City of Mountain View Consolidated Plan Update: Request for Input
Public participation is central to the development of the City of Mountain View’s Consolidated Plan. We are working collaboratively with the County of Santa Clara to help identify affordable housing, homeless and community improvement needs over the next five years.
The City of Mountain View is in the process of updating its Consolidated Plan that identifies spending priorities for federal Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and HOME program funds that the City receives. This most recent update will cover the years 2020-2025 and will prioritize the needs of the community’s low and moderate income population. As part of the Consolidated Plan update, the City will also be preparing a plan to Affirmatively Further Fair Housing (AFFH), which will identify current obstacles to ensuring fair housing opportunities in Mountain View, establish how the City plans to reduce these obstacles, and track progress towards improving fair housing access.
We want to hear from you!
