Sioux Falls Community Development will hold two public hearings on May 23, 2007, at 2:30 and 7:00 p.m., in the Sioux Falls Main Public Library meeting room at 201 North Main Avenue. The facility is ADA accessible.

The purpose of the hearings is to obtain the views of citizens, public agencies, and other interested parties on housing and community needs in Sioux Falls. These views are used in the development of the City’s priorities for the 2008 Annual Action Plan. The plan will identify the sources and uses of funds from the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program and the Home Investment Partnerships (HOME) Program. It is estimated that the City will receive from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) approximately $845,000 of CDBG funds and $525,000 of HOME funds. Community Development also expects to receive approximately $300,000 from CDBG program income and $90,000 from HOME program income.

Low-income individuals and groups who provide services to low-income or homeless are encouraged to attend.

For additional information, please call 367-8180 (voice), or 367-7039 (TTY for hearing impaired) for communication assistance. Please notify this office at least 48 hours in advance if special accommodations are necessary.
