KEDDO has a long history of
administering CDBG grant applications on behalf of the communities we serve
in the KEDDO District. Through the Oklahoma Department of Commerce (ODOC)
communities can make applications for a variety of programs.
The Community Development Block
Grant (CDBG) program enables rural Oklahoma communities to finance a variety of
public infrastructure and economic improvements that help promote job growth as
a result of these improvements. CDBG funds are provided by the federal
government and managed by the Oklahoma Department of Commerce (ODOC) to help
ensure Oklahoma’s most critical needs are addressed.
Each year, the U.S. Department of
Housing and Urban Development (HUD) provides to Commerce approximately $20
million in CDBG funds that finance economic and infrastructure programs for
rural Oklahoma communities in the form of grants, loans or a combination of
both.
More than 2,000 Oklahoma projects
have been funded and completed since the state began administering the program
in 1982.
Program Objectives
State objectives are consistent with the overall national objectives that are
defined by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) for CDBG
programs:
-
Developing viable urban
communities by providing decent housing and suitable living environment and
expanding economic opportunities, principally for persons of low and
moderate income;
-
Addressing the most serious
community needs of the state, as identified by local governments, while
promoting locally sustainable communities;
-
Eliminating substandard
conditions;
-
Increasing the economic
competitiveness of communities.
Types of Programs
Funded
Typical program areas include water and wastewater system improvements, railway
improvements, streets, storm water drainage improvements, fire protections,
housing demolition or rehabilitation, community and senior citizen centers, and
planning.
Appropriation of
Funds
Commerce manages appropriations and distribution of CDBG money to grant
recipients ensuring that projects are funded efficiently and program objectives
are met. Funds are allocated to specific program areas annually and distributed
to grant recipients between March and April. Most of Oklahoma’s CDBG funds are
allocated to benefit principally low-and-moderate income persons.
Eligibility
General purpose local government entities (incorporated towns/cities and
counties who are not participants in the CDBG Entitlement Program) are eligible
for CDBG funding.
Each grant program has its own
criteria and additional requirements for eligibility as well as its own
application process.
KEDDO currently has six CDBG
grant administrators that will gladly assist you with any of your Economic and
Community Development needs. For assistance with your Economic and Community
Development Projects contact Danny Baldwin at
dbaldwin@keddo.org or at 1-800-722-8180.
