Consolidated Planning
As a recipient of grant funds from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), Kitsap County and the City of Bremerton participate in and maintain a Consolidated Plan.
The Consolidated Plan is an overall strategy for housing and community development in Kitsap County and its cities. It is a prerequisite to receiving federal HUD funds and guides the County in its consideration and appropriation of grant funds. The Plan contains statistical information, vision statements, policies and strategies that will guide future uses of funds.
What are eligible activities? (Please note not all eligible activities will be funded)
- Acquisition of real property by purchase, lease, or donation
- Acquisition, construction, reconstruction, rehabilitation or installation of public facilities and improvements
- Housing Rehabilitation
- Code enforcement in deteriorated or deteriorating areas
- Clearance, demolition and removal and rehabilitation of buildings and improvements.
- Removal of material and architectural barriers

- Assistance to Community Based Development Organizations (CBDO) to carry out projects
- Assistance to microenterprise businesses and economic development projects as defined under 24 CFR Part 570, Subpart C

- Lead based paint hazard evaluation and reduction.
CDBG programs are federally funded through the Department of Housing and Urban Development. Funding levels are determined by HUD after the Federal Budget is finalized, which often occurs after the program year has begun. The City of Bremerton estimates funding levels in order to start the grant application process; therefore, projects are funded based on estimates. If HUD allocates a different amount to these programs than what was estimated, actual funding awards will be increased or decreased to accommodate the discrepancy.
