Tioga County Authorizes Competitive CDBG Application
Summary
The Tioga County Commissioners unanimously adopted Resolution R-1-26 authorizing submission of a competitive Community Development Block Grant application to the Pennsylvania Department of Community and Economic Development and certifying compliance with program rules (cites 42 USC 5301 and 24 CFR Part 570).
The Tioga County Board of Commissioners voted unanimously on Jan. 13, 2026 to adopt Resolution R-1-26, which authorizes the county chair to submit a competitive Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) application to the Pennsylvania Department of Community and Economic Development. The resolution cites the Housing and Community Development Act and federal CDBG regulations (listed in the minutes as 42 USC 5301 and 24 CFR Part 570).
The resolution states the county developed a Community Development Plan through citizen participation, including invitations, informational meetings and hearings. The board recorded that if the Pennsylvania agency later determines CDBG funds were expended on ineligible costs or failed to meet a national objective, the county agrees to repay the proportion deemed ineligible from non-federal sources.
