Description
This program provides funding to improve housing conditions for low- to moderate-income (LMI) residents in Kansas, focusing on rehabilitation, reconstruction, new housing development, and selective demolition of substandard structures. It is part of the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) initiative and is targeted at Kansas cities that do not receive direct CDBG entitlements from HUD. Projects must comply with federal CDBG regulations, align with local housing strategies, and prioritize rehabilitation over demolition (demolition-only projects are not eligible). The goal is to enhance the quality and availability of safe, affordable housing for those most in need.
