The plan also establish the priorities and strategies to meet those needs. These needs are carried out through the Annual Action Plan, which provides a concise summary of the actions, activities and specific federal and non-federal resources that will be used every year to address the priority needs and specific goals. The City will focus on housing, and economic development.
The City strives for community-wide participation. All comments will be considered in the plan.
