CDBG is an annual grant from the US Department of Housing and Urban Development. With the use of these funds states, cities and counties are encouraged to implement a wide range of community and economic development activities. Historically, Mesquite has used the funds for housing rehabilitation, infrastructure improvements, community policing and counseling services. The goals and objectives for the grant are outlined in the Consolidated Plan, which is updated every three to five years. The Citizen Participation Plan outlines how the community may play a role in the process that determines the use of the funds. The Neighborhood Development Specialist is responsible for the daily administration and monitoring of the grant, updates to the Consolidated Plan and the implementation of the Citizen Participation Plan.

If you have any questions or comments regarding the CDBG program, please contact the Neighborhood Development Specialist at (972) 329-0941.
