Show Notes
Lorain County, Ohio, aims to secure Urban County Entitlement status, granting direct access to millions in federal funds for housing and community projects. County commissioners approved a $51,500 contract with Civitas Consulting to prepare the necessary paperwork, including a five-year consolidated plan for local housing needs. This change is expected to increase local control and investments in vital services, such as Meals on Wheels and housing efforts tailored to community demands. Civitas was chosen from ten proposals due to their proven track record, despite some bids being lower in price. Public hearings will gather resident feedback, and the contract payment will be reimbursed through future grant funds.
