Summary
Council unanimously adopted the city's 2026–2027 CDBG annual action plan, applying for $99,255 (about $83,655 for housing repairs and $15,600 for planning/administration), and approved a $2,500 contingent contribution to Jackson Middle School for track resurfacing.
The Vienna City Council unanimously adopted a resolution authorizing submission of the city’s 2026–2027 Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) annual action plan and approved a $2,500 contribution to Jackson Middle School for track resurfacing contingent on the county board’s approval.
Mr. SK read the CDBG resolution and listed the proposed use breakdown: $83,655 for housing energy-efficiency repairs (windows, doors, HVAC, roof, gutters, water heaters) and $15,600 for planning and administration, for a total of $99,255. Council members praised the program as providing home-repair assistance to income-eligible residents and noted city staff who help administer the grant.
Separately, the council approved a resolution to contribute $2,500 toward resurfacing at Jackson Middle School; the contribution is contingent on approval by Jackson Middle School and the county board of education. A council member noted this is in addition to prior assistance for a wrestling/training area and that the track funding would be dedicated specifically to resurfacing.
Both measures passed by voice vote; the transcript records unanimous approval for the CDBG resolution.
