Fayetteville Economic and Community Development to host public meetings for proposed annual action plan and consolidated plan

By Staff Report, posted 5 months ago

Starting Feb. 18, the Fayetteville Economic and Community Development (ECD) Department will be hosting four public meetings for residents to provide feedback on the proposed 2025-2026 Annual Action Plan and 2025-2029 Consolidated Plan, which will be submitted to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). 

Residents are encouraged to participate and provide their input on Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), Emergency Solutions Grants (ESG), Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS (HOPWA), Opioid Settlement Fund, and HOME Investment Partnership programs and services identified by stakeholders. 

The four public meetings will be held on the following dates and locations: 

  • Feb. 18 at 6 p.m. - Massey Hill Recreation Center, 1612 Camden Road, Fayetteville, NC 
  • Feb. 26 at 6:30 p.m. - Westover Recreation Center, 267 Bonanza Drive, Fayetteville, NC 
  • March 6 at 7 p.m. - E.E. Miller Recreation Center, 1347 Rim Road, Fayetteville, NC 
  • March 11 at 6 p.m. - Smith Recreation Center, 1520 Slater Avenue, Fayetteville, NC 

Residents who are unable to attend any of the four public meetings are encouraged to attend a public meeting of the Fayetteville Redevelopment Commission, scheduled for March 19 at 2 p.m., at 225 Ray Avenue, Suite 122, or may submit their comments via email at EconCommDev@FayettevilleNC.gov.

Comments will be accepted during the public comment period, Feb. 12 – March 14.

Residents can view the draft Annual Action Plan online by visiting FayettevilleNC.gov/ECD then clicking on the “What’s Happening?” tab.  

“It's important for our residents to be involved. The more input we have from them, the better we can assist our community” said ECD Director Chris Cauley in a press release. “The programs listed in the drafted Annual Action Plan and Consolidated Plan address activities like affordable housing, economic development, job skills training, special needs, youth development and homelessness.” 

Each year, ECD solicits feedback to develop an annual action plan that supports the five-year consolidated plan, a strategic plan for the implementation of Federal programs for housing, community, and economic development within the city. Funds are allocated by HUD to support residents with low- to moderate-incomes.
