#4A Attachment Open House Invitation
You are invited to share your vision for the housing
and community development activities within the City
of Janesville for the next five years. The Janesville
Community Development Authority and the
Consolidated Plan Steering Committee are in the
process of developing a 5-Year Housing and
Community Development Consolidated Plan for
2010-2014.
This Plan will guide the use of Community Development Block Grant (CDBG)
and HOME – Rock County funding from U.S. Department of Housing and Urban
Development (HUD). These programs are integral funding sources for many of
the programs and agencies that provide needed services to the citizens of
Janesville. In a broad sense, the goals of the CDBG and HOME programs are to
provide decent housing, a suitable living environment, and expanded economic
opportunities within the City of Janesville. It is the responsibility of the
community to further define these goals and objectives.
Recently, focus groups were conducted and data was compiled. A draft plan is
nearly complete, but it is important that we hear from the Community before
finalizing the draft.
Please join us for an Open House and Public Hearing to define a set of priority
goals and objectives for housing and community development programs in the
City.
Open House: 5:00 – 6:00 PM (Presentation at 5:30 PM)
CDA Meeting (including Public Hearing): Begins at 6:00 PM
Wednesday, September 16, 2009
Municipal Building, 18 N. Jackson Street, City Council Chambers
The information obtained through this Open House and Public Hearing will
provide a valuable source of information in the development of the City of
Janesville’s Housing and Community Development Consolidated Plan.
Thank you in advance for your participation. Should you have any questions,
please contact me: Jennifer Petruzzello, Neighborhood Services Director at
