The Department of Community Development was established by the City Commission in 1972. It originated as the Sioux Falls Housing and Urban Renewal Office in 1968. Community Development, or CD, is a department of City government.

The Citizen Participation Plan is an important part of the Community Development Program. It is a local effort to meet local needs and is guided and administered by an advisory committee and the CD office. Citizen input is sought for the planning and execution of the Community Development Program. The Mayor maintains final approval for allocation of all funds.
