To further the goals of the Imagine Cary Community Plan and Cary Housing Plan, Cary supports work in the key initiative areas of new housing development, housing rehabilitation, and housing stability support services by using a blend of local and federal funds, including Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds.
Every five years, Cary prepares the Consolidated Plan which serves as the primary vehicle for prioritizing the use of the entitlement funding from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). Cary is projected to receive over $700,000 next year and $3.5 million in federal funding over the next five years and is gathering community input to guide how these funds will be used. Citizens are encouraged to respond to the survey and help guide the investment of this critical housing funding.
