As an “entitlement” community, the City of Boynton Beach (City) receives an annual allocation of formula block grant funding of Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). As such, the City must develop an Annual Action Plan for use of these funds annually. The city has completed its Annual Action Plan draft for FY 2023 and is required to give Boynton Beach community members the opportunity to provide comments on the draft of the plan.
For FY 2023, the City will receive $550,522.00 in CDBG funds. In addition, the City will reprogram $334,011.58 of CDBG prior year resources (FY 2021). CDBG funds can be used to develop a stronger community by providing decent housing, creating suitable living environments, and expanding economic opportunities, principally for people of low and moderate incomes. The Plans will be submitted to HUD by August 15, 2023. The projected use of funds for FY 2023 are provided below. The FY 2023 Annual Action Plan will be submitted to the City Commission for approval on August 1, 2023, at 6:00 pm.
A draft copy of the City's FY 2023 Annual Action Plan will be available to the public starting on June 23, 2023 until July 24, 2023, in the City’s Community Improvement Division and at the Public Library at 100 E.
