A public comment period will soon be open for the $14 million in U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development grants awarded to Austin in Fiscal Year 2024. The comments are part of an evaluation of the city’s spending and planning to address the community’s critical housing and community development needs through what is known as a Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report (CAPER). Residents can share feedback online, in person or via mail, email, phone or text from Nov. 19 through 5 p.m. Dec. 5. More information on how to access the CAPER and submit feedback can be found here.
