Cumberland County Community Development (CCCD) is continuing its efforts to enhance citizen participation by inviting residents to register for upcoming public hearings to ask questions, learn more about funding programs and voice opinions.

The Five-Year Consolidated Plan (ConPlan) is a report that must be submitted to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The plan outlines the community's available resources and needs. It also establishes goals and strategies that Community Development will implement over the next five years (July 1, 2025, through June 30, 2030).

The Annual Action Plan (AAP) lists specific projects that will be undertaken during the 2025 Program Year, beginning July 1, 2025.

Cumberland County encourages residents and agencies to provide feedback on the 2025–2030 ConPlan and AAP. Community Development will host two virtual public hearings on March 25 and 26, 2025.

Each hearing will include a formal presentation. Please register to attend one of the following virtual sessions:

  • March 25: 8–9 a.m. & 10–11 a.m. (Morning Sessions); 1–2 p.m. & 3–4 p.m. (Afternoon Sessions)
  • March 26: 8–9 a.m. & 10–11 a.m. (Morning Sessions); 1–2 p.m. & 3–4 p.m. (Afternoon Sessions)

Visit https://attendee.gotowebinar.com/rt/2449945449053156960 to register for the virtual sessions. Registrants will receive a confirmation email containing instructions for joining the webinar.
