The City of Hopewell is accepting applications for Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Funds from the U.S. Department of Housing & Urban Development (HUD) under Title I of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974, as amended. Requests for Funding proposals must address one of three broad national objectives set forth by HUD: benefit low- and moderate-income persons, aid in the elimination of slums and blight, or meet urgent needs which pose a serious threat to the health or welfare of a community (results of an act of nature).
The CDBG funds are awarded to public and private non-profit entities, Community Housing Development Organizations (CHDO’s), other public agencies, and for-profit entities to carry out eligible public service, housing and community development projects for the residents of Hopewell.
