HUD PRO Housing Grant

The Boulder County Department of Housing and Human Services (HHS) will be applying to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) for the Pathways to Removing Obstacles to Housing Grant. The grant will empower communities that are actively taking steps to remove barriers to affordable housing and seeking to increase housing production and lower housing costs for families over the long term. Barriers to affordable housing can be caused be zoning decisions, land use policies, or regulations; inefficient procedures; gaps in available resources for development; deteriorating or inadequate infrastructure; lack of neighborhood amenities; or challenges to preserving existing housing stock such as increasing threats from natural hazards, redevelopment that reduces the number of affordable units, or expiration of affordability requirements.

HHS is seeking public input on the application before presenting it to the Board of County Commissioners and submitting the application to HUD.
