The California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) is holding a public meeting to provide an overview of the Community Development Block Grant-Disaster Recovery (CDBG-DR) Program for residents of Santa Barbara and Ventura Counties who were impacted by wildfires, flooding, mudflows and debris flows in 2017-2018, as a result of FEMA disasters DR-4344 and DR-4353.

HCD is the grantee of CDBG-DR funds allocated by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and works with local governments and organizations to fund programs that provide long-term recovery assistance for housing, infrastructure, and economic revitalization. At this meeting, HCD will discuss proposed recovery programs, program eligibility, and the timeline for funding.

The meeting will take place on October 11, at the Hall of Administration’s Lower Plaza Assembly Room at the Ventura County Government Center, 800 South Victoria Ave. Ventura, from 6pm-8pm.
