Partnerships Program (HOME), Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG) and Housing Opportunities for People

activities using prior years' CDBG and HOME funds. The purpose of these grant funds is to primarily
benefit low and moderate income City residents with ESG funds primarily benefiting homeless persons
and HOPWA funds primarily benefiting persons with HIV/AIDS.
Staff developed recommendations for the allocation of the estimated funding from HUD and presented
them to the Community Development Council (CDC) on May 20, 2015 and to the City Council at its Pre-
Council meeting on June 16, 2015. Notice of a 30-day public comment period from July 1, 2015 to July
31, 2015 was published in the Fort Worth Star-Telegram on June 28, 2015. Any comments received will
be maintained by the Neighborhood Services Department in accordance with federal regulations. The
City will hold two public hearings as part of the HUD-required citizen participation process, the first on July
28, 2015 and the second on August 4, 2015 at which time the City Council is scheduled to approve the
Action Plan. In addition, public hearings were held on June 18, 2015 at 11:30 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. for
citizens to provide comment on the proposed list of neighborhood streets eligible for reconstruction using
CDBG funds.
