Objective
The overall CDBG program objective is to develop viable urban communities, by providing decent housing and a suitable living environment, and by expanding economic opportunities, principally for persons of low and moderate income. CDBG DR program funds appropriated by P.L. 113-2 are for necessary expenses related to disaster relief, long-term recovery, restoration of infrastructure and housing, and economic revitalization in the most impacted and distressed areas resulting from a major disaster declaration due to Hurricane Sandy and other eligible events in calendar years 2011, 2012, and 2013.
Type of Assistance
A - Formula Grants
Applicant Eligibility
CDBG Disaster Recovery funds are made available to States and units of general local governments designated by the President of the United States as disaster areas. These communities must have significant unmet recovery needs and the capacity to carry out a disaster recovery program (usually these are governments that already receive HOME or Community Development Block Grant allocations). Grantees may use CDBG Disaster Recovery funds for recovery efforts involving housing, economic development, infrastructure and prevention of further damage to affected areas. However, CDBG DR funds may not be used for activities reimbursable by or for which funds are made available by the Federal Emergency Management Agency or the Army Corps of Engineers.
Beneficiary Eligibility
The principal beneficiaries of CDBG DR funds are low- and moderate-income persons (generally defined as a member of a family having an income equal to or less than the Section 8 low income limit established by HUD) in communities that have experienced a disaster event. At least 50 percent of each grantee's CDBG-DR grant award must be used for activities that benefit low- and moderate-income (LMI) persons. These can be either activities in which all or the majority of people who benefit have low or moderate incomes or activities that benefit an area or service group in which at least 51 percent of the populous are of low- and moderate-income. Grantees must meet the 50 percent LMI expenditure requirement unless a waiver has been requested by the grantee and approved by HUD.
