Community Development Block Grant - Disaster Recovery Program Timing

Summary

HUD OIG is auditing the Office of Community Planning and Development (CPD) to determine whether it is tracking and improving the timing of its delivery of the Community Development Block Grant - Disaster Recovery (CDBG-DR) program funds over the last 20 years, and whether CPD has met Congressional allocation timing requirements. Specifically, HUD OIG will be measuring the timing of three CDBG-DR program delivery points: (1) CPD’s allocation of the funds to grantees, (2) the grantees’ submission of their initial action plans, and (3) CPD’s execution of grant agreements. The CDBG-DR Program provides flexible grants to help State, cities, counties, parishes, and territories to rebuild the areas affected by Presidentially declared disasters and provide crucial seed money to start the recovery process.
