This is a Selection Committee Consolidated Evaluation Scoresheet for Brevard County's 2026-2027 Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Public Services Program, administered by Brevard County under the posting authority of Tramesha Flood. The RFA was posted September 15, 2026, with a submission deadline of September 22, 2026 at 5:00 p.m. The selection committee meeting was held September 15, 2026 at 10:00 a.m. to evaluate applications from not-for-profit agencies seeking funding to provide eligible public services to low- and moderate-income residents in unincorporated Brevard County and eight designated municipalities. The contract period runs October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027. Seven organizations submitted applications and were evaluated by a six-member selection committee using a standardized scoresheet.

The selection committee evaluated applicants across multiple scoring criteria and recommended funding for five agencies: Family Promise Space Coast, WAYS for Life, Inc., Helping Seniors of Brevard County, Inc., Grandparents Raising Grandchildren of Brevard County Florida, Inc., and LEAD Brevard. Total funding available is $204,468.45 distributed among multiple awards, with individual grants ranging from $25,000 to $50,000 minimum and maximum requests. All awardees must provide a 25% match through unrestricted agency cash, in-kind goods and services, or other restricted non-agency funds. The motion to recommend these five agencies for funding passed unanimously. Awards are contingent upon funding availability and Board of County Commissioners approval.
