State of Montana Annual Action Plan – A Plan to Help Meet the Needs of Montana’s Communities and Residents – Webinar on 3/25

The Annual Action Plan is designed to meet the requirements set forth by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and various housing and community development acts passed by the U.S. Congress. The document is used by federal agencies to make decisions regarding resources made available to Montana for addressing issues related to affordable housing, homelessness, infrastructure, community facilities, economic development, and other community development needs.

The plan consolidates the planning, application, reporting, and citizen participation components of the formula programs that receive funding from HUD, with specific emphasis on the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG),the Home Investment Partnerships (HOME), and the Emergency Shelter Grant (ESG) programs.

Every five years a comprehensive strategic plan, the Consolidated Plan, is prepared and reports on housing conditions; community development issues and market conditions; provides an inventory of housing services and programs; and, describes broad priorities and objectives for housing and community development.
