Lasting Manatee (CDBG-DR grant)
HUD requires that 70% of all CDBG-DR funds must be spent on activities that benefit low- and moderate-income (LMI) populations. Additionally, all CDBG-DR activities must meet the following requirements:
- Be an eligible activity under CDBG regulations (24 CFR Part 570).
- Meet one of three CDBG National Objectives (24 CFR 570.208).
- Tie back to the specific disaster(s) for which the funds were appropriated.
When implementing CDBG-DR activities, the County must follow all HUD and other applicable regulations such as Davis-Bacon and Related Acts (DBRA), environmental review, minimizing displacement, public participation and other requirements. The exact requirements depend on the specific details of each activity and/or project.
