Head of Disaster Question:
Do you know how will low-and-moderate-income households benefit from the grants?
Answer:
The Appropriations Act requires that 50% of CDBG-DR funds must be used for activities that benefit persons of low- and moderate-income. The provision can only be waived by the Secretary of HUD, and even then, only when a compelling need is specifically identified.
