Census
2000
The
Community Development Block Grant Program (CDBG) requires that each activity
must principally benefit low- and moderate income persons in order to be
funded from CDBG funds. The easiest way to determine this, which is acceptable
to HUD, is to use the census information that they provide to determine the
income characteristics of the beneficiaries within the service area of a
particular project.
HUD has also made a determination that Atlantic County
is an "exception grantee" and that the minimum percentage of
low and moderate income persons that must reside in the service area
for a project to qualify is 45.1%. The smallest area that they will accept
is a "block group". The maps identify each block group in each
municipality. Those block groups that contain at least 45.1% low-mod
residents (total Low/Mod persons divided by the Low/Mod universe information
provided by HUD) are highlighted in purple.
When the municipalities and their engineers are identifying
potential projects and we are qualifying them, the maps provide a visualization
that is invaluable. If the beneficiaries within the service area meet
the 45.1%, the project is eligible for funding. Each project file must
contain documentation that identifies how that determination was made.
If the determination was made based on the census info, copies of the
maps are included.
