HOME ARP Funding

HOME ARP information

The City of Norman was one of 651 State and local Participating Jurisdictions (PJs) that qualified for an annual HOME Investment Partnerships Program (HOME) allocation for FY 2021. As a HOME PJ the City of Norman was designated to receive a HOME American Rescue Plan (HOME-ARP) grant in the amount of $1,516,500. To formally accept and program these funds the City of Norman is required to undergo an extensive consultation process with the general public as well as HUD designated focus groups. The result of these efforts will be included within the development of a HOME ARP Allocation Plan which will be reviewed and approved by the Norman City Council prior to submittal to HUD.

 

The first step in this process is a Public Hearing which will be held at 6pm on December 14, 2022. The location will be the City Council Chambers, 201 W. Gray. At this meeting the general public will have the opportunity to provide input for eligible activities for these funds.

 

Anyone needing reasonable support to be able to participate in this meeting held by the City of Norman should contact Lisa Krieg at (405) 366-5464 or by email at lisa.krieg@normanok.gov at least five days prior to the meeting date.
