Home investment partnerships program

The Department of Housing and Urban Development's Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development awarded the City of Burlington, Vermont $331,651.99 under the HOME Investment Partnerships Program (CFDA 14.239) on December 5, 2025. The award runs through September 30, 2034 and supports work performed in Burlington, Vermont. The HOME program expands the supply of affordable housing, particularly rental housing, for low and very low income Americans and strengthens state and local government capacity to design and implement strategies for achieving adequate supplies of decent housing. The City of Burlington's Community & Economic Development Office, the recipient, administers the award as part of its portfolio of federal housing and community development grants. Formula allocations under HOME are distributed to states, cities, urban counties, and consortia according to statutory formulas and may not be appealed. Recipients must maintain records documenting compliance with program requirements for the most recent five-year period, with records supporting the period of affordability maintained for five years beyond that requirement. Grantees follow 24 CFR Part 91 and submit Consolidated Plans every five years along with annual action plans and certifications, which HUD reviews within 45 days for completeness and consistency with program purposes.
