Join us for your chance to learn about the strategies that the City of Portland, the City of Gresham, and Multnomah County will adopt to use their federal funds to address local housing and community economic needs over the next five years – and share your thoughts and comments.
The US Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) requires these grant funds (the Community Development Block Grant, the Emergency Shelter Grant, the HOME Investment Partnership, and Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS) benefit low- and moderate-income people and neighborhoods according to the specific priorities established by local jurisdictions.
You are also invited to comment on the Annual Action Plans, a list of projects chosen for their alignment with community-identified needs and strategies. Your comments will be considered as we finalize these plans.
To request language services, accommodations, or childcare, call 503-823-5312. Spanish and ASL interpreters will be present. This meeting is located on MAX lines and near the downtown Portland bus mall. Street/lot parking.
If you are unable to attend but would still like to comment, materials will be available online here by April 1. We will be accepting public comments by phone, email, and mail from April 1 – April 30. For more information, click here to view the current Consolidated Plan and Annual Action Plan.
