Board meetings and strategic plans from Chester Economic Development Authority
This document details Substantial Amendment #1 to the City of Chester's HOME-ARP Allocation Plan, which outlines the reprogramming of HOME-ARP funds. The amendment reallocates unused funds from Supportive Services and Non-profit Operating primarily to the Development of Affordable Rental Housing. It also updates preferences for assisted rental housing, prioritizing disabled individuals at risk of homelessness and seniors (62+) who are homeless or at risk of homelessness. The plan emphasizes addressing the significant need for affordable housing and supportive services for various qualifying populations within the City of Chester.
