To discuss the preparation of the Annual Action Plan for Federal Fiscal Year 2007 and to review the draft of the Action Plan once it is completed. SUMMARY: The State of Florida is required to submit an Annual Action Plan to the U. S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) in order to receive federal funding from that agency. The plan must cover the grant programs funded by HUD. Grant programs included in the Plan are the Florida Small Cities Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), Emergency Shelter Grant (ESG), Home Investment Partnership (HOME) and Housing Opportunities for Persons with Aids (HOPWA). The Plan must specify the manner in which the funds will be distributed to eligible applicants. ACTION TO BE TAKEN: At the workgroup meeting to be held on February 8, 2007, staff from the CDBG, ESG, HOME and HOPWA programs will provide an overview of the programs and answer questions. Interested parties are encouraged to attend. A draft of the Action Plan will be available for review and comment on March 30, 2007, the date of the public hearing. It will also be posted to the Department’s website: http://www.floridacommunitydevelopment.org/cdbg/ ConsolidatedPlan.cfm. Comments on the draft will be accepted from March 30, 2007 through April 30, 2007.
