Home investment partnerships program

The Department of Housing and Urban Development's Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development awarded the City of Bridgeport $944,989.56 under the HOME Investment Partnerships Program (CFDA 14.239) on December 23, 2025, for performance through September 30, 2034. The award is a formula grant distributed to expand the supply of affordable housing, particularly rental housing, for low and very low income residents. Work is performed in Bridgeport, Connecticut. The program requires the city to submit a Consolidated Plan every five years and annual action plans and certifications each year; HUD reviews submissions for completeness and consistency with program purposes within 45 days of receipt. The city must maintain records documenting compliance with program requirements for the most recent five-year period, with affordability documentation retained for five years beyond the required retention period. The city operates under 24 CFR Part 91 requirements as a condition of receipt.
