The Westchester Urban County Consortium Needs Your Input

Press release from the Town of Mamaroneck:

Westchester Urban County Consortium wants to hear from you!

The County is conducting a community needs assessment and fair housing survey as part of its requirements to receive federal funding. This is your opportunity to let us know what needs are important to you within your community.

The County will receive funding from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to support three grant programs that will help to address affordable housing and community development needs.

These three grants are:

1. Community Development Block Grant (CDBG)
2. HOME Investment Partnerships Program (HOME)
3. Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG)

Program activities funded by these grants must meet at least one of three national objectives outlined by HUD.

The three national objectives are:

1. Activities must benefit low-to-moderate-income persons or households
2. Prevent or eliminate slums or blight
3. Meet an emergency need that poses a serious and immediate threat to the health or welfare of the community.

We value your input and the survey should only take 5-10 minutes of your time. We appreciate your feedback! (Responses are completely anonymous).
