The City of Tucson receives an annual entitlement allocation from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG), Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS (HOPWA), and HOME Investment Partnership (HOME) Programs. The City of Tucson participates in collaborative long-range planning related to the use of HUD entitlement program funds in concert with Pima County. Long-range planning activities result in the development of a Joint Tucson/Pima County Consolidated Plan which is published every five years and defines community needs, priorities, and goals toward which entitlement funds will be directed to improve community and economic development, housing stability and affordability, and social services in the City of Tucson and throughout Pima County.
We are seeking feedback from the community on the program year 2026 annual action plan, please take a few minutes to complete this survey found here.
Each year, the City of Tucson produces an Annual Action Plan which more specifically describes the intended use of HUD entitlement funds in furtherance of the Consolidated Plan goals. The overarching objectives of the Consolidated Plan, and associated Annual Action Plans, seek to address challenges related to affordable housing, homelessness, and community development. By centering these challenges within the City of Tucson’s efforts, the City seeks to improve the quality of life experienced by low- and moderate-income Tucsonans, enhance the physical environment of Tucson neighborhoods, expand housing opportunity, and reinforce community safety nets, especially among special needs groups including youth, older adults, and persons with disabilities.
