Community Development Block Grant Program

The City of San Leandro is one of eight jurisdictional members of the Alameda County HOME Consortium. Alameda County is the lead agency for the Consortium and coordinates the long-range planning and annual application to the U.S. Dept. of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) for San Leandro’s Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) entitlement funding and HOME Investment Partnerships (HOME) allocation. While HOME funds are administered by Alameda County on behalf of San Leandro, CDBG funds are awarded directly to the City. In FY 23-24, the City received $808,949 in CDBG funds and $238,909 in HOME funds available for general administration and affordable housing projects.
