Box Elder County will hold a public hearing on Oct. 21, 2026, to discuss the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Small Cities Program, according to an Oct. 9 notice. The meeting is scheduled for 1:00 p.m. at the Box Elder County Courthouse in the Commission Chambers.
The hearing is intended to provide citizens with pertinent information about the CDBG program and allow for discussion regarding possible applications. This session will cover program requirements, eligible activities, and expected funding allocations for the region.
If Box Elder County chooses to apply for CDBG funding, a second public hearing will be held at a later time to discuss specific projects.
Box Elder County is eligible to apply for funding from the Utah Department of Workforce Services under the CDBG Small Cities Program if it meets all applicable program requirements. This is a federally funded program administered by the State of Utah’s Housing and Community Development Division (HCD).
CDBG funds can support a variety of activities, including the construction of public facilities and works such as fire stations or water and sewer lines. The program may also fund real property acquisition and public services, such as homeless shelters or food banks.
Individuals requiring special accommodations or auxiliary communicative aids during the hearing should notify Box Elder County Clerk Marla Young at 1 South Main, Brigham City, Utah 84302, at least three days before the scheduled meeting.
