Regulations
In 1995, HUD created the Consolidated Plan to serve as the planning document (comprehensive housing affordability strategy and community development plan) of state or local grantee governments and to support their applications for funding under any of the Community Planning and Development formula grant programs: the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program, HOME Investment Partnerships (HOME) Program, Emergency Solutions Grants (ESG) Program, and Housing Opportunities for Persons With AIDS (HOPWA) Program. 24 CFR Part 91 contains the regulations that set forth the Consolidated Plan submission requirements. 24 CFR Part 91 is being revised as a result of changes in the Emergency Solutions Grants Program. The ESG Interim Rule includes both changes to the Emergency Shelter Grant Program regulations at 24 CFR Part 576 and conforming changes to the Consolidated Plan regulations at 24 CFR Part 91.
