As required by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), the City works through its Citizen Participation Plan to determine the allocation of project funds. The final document produced with this procedure is the Annual Action Plan (AAP). The AAP serves as the City’s application and plans for the following CDBG funding year.
