In 2024, the city has been allocated $308,346 from HUD. Up to twenty percent (20%) of this allocation may be utilized by the City for administrative purposes, leaving approximately $247,000 for actions to implement the 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan , a strategic plan for how the CDBG funds would address the needs and priorities for Wenatchee. Additionally, the city has $130,128 of CDBD-CV (Coronavirus) funds that must be spent by July 10, 2026. Any project utilizing these funds must be designed to prepare, prevent, and respond (PPR) to Coronavirus.
