COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT (CDBG) HOME INVESTMENT PARTNERSHIPS PROGRAM (HOME) FISCAL YEAR 2026-2027 ANNUAL ACTION PLAN (AAP)
The City of North Miami (City) is an “entitlement” community eligible to receive assistance from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) through the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and HOME Investment Partnerships (HOME) programs. The City is expected to receive its Fiscal Year (FY) 2026-2027 allocation of CDBG and HOME funds but has not been notified of the amounts by HUD. In accordance with the public participation requirements and the deadline for submission, the City will use the FY 2025-2026 allocation as an estimate. As such, approximately $789,366 in CDBG funds and $352,458 in HOME funds for FY 2026-2027 is expected. When the City receives the actual allocation, we will publish another notice with those amounts.
CDBG and HOME funds can be used for public facilities, infrastructure improvements, public services, affordable housing, and economic development. Projects must generally benefit low- and moderate- income people, with at least 70% of funding benefiting households with incomes at or below 80% of the area median income. The City must develop an Annual Action Plan (AAP) to describe how the City’s annual CDBG and HOME grant allocations will be used to address the needs, objectives, and goals set in its 2025-2029 Consolidated Plan. After City Council approval, the AAP will be submitted to HUD for approval.
As mandated by the Federal regulations at 24 CFR Part 91, the City is starting a collaborative planning process to get the input of residents and other community stakeholders on using the grant funds. The City will conduct open meetings followed by a 30-day comment period; public comments will then be incorporated into the AAP. Persons living or working in North Miami are encouraged to attend and participate in the meetings/events listed below as well as review and comment on the draft of the AAP.
