Release of Public Service Application for Program Year FY2026 CDBG Support
All Applications for Public Service Activities are due no later than 4:00 PM on Tuesday, Sept. 2nd
This is the official release to interested City of Euclid departments and nonprofit organizations, who wish to provide Public Services to Euclid residents. Such Public Services include – Senior and Youth Programs, Education Programs, Housing Counseling Programs, Fair Housing, and Services for Individuals with Disabilities. Funding for these programs would be supported by City of Euclid’s annual allocation of Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds for Fiscal Year (FY) 2026.
Please see the FY 2026 Euclid CDBG Public Services Grant Guidebook (attached), which will provide links to the City of Euclid’s FY2025 – 2029 CDBG Consolidated Plan, and the 2018 City of Euclid Master Plan. Please ensure that your program is aligned with both of these plans and initiatives. Follow this guidebook closely for a strong proposal. All programs must be completed within one (1) year.
Remember that the City of Euclid is limited in the amount it can allocate for Public Services with CDBG funding. For example, if the City’s CDBG award is $1,000,000, Public Services are capped at 15% per federal regulations. For example, $1,000,000 CDBG Award x 15% Public Service Cap = $150,000 Allowed for Public Services. It is important to bear this mind when applying.
The FY2026 CDBG Public Service Application is a fillable PDF. Please be concise in your application about your program under each text box. Also, remember that after printing your name, title, and date on the Signature Page (Page 10), to print the page, wet-sign at the line “Organization Director Signature,” scan, and include in your application with your required support documents.
