Salina City will hold a public hearing on Nov. 11, 2026, to discuss the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Small Cities Program, according to a notice published Oct. 13.
The meeting is scheduled for 6:30 p.m. at 370 West Main, Salina, Utah 84654.
The purpose of the hearing is to provide citizens with information about the CDBG program and allow for discussion regarding possible applications. The hearing will cover expected funding allocations in the region, program requirements, and eligible activities.
Salina City is eligible to apply for funding from the Utah Department of Workforce Services through the CDBG Small Cities Program. This federally funded program is administered by the State of Utah Housing and Community Development Division (HCD). Eligibility for the funding is contingent upon the city meeting applicable program requirements.
The CDBG Program can fund various activities, such as the construction of public facilities and works, including fire stations and water and sewer lines. Other eligible activities include the acquisition of real property and the provision of public services, such as homeless shelters or food banks.
If Salina City decides to apply for CDBG funding, a second public hearing will be held at a later time to discuss the specific project.
The hearing is open to the public, and individuals requiring special accommodations, including auxiliary communicative aids and services, should notify Ashlee Larsen at the Salina City Offices at least three days prior to the hearing. Individuals with speech or hearing impairments may call Relay Utah by dialing 711.
