CDBG-DR funds typically rebuild disaster-damaged housing stock and expand affordable options for low- and moderate-income households. The awards rank among the city's largest single commitments of disaster recovery money to rental housing.

With approvals in place, the projects advance to compliance review, financing closings, and construction scheduling. The city administers the funds and monitors compliance with federal affordability requirements.
