Community Development Block Grant (CDBG)

Community Development Block Grants

The Town of Gilbert receives Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds annually from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. Gilbert utilizes CDBG funds to provide various housing, infrastructure and public facility improvements.

CDBG funds must be used to meet a national objective:

  1. To benefit low and moderate income persons;
  2. To aid in the prevention or elimination of slums or blight;
  3. To meet community development needs having a particular urgency.

While CDBG funds are eligible for public service use, Gilbert opts to utilize all CDBG funds for capital improvement projects. FY 2023-2024 CDBG funds are being used for the following programs:

Community Needs Assessment

The Town of Gilbert is committed to completing a Community Needs Assessment for Gilbert’s human services every five years.  The most recent study was administered by Crescendo.  The prior report was completed by The Williams Institute for Ethics and Management.
