If you’re looking for an opportunity to provide input on how taxpayer dollars should be spent in Citrus Heights, the City has a workshop for you this Wednesday night.
“We would like you to attend a Community Needs Workshop to provide your perception of critical needs in the community,” reads a statement on the City’s website, notifying the public of the Wednesday meeting.
The workshop is a step in the City’s process of developing a five-year plan to direct federal Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds it has received annually for the past 14 years. Funds have previously gone toward projects and services like free meals for senior citizens, homeless services, housing repair loans and grants, playground equipment, sidewalk installation and street lighting.
The new Plan will cover the years 2015 through 2019 and will identify the City’s priorities for allocating the funds to community needs. Community feedback will be used to help the City assess community needs and develop a strategy to meet those needs.
