The City of Quincy is considering applying to Florida Commerce for the FFY 2025 Small Cities Community
Development Block Grant (CDBG). The City is eligible to apply for funds in the neighborhood revitalization,
commercial revitalization, housing rehabilitation categories and economic development categories.
Construction activities funded through the CDBG Program must meet one of the following National
Objectives:
1. Provide benefit to low- and moderate-income persons;
2. Prevent or eliminate slum or blight conditions; or
3. Meet a need of recent origin having a particular urgency.
The types of activities that CDBG funds may be used for include constructing stormwater ponds, paving
roads and sidewalks, installing sewer and water lines, building a community center or park, making
improvements to a sewage treatment plant, and rehabilitating low-income homes. Florida Commerce has
waived the funding limit requirement for this round of CDBG funding. Additional information regarding
the range of activities that could be funded will be provided at the public hearing.
In developing a CDBG application, the City of Quincy must plan to minimize displacement of persons as a
result of the activities. In addition, the City is required to develop a plan to assist displaced persons.
