Fayetteville Residents Invited to Comment on End-Of-Year Activity Report for 2020 Community Development Block Grant Projects
FAYETTEVILLE, Ark.— The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) provides a Community Development Block Grant to the City of Fayetteville each year to develop projects and activities to improve housing, public and community facilities, and to provide public services, principally for low-to-moderate income residents of Fayetteville. Each year the City prepares a Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report (CAPER) that provides information concerning funding amounts and resources and activities regarding the CDBG. The CAPER for the 2020 program year is now available for public review online at www.fayetteville-ar.gov/cdbg.
The City encourages all its residents, especially those of low- to moderate-income neighborhoods, minorities, and persons with disabilities, to review and comment on the report. Comments will be accepted through March 22, 2021. All comments will be included in the final report, which will be submitted to HUD on or about March 31, 2021.
Residents may comment on the CAPER or request a copy of the report, by emailing community_resources@fayetteville-ar.gov, or by calling 479-575-8260. Comments may also be mailed to: Yolanda Fields, Community Resources Director, 113 W Mountain Street, Fayetteville, AR, 72701.
