SUMMARY EXPLANATION:
As required by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), the City of Yakima
must provide two public input meetings on the 2025-2029 Consolidated Plan and the 2025 Annual Action

August 4, 2025.
The Five Year Consolidated Plan documents the affordable housing and community development needs.
It provides policy guidelines for how CDBG and HOME funds may be used. The 2025 Annual Action
Plan outlines of how the federal funds received (Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and
HOME Funds) will be used within the policy guidelines to address housing and community needs.
The City of Yakima seeks to encourage viable community development by promoting integrated
approaches that provide decent housing, a suitable living environment, and expand economic
opportunities for low- and moderate-income persons. Acceptance of the Five Year Consolidated Plan
and the 2025 Annual Action Plan will allow the City to be in compliance with federal requirements and
utilize allocated federal funds to address housing and community development needs.
