The Sterling Town Council will hold a public hearing on Oct. 20, 2026, to discuss the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Small Cities Program, according to a report published Oct. 12.
The hearing is scheduled for 8:00 PM at 75 North 100 West, Sterling, Utah 84665. The purpose of the meeting is to provide citizens with information regarding the CDBG program and to allow for discussion regarding possible applications. The session will cover program requirements, eligible activities, and expected funding allocations within the region.
Sterling is eligible to apply for funding through the Utah Department of Workforce Service. This federal program is administered by the State of Utah Housing and Community Development Division (HCD). If the Town of Sterling chooses to pursue CDBG funding, a second public hearing will be held at a later time to discuss specific projects.
The CDBG program can fund a variety of activities, including the acquisition of real property and the construction of public facilities or works, such as fire stations and water and sewer lines. Additionally, the program can provide for public services like homeless shelters and food banks.
