The Consolidated Plan for Housing and Community Development is a four-year plan updated annually by the City of Seattle.

Read the Consolidated Plan Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) for more information.

The 2009-2012 Consolidated Plan for Housing and Community Development guide the City of Seattle’s expenditure of four federal fund sources:

• Community Development Block Grant ($12 million to $13 million per year)
• HOME Investment Partnership (about $5 million annually)
• Housing Opportunities for Person with AIDS, or HOPWA (about $1.6 million annually)
• Emergency Shelter Grant Program (about $540,000 annually)

The plan outlines long-term strategies to address the housing, homeless, community, and economic and human development needs of Seattle’s low- and moderate-income residents.

Every year the City of Seattle is required to report to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development how we have used the four Consolidated Plan funds. This report, published every March, is called the Consolidated Annual Performance & Evaluation Report.
