org/SmallCitiesCDBG) The Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program is a federal program that provides funding for housing and community development activities. Congress created the program when it passed the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974. The program, which is administered by the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), consists of two components: 1.
Entitlement Program - funds are provided directly to urban communities, and 2. State Program - funds are allocated to the states for distribution to eligible non-entitlement communities FloridaCommerce administers the State Program in Florida through the Small Cities CDBG Program. This is a competitive grant program that awards funds to units of local government in small urban and rural areas.
FloridaCommerce receives between 18 and 26 million dollars annually from HUD to award subgrants to eligible units of local government. The program provides an excellent opportunity for communities to obtain funds for projects that they cannot otherwise afford. CDBG funds can also provide administrative support for local governments that may not have the staffing resources necessary to administer their projects.
Examples of CDBG-funded projects include: * Water and Sewer Improvements, * Rehabilitation of Substandard Housing, * Street and Sidewalk Improvements, * Economic Development Activities that Create Jobs for Low-and Moderate-Income People, * Downtown Revitalization, including Facade Improvements, Streetscaping, and Underground Utilities, * Park Facilities and Community Centers, and * Drainage / Stormwater Improvements.

Non-entitlement units of local government are eligible to apply for funding in any of the three program areas if they have an open CDBG subgrant in one of the three areas. FloridaCommerce also has funding available in the Economic Development program area for job creation and/or retention activities.
