The City of El Paso Needs Your Input

Community Meetings for the
Five-Year Consolidated Plan (2010-2015)

WHO: City of El Paso’s Department of Community and Human Development

WHAT: Community Meetings to Receive Input for the
Five-Year Consolidated Plan (2010-2015)

WHEN/WHERE: Listed Below

WHY:
The Department of Community and Human Development is in the process of developing the Five-Year Consolidated Plan (2010-1015) for the City of El Paso. In this plan, we must identify community needs and priorities and discuss how we will address them over the course of the next five years.

City Council will use this Five-Year Consolidated Plan to help decide how to best use grant funding received from the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) during the next five-years. Therefore, we need input from the community in order to identify needs and priorities to include in the Plan.

The Department of Community and Human Development receives the following entitlement grants from HUD: Community Development Block Grant (CDBG); Emergency Shelter Grant (ESG); HOME Investment Partnerships (HOME) Grant; and Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS (HOPWA) Grant. These grants fund numerous programs and neighborhood improvements that improve the quality-of-life of low-to-moderate income families in El Paso.
