The Department of Planning and Community Development has begun the process to develop the City of Salem’s Five Year Consolidated Plan (2010-2014) and one year Action Plan for the period of July 1, 2010 through June 30, 2011. These plans are required by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) in order for the City of Salem to continue to receive federal funding.
Mayor Kimberley Driscoll would like to invite homeowners, tenants, business representatives, social service organizations and civic groups to participate in the citizen participation process for the development of these plans. Citizen participation will include a public hearing on October 28th at 6:00 p.m. in the third floor conference room at 120 Washington Street and will also include nine additional public presentations at various times and locations. The purpose of these presentations is to give citizens the opportunity to comment on the housing, community and economic development needs of Salem’s low- to moderate-income residents and on the types of activities that should be undertaken to meet those needs. Following these presentations, the draft Five-year Consolidated
Plan and One-year Action Plan documents will be made available for public comment in March.
