Summary

Zoning Director Jeff Kaiser said Wadsworth's 2026 Community Development Block Grant allocation is $150,000 and staff are considering a Bird Street infrastructure project to meet low- and moderate-income eligibility while the state's CHIP contract remains pending with the County.

Jeff Kaiser told the committee the Citys 2026 Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) annual allocation would be approximately $150,000 and that staff were identifying projects that meet low- and moderate-income benefit criteria. He said staff were considering a Bird Street infrastructure project as a likely candidate.

Kaiser also reported the Housing Improvement Program (CHIP) state contract had not yet returned from the County, so direct CHIP-funded housing assistance remains on hold until contract matters are resolved. He said the city would report any formal CDBG project recommendation to the appropriate committee or meeting when final selections were made.
