City of Bangor 1995
Consolidated Plan
For Housing and Community Development
Summary
The Bangor 1995 Consolidated Housing and Community Development Plan
presents a coordinated approach to addressing Bangor's housing and community
development needs over a five year period. The goal of the plan to
integrate economic, physical and human development in a comprehensive and
coordinated fashion so that families and communities can work together and
thrive.
The Consolidated Plan is the first to be developed by the City of Bangor
under new guidelines from the federal Department of Housing and Urban
Development (HUD). It describes the City's plagued use of federal, state and
local funds and other housing resources to address the needs of homeless and
low- and moderate -income households and persons in ways that promote
community and individual stability.
The 1995 Consolidated Plan integrates the application, planning and
citizen participation for Blagor's Community Development Block Grant (CDBG)
program. Ultimately, the Consolidated Plan allows the City of Bangor, its
citizens, housing and relatedservices
providers and citizens, the
Opportunity to create a unified vision for community development actions.
The 1995 Bangor Consolidated Plan, as required by the U.S. Department of
Housing and Urban Development must primarily benefit low- and moderate -income
persons in accordance with the following major goals:
ME Provide decant housing. .assist homeless persons to obtain
affordable housing; retain the affordable housing stock, increase
the availability of permanent housing that is affordable to low-
income households; and increase supportive housing that includes
structural features and services to enable persons with special
needs to live in dignity.
ME Provide a suitable living environment. improve the safety and
livability of neighborhoods; increase access to quality facilities
and s reduce the isolation of income groups within areas by
deconcatrating housing opportunities and revitalizing
deterioratingneighborhoods; restore and preserve natural and
physical features of special value for historic, architectural, or
aesthetic reasons, and conserving energy resources.
ME expand economic opportunities. Within this goal are
eating
jobs accessible to low- and very low-income persons providing
funding for community development that promotes long-term economic
and social viability; and empowering low- and very lowincome
persons in federally assisted and public housing to achieve self-
sufficiency.
