m. 2026 CDBG Application (PDF) 2026 CDBG Application (Word) 2026 COI Attachment (PDF) 2026 COI Attachment (Word) CDBG Advisory Board Information The keystone to the annual allocation of CDBG funds in the City of Burlington is the CDBG Advisory Board, which makes funding recommendations to the Mayor and the City Council.
This community-driven allocation process has been in place since the 1980s; the CDBG Advisory Board reviews all funding proposals that were not initiated by CEDO. Half of the members of the CDBG Advisory Board are elected by the Neighborhood Planning Assemblies, three members are appointed by the Mayor, one member represents Burlington youth, and the remaining members represent other stakeholders such as the State of Vermont.
Below is a list of members for the 2026 Board which will meet January - March to review the CDBG applications. A Public Hearing before City Council will be held in the Spring of 2026 to finalize the allocation of CDBG funds.
Burlington's use of a CDBG Advisory Board to make recommendations on the best use of the City's annual federal CDBG appropriation has received national recognition, including a local Best Practice award from the U.S. Department of Housing & Urban Development. The Board makes difficult, community-based decisions about addressing a broad spectrum of poverty-related needs with finite resources.
