Funding opportunities <br />include grants for longstanding programs like the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), the <br />Home Investment Partnerships Program (HOME), and the Emergency Shelter Grant (ESG). The <br />resolution would also provide for one successive three-year renewal at the discretion of the County for <br />the 2030, 2031, and 2032 fiscal years. <br />FUNDING SOURCE: <br />No Funding is required for the approval of this item. <br />ATTACHMENTS: <br />Resolution <br />Item Number: 9.M <br />549 <br />
