and HOME fund2007-08 Projects .
