COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT
Community Development Block Grant (CDBG)
The Five-Year Consolidated Plan for 2025-2029 and the Annual Action Plan for 2025-2026 are in
progress. The Five-Year Consolidated Plan sets the priorities for the projects that the City and the
Authority will focus on for the next five years. It is our goal to align the priorities set forward in this
plan with those set by the City of Newport News. We are focused on anticipating specific needs to
assist eligible citizens with CDBG and HOME programs.
