HCR to Hold ConPlan Hearings

Each Year, the New York State Homes and Community Renewal (HCR) develops an Annual Action Plan (AAP) that guides and informs the State's use of important federal housing programs such as the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and the HOME Investment Partnership. The AAP recommends how these funds will be used, in accordance with the needs identified in the State's Consolidated Plan 2016-2020. The hearings are a chance for housing providers to comment on the State's priorities.

Two hearings will be held concurrently at four HCR offices around the State (641 Lexington Ave. in New York City; 38-40 State Street in Albany; 620 Erie Boulevard West in Syracuse; and 535 Washington Street in Buffalo), and be linked by video conference. The hearings will be held tomorrow, May 20 from 1 p.m. until 2 p.m. and on Thurs., May 21, from 10 a.m. until 11 a.m. Written comments can be submitted to HCRConPln@nyshcr.org, prior to Fri., June 5, 2015.
