1 min read

Cumberland Township Board of Supervisors will hold a public hearing at 6 p.m. June 13 in Nemacolin Fire Company’s hall at 441 Roosevelt Ave. The hearing is being held to obtain citizen input for the development of the township’s proposal for the 2023 Community Development Block Grant Program. The 2023 allocation is $121,089.

Eligible activities include all those listed in the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974 as amended. These include but are not limited to public facilities improvements, infrastructures, housing recreation facilities, street and road improvements, historic preservation, planning activities and clearance.

The main national objective of CDBG funding is to benefit low and moderate-income persons. Portions of the funding can also be used for slums and blight or urgent need.

Citizens may also comment on the township’s prior use of CDBG funds. Special accommodations for people with disabilities or those with limited English proficiency can be requested and obtained by calling 724-966-5805 or 724-966-8558.

The Nemacolin VFC building is accessible to those with disabilities. If you wish to attend and require special accommodations, call the township office 72 hours in advance at 724-966-5805 or 1-800-855-1155 or mesonne@windstream.net.
