Notice to City Council
We are pleased to submit the CDBG Annual Allocation Committee's recommended budget allocations
for the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) for the 2026-2027 Program Year. The
information below is intended to provide context for the Committee's role, and explain how its feedback
informed staff recommendations for this year's slate of activities. The committee's role was not to make
final funding decisions, but rather to provide feedback, participate in guided discussions regarding
community needs and priorities, and offer perspectives on the strengths, challenges, and potential
impacts of proposed projects.
Committee members reviewed applications, attended applicant presentations, and engaged in structured
discussions facilitated by City staff. Through this process, members were encouraged to consider how
each proposal aligned with the goals of the City's Consolidated Plan, addressed identified community
needs, and demonstrated the capacity to achieve measurable outcomes. The committee's observations
and recommendations were then considered by staff as part of the development of the final funding
recommendations presented to the City Council.
On April 17, 2026, HUD released the 2026-2027 CDBG allocations for Entitlement Communities.
Together with a projection of unused funding carried over and estimations of funds for planning,
administration, and public services, the City of Bangor's allocation is represented in the table below.

The Agency's expenditure cap for planning and administration is equal to twenty percent of the total

current year. The statutory cap on expenditures for public service projects is equal to fifteen percent
of the total amount of entitlement funds plus the total program income received in the preceding year.
The total amount of unused funds, less unliquidated obligations, are reprogrammed for spending in FY
2026. Program Income projections are based on a five-year average of receipts sourced from revolving
loan payments.

APPLICATION PROCESS AND REVIEW
The City released its Notice of Funding Available (NOFA) on April 7, 2026, coinciding with
Community Development Week. The mandatory applicant's meeting was held on April 241h in the Paul
Bunyan Room of City Hall. The Neighborly Portal CDBG Application was active on April 9;
Submissions were due on Friday, May 8, 2026 by 11:59 pm.
We received eight applications from external (non -City) applicants and four proposals from City Staff.
Just one of the applications addressed a social service activity while the remainder were projects or
programs addressing housing or infrastructure needs.
The Allocation Committee Review and Funding Methods
The Committee first met for this funding year on April 24, 2026 to discuss the CDBG program, eligible
activities, funding requests, and to interview the applicants. In future years, the Committee will begin
these meetings earlier in the year to recruit new members. We would like to encourage anyone
interested in serving on this committee to consider joining us in the fall during our planning meeting.
The Community Development Staff coordinated the applications with a technical overview during the
pre -application period to ensure that each application met basic requirements. These findings were
presented to the Committee before each individual applicant was invited to presentation their proposal
during the annual "Open Mic Night" Committee members read each application individually prior to
the meeting in which the application was to be reviewed and discussed as a group. When questions
about the applications arose, staff documented the questions and forwarded them to the applicant to
respond, and applicant responses were then shared with the Committee and reviewed. Allocation
Committee members then scored each application individually, using the scoring matrix structured in
accordance with the community needs identified in the Consolidated Action Plan and priorities
established by the City Council.
RECOMMENDATION SUMMARY
With the exception of projects proposed by the City, which were not scored, all applications considered
complete received a passing score. Therefore, the Committee does not object to any proposal receiving
funds. Where applicable, the Committee supports the full funding award for each request.
The Allocation process also evaluated the broad funding categories of Administration and Planning, or
requests from City Departments. CDBG Programs such as the Homebuyer Assistance Program and
Residential Rehabilitation are based on statutory restrictions on spending as well as typical demand for
these services. The City's rehabilitation services are systematically funded by returning payments from
previous customers. In recent years, demand for the program has been higher as costs become more
difficult for homeowners to manage. In 2026-2027, the City hopes to support more homebuyers by
allocating 50% more funding toward the program. The Community Development Division also designed
a funding proposal on behalf of the Livable Communities Committee to address lifelong challenges of
accessibility and community cohesion in Bangor.
Unused funding at the end of the year will be reprogrammed the following year by this Committee.

ADDITIONAL CONSIDERATIONS
The FY 2026 CDBG allocation process represented a significant departure from prior years and was
intentionally designed to increase transparency, public participation, and accountability in the use of
federal community development funds. Historically, funding recommendations were developed through
a more staff -driven process. While that approach met program requirements, it offered limited
opportunities for residents and stakeholders to participate directly in funding discussions or to better
understand how allocation decisions were made. In response, staff developed a structured public review
process that included applicant presentations, committee deliberations, and opportunities for public
input.
This process was intentionally designed to strengthen public trust by creating a clear connection among
community needs, project outcomes, and funding decisions. Committee members were encouraged to
evaluate proposals not only on organizational need but also on measurable community impact,
alignment with Consolidated Plan priorities, and applicants' ability to demonstrate results and
accountability.
The process also created a meaningful opportunity for civic engagement. Residents who care deeply
about housing, neighborhood revitalization, economic opportunity, and public services were given a
direct role in shaping how federal resources are invested in Bangor. Through their participation,
committee members gained a deeper understanding of local challenges, the work of community
organizations, and the difficult choices required when funding is limited.
While no allocation process is perfect, we believe this model represents an important step toward a more
collaborative approach to community development. As the process evolves in future years, staff will
continue to evaluate opportunities for improvement while preserving the core principles of openness,
engagement, and public involvement that guided this year's effort.

public improvements.
However, if CDBG funds are used to pay the proportion of a fee or assessment that relates to the
capital costs of public improvements (assisted in part with CDBG funds) financed from other
revenue sources, an assessment or charge may be made against the property with respect to the
public improvements financed by a source other than CDBG funds.
In addition, in the case of properties owned and occupied by moderate -income (not low-income)

to cover the assessment.
