Final Draft 2023 Annual Action Plan
The City of Seattle announces the release of the Final Draft 2023 Annual Action Plan (AAP) to the 2018-2023 Consolidated Plan for Housing and Community Development. The Final Draft 2023 AAP includes proposed guidance for the allocation of an estimated $20.2 million of federal grant and program revenue funds [approximately $9.5 million in Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds, $3.7 million in HOME program funds, $826,314 in Emergency Solutions Grant Program (ESG) funds and $3.7 million in Housing Opportunity for Persons with AIDS (HOPWA) funds] from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD).
The Annual Action Plan responds to HUD requirements for the City of Seattle to access these funds. The Plan describes the allocations of these funds to address the housing, homeless services, community development, and economic development needs of the City’s low- and moderate-income residents and neighborhoods.
