Work is currently underway on the draft Consolidated Plan which will provide a guide and strategy for the future use of Newton's FY26-FY30 Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) HOME Investments Partnerships Program (HOME) and Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG) federal grant funds.

The Housing and Community Development Division facilitated in-person and virtual public meetings throughout the month of October to gather input on the housing and human services needs in the community in order to develop strategies for the use of these federal funds over the next five years.
