On Dec. 13, the Housing & Planning Department will begin a 15-day public comment period to receive comments on its draft Fiscal Year 2021-22 Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report, or CAPER. According to the announcement, HPD “receives the following grant entitlement funds annually from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development for affordable housing, community development, economic development and public services: Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), HOME Investment Partnership Program, Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG), and Housing Opportunities for Persons With AIDS (HOPWA).” Cities that participate must develop a CAPER each year to monitor the city’s progress and the effectiveness of its performance. During the comment period, community members may view the draft FY 2021-22 CAPER on HPD’s website and follow the instructions on how to submit comments.
