The CDBG Entitlement Program, established in 1974 and administered by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), provides metropolitan cities and urban counties with funds to assist in achieving their goals of neighborhood revitalization, economic development, improved community facilities, prevention and elimination of slums, and assistance to low and moderate-income persons. An appropriation amount is determined by a statutory formula which uses measurements of need. The City of Santa Maria has been participating as an entitlement city under this program since its inception and receives a yearly grant.
For Fiscal Year 2009-10, the City allocated $1,272,055 in CDBG entitlement funds, $30,000 in program income under its revolving loan fund programs and $128 in Fiscal Year 2008-09 CDBG program income. The total amount of CDBG resources that will be available for distribution is $1,302,183. The activities funded with these CDBG monies that are currently being implemented are listed below.
