7-Program Activity Budget Template.docx

This is a Program Activity Budget Template document issued by the City of Detroit, Michigan, through the Community Development Block Grant/Neighborhood Opportunity Fund (CDBG/NOF) program administered by the Coleman A. Young Municipal Center. The template is designed for community organizations and other entities to submit budget requests for public service activities funded through the 2027-2028 CDBG/NOF program. The budget form requires applicants to itemize personnel costs by position title, including associated employer taxes and fringe benefits, as well as independent contractor and consultant fees with specified compensation structures. Additionally, applicants must detail operating expenses on a pro rata share basis and identify all specific program or project expenses excluding personnel costs. The template provides separate columns for amounts requested from 2027-2028 CDBG/NOF funding and amounts from other funding sources.

Budget requests submitted using this template must fall within the established range of $50,000 to $100,000 per request. All line items and cost categories in the budget must correspond with supporting documentation and organizational salary schedules, particularly aligning personnel listings with organizational payroll records. Applicants are required to present a comprehensive funding plan that accounts for all project costs, including both CDBG/NOF resources and supplementary funding from alternative sources. This budget framework ensures transparent allocation of Community Development Block Grant resources while maintaining compliance with HUD funding requirements and program guidelines for public service activities in Detroit.
