The City of Plattsburgh will hold a public hearing on July 17th 2025 at 5:30PM at 41 City Hall Place in the Common Council Chambers for the purpose of hearing public comments on the City of Plattsburgh’s community development needs, and to discuss the possible submission of one or more Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) applications for the 2025 program year. The CDBG program is administered by the New York State Office of Community Renewal (OCR) and will make available to eligible local governments approximately 100 million dollars for the 2025 program year for housing, economic development, public facilities, public infrastructure, and planning activities, with the principal purpose of benefitting low/moderate income persons.
