What is the Cumberland County CDBG Program?

Beginning in 2007 Cumberland County became a HUD Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Urban County Entitlement Jurisdiction. This means the County receives a direct allocation of CDBG funds from HUD. This places Cumberland County in a similar situation as the larger cities in Maine – Auburn, Bangor, Biddeford, Lewiston and Portland. All other communities in the State receive CDBG funds through the State’s Dept. of Economic & Community Development.
