City seeks public input on funding needs of community

News release from the City of Menifee:

MENIFEE -- The City of Menifee is seeking public input on the community’s most pressing needs, which will be used to develop a five-year plan for using federal funding for projects aimed at improving the lives of residents.

Menifee citizens are being asked to participate in a short online survey about priorities and needs in nine areas: housing, community facilities, community/special needs programs, homeless services, business and infrastructure, social services, public transit, natural disaster vulnerability and broadband internet equity.

The feedback will be used for creating the city’s 2022-2027 Consolidated Plan, which is underway and will serve as a strategic roadmap for use of Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds. The plan helps states and local jurisdictions assess their affordable housing and community development needs and market conditions, and make data-driven, place-based investment decisions.

Please click this link to launch the survey. The survey is open through Oct. 31.

If you have questions or comments, or to request the survey in Spanish or other requests, please contact Edna I. Lebrón, senior management analyst in the Community Development Department, at 951-723-3713 or elebron@cityofmenifee.us.
