City of Harrisburg Annual Action Plan 2025
for the Department of Economic
Development and Building and Housing.
And with us this evening is Christian
Spencer. He is one of our HUD
consultants with Civotas. We're here
this evening to discuss the 2025 annual
action plan. This is our public hearing
that is required by HUD. It is June 26,
2025.
The consolidated plan and action annual
action plan
CDBG home and ESG is administered
through the consolidated plan referenced
as con plan and managed through HUD's
integrated dispersement and information
system called IDIS
online.
The con plan and annual action plans
helps grantees determine activities and
organizations to fund in the coming
years. The con plan is five years in
length and describes community needs,
resources, priorities, and proposed
activities to be undertaken under
certain HUD programs.
The annual action plan. The annual
action plan, which we refer to as AAP,
is submitted to HUD every year during
the five-year con plan cycle. The AAP
describes the specific plan uses for HUD
programs as well as certain other
program requirements.
The 2025 action plan funds
funding for community development block
grant. The HUD 2025 allocation
we anticipate will be 1,86,820.
Program income $15,000.
And related to that program income um is
uh payments uh from homeowners who have
sold their homes prior to the required
five-year timeline or they had previous
loans with the city or and are repaying
those home uh those um payments back to
us. So the total would be1,821,820.
Home funding $469,627.19.
And the income would be $10,000 again.
Again, that's payback on loans, which
would give us a total of $479,627.19.
ESG. ESG for your for clarification are
the dollars that we use to help serve
our unhoused population in the city of
Harrisburg. We anticipate $163,869.
There will be no program income, giving
us the total of $163,869.
Given the current climate in DC, it's
becoming a national trend to focus on a
few larger projects that will have a
greater impact on our city than
sprinkling resources over a lot of
smaller projects. In addition, our last
funding cycle did not generate a lot of
interest for 2023 24
funding.
So it has been the decision of the mayor
that we will focus on infrastructure
projects for the 2025
funding
priority needs. Number one, public
facilities and infrastructure to improve
and expand public infrastructure
s such as streets, sidewalks, water,
sewer, ADA improvements, lighting and
security cameras
and improve access to public facilities.
Two, public services.
Three, removal of slum and blight
demolition
and blight removal. affordable
housing development, rental housing
development, home ownership, housing
development, owner occupied housing
rehab, such as our HRP
home rehab program,
homeless and housing services, reduce
homelessness.
Again, that's our ESG funds and that's
that's managed by an organization we
call CAT. That's Capitol Area Coalition
on Homelessness
Section 108 loan repayment.
And that is a debt that the uh city um
carries and we hope to have that paid
off in late um 2026.
The 2025 annual action plan goals to
improve and expand public
infrastructure.
5,000 low to moderate income persons
assisted. Improve access to public
facilities. 20,000 low moderate income
persons assisted. Demolition and blight
removal. Buildings demolished. Rental
housing development. Rental units
constructed. Home ownership housing
development. Two homeowner housing units
construct constructed, I'm sorry. And
owner occupied housing rehab. 30
homeowner units rehabilitated.
Reduce homelessness. 500 persons
experiencing homelessness provided with
shelter. 15 persons at risk of
homelessness provided prevention
services.
and section 108 loan repayment
is an NA
2025 action plan projects and funding.
And so we'll go down the uh budget
again. Community development block grant
administration $361,364.
Community Development Block Grant,
public facilities and infrastructure,
$511,456.
Community Development Block Grant
Housing Programs, 500,000.
Community Development Block Grant
Emergency Demolition, $224,000.
Home I'm sorry, CDBG section 108 loan
payments 225,000.
Home administration $46,962.
Home CHTO set aside 15%. Now that CHTO
15% is not for developers to use for
their own uh administration. Uh it's for
things like project development fee fees
that developers would need need to um uh
complete their projects. Home nonchoto
housing development
$362,221.19.
And let me go back to the home choto,
which the set aside is $40,444.
ESG 2025 for the unhoused, that's
$163,869.
