Community Development Block Grant Program (CDBG) - Berkshire Regional Planning Commission Berkshire Regional Planning Commission (BRPC) assists Berkshire County municipalities in applying for and administering Community Development Block Grants (CDBG), which are awarded on a competitive basis by the Massachusetts Executive Office of Housing and Livable Communities (EOHLC).
CDBG grants are funded by the US Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), through an annual allocation to the Commonwealth, for award by EOHLC to municipalities all across the Commonwealth. In many cases, municipalities may have documented need for projects funded by the CDBG program, but not have the administrative capacity to apply and manage the grants.
CDBG grants can be used to provide a variety of social services, rehabilitate homes of low to moderate income persons, acquire property for revitalization activities, build senior centers, install or upgrade municipal public facilities and infrastructure systems, ADA compliance in municipal buildings, conduct planning studies or to support many other activities designed to strengthen communities.

BRPC also assists the municipalities with project management of CDBG grant funded activities, including procurement of consultants and contractors, coordination of construction schedules, construction observation, monitoring MA Prevailing Wage and Davis Bacon requirements, and processing of contractor pay requests.
