Council adopts 2025–26 CDBG plan; funding earmarked for Country Village Road rehab and housing aid
Summary
The council approved the city’s Community Development Block Grant annual action plan estimating about $1 million in federal funds for 2025–26, earmarking pavement rehabilitation on Country Village Road, increased housing‑rehab grants (from $10,000 to $15,000 per home), public‑service grants and administrative funds.
The Jurupa Valley City Council held a public hearing on April 17 and adopted the city’s 2025–26 Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Annual Action Plan, a federal funding plan required by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.
Planning staff summarized the city’s consolidated five‑year plan and the annual allocations. The city’s anticipated 2025–26 CDBG allocation is roughly $1 million (final federal allocation pending), and staff presented recommended uses aligned with the adopted consolidated plan: a pavement rehabilitation project for Country Village Road (segment from Visata Way to Granite Hill Drive north of the 60 Freeway), continued public‑service grants (Path of Life and Family Services senior nutrition program previously approved), a housing‑rehabilitation program increase, fair‑housing services and program administration.
Staff proposed raising the home‑rehabilitation per‑house cap from $10,000 to $15,000 to address higher construction costs; the proposed increase would fund repairs for an estimated eight homes in 2025–26. Administration and consultant work—including a contract for fair‑housing services—was budgeted at about $150,000; program services funded this year included public‑service grants approved at the prior meeting (Path of Life $125,000; senior nutrition $25,000). Contractors and homeowner work are reimbursed on completion; staff noted they will adjust budget lines if HUD’s final allocation differs from estimates.
The public hearing received no public speakers on the item, and Councilmember Barajas moved to adopt Resolution No. 2025‑534 adopting the annual action plan; Councilmember Carmona seconded and the council approved the resolution 5–0.
Ending: Staff will finalize the plan and adjust accounts if HUD’s official allocation differs from current estimates; the adopted plan funds pavement rehabilitation, expanded housing‑rehabilitation support and public‑service grants for the coming year.
