For the CDBG Annual Competition, one hundred fourty-seven local governments submitted requests for over $67 million in projects across the state while approximately $33 million was available to fund local proposals.  With these available dollars, 70 projects will receive funding and move forward this year.

For other CDBG set-asides, an additional $6 million was recently invested for economic development projects in 15 Georgia communities.  The CDBG funds for the 15 projects will leverage over $450 million in private investments for economic expansions that will create over 1,700 jobs for Georgians.

The Recipient's workshop will be held September 15-16, 2011 at The Edgar H. Wilson Convention Centre in Macon Georgia, 200 Coliseum Drive, Macon Georgia 31217.  The workshop memo and draft agenda are below.

To register for the workshop, see the information below under the 'CDBG 2011 Recipients' Workshop' heading.

For those local governments not receiving awards this year, DCA will provide an explanation of CDBG scores and suggest ways to improve your application for next year's competition.
