2016 CDBG CAPER

The City of Longmont's Housing and Community Investment (HCI) Division is the lead agency for the administration of CDBG funding and the implementation of the Community Development Plan. Internally, the HCI works in collaboration with all City Departments to deliver projects, services and other benefits to eligible neighborhoods and clients.

The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) requires, as part of the Consolidated Plan process, the submittal of a Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report (CAPER) to document the implementation and utilization of HUD funds. HUD uses the CAPER to perform a comprehensive performance review of yearly progress in meeting stated goals and objectives contained in the Con Plan and the annual Action Plan, as required by 24 CFR 91.525.

The 2016 Program Year was the second of the City of Longmont's 5 year Consolidated Plan (2015-2019). We made strides in FY2016 in the Rental Housing programs, Homeownership programs, Homeless Assistance programs, and Community Investment programs. We used our CDBG, CDBG-DR, and local Affordable Housing funds to complete housing rehabilitation, emergency repairs, mobile home repairs, remove impediments for households with a disabled/elderly family member, provided homeownership training and consumer debt counseling, provided support services, provided down payment assistance and made flood repairs or replaced flood-damaged property.
