Department of Housing and Urban Development December 20, 2022 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) seeks public input to strengthen and improve requirements for entities receiving and implementing Community Development Block Grant Disaster Recovery (CDBG-DR) funding. This Request for Information (RFI) is to solicit feedback to inform how the Department can modify, expand, streamline, or remove CDBG-DR rules and requirements with the goals of expediting long-term resilient recovery, reducing, or eliminating barriers for impacted beneficiaries, ensuring equitable community recovery, and simplifying compliance for CDBG-DR grantees within its statutory authority. Additionally, HUD seeks information and recommendations to reduce the administrative burden for those receiving and implementing CDBG-DR funding after a disaster to accelerate the availability of assistance to disaster survivors and affected communities.
