Draft CFY 2023 Annual Action Plan
The Baltimore City Department of Housing & Community Development (DHCD) and the Mayor’s Office of Homeless Services (MOHS) conducted an on-line public hearing on Wednesday, July 20, 2022, at 6:00 p.m. The purpose of this hearing was to provide the public an opportunity to discuss and comment on the draft Annual Action Plan for city fiscal year (CFY) 2023 which was released on June 27, 2022.
The draft Plan serves as the application for funding received through four federal formula grant programs: Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), HOME Investment Partnerships (HOME), Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG) and Housing Opportunities for Person With AIDS (HOPWA). Activities contained in this draft Plan support the strategies outlined in the City’s five-year July 2020 – June 2025 Consolidated Plan. The draft Plan specifies the activities on which federal resources will be spent during the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2022.
It should be noted that a formal notice was received at the end of May concerning the annual allocation amounts to be granted by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to Baltimore City for its four formula grant programs for fiscal year 2023 which starts July 1, 2022. The HUD notice was received considerably later than usual due to delays in the passage of the federal budget. Once we became aware of the award amounts, the Department of Housing and Community Development and the Mayor’s Office of Homeless Services were able to finalize the draft Annual Action Plan which serves as an application for these funds. We were able to release the draft Plan for public review and comment and following the required public meeting, submitted the final draft Plan to HUD in early August. It is anticipated that HUD will approve the Plan in September, at which time completed CDBG contracts will start being sent to the Board of Estimates for approval.
The chart below identifies the amount of funding by program allocated to the City of Baltimore by HUD for CFY 2023.
