The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development is the federal cabinet department responsible for national policy and programs addressing housing needs, fair housing enforcement, and community development. Through its Office of Community Planning and Development, it distributes formula grants such as the Community Development Block Grant program to states, cities, and counties to support decent housing, suitable living environments, and expanded economic opportunity for low- and moderate-income residents. Local jurisdictions, including the City of Austin, prepare Consolidated Plans and annual Action Plans to apply for and administer these federal funds, which is why the department is referenced in city public hearings and grant-related proceedings.
