Community Development administers the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) grant programs, such as the Community Development Block Grant, Emergency Shelter Grant, and the HOME Program. Funds are used to provide community enhancements, home ownership opportunities, social services, infrastructure projects and economic development initiatives.

The Community Development Division provides many community enhancements, from emergency home repairs and home ownership opportunities for low income persons, to the provision of social services, major infrastructure projects and economic development initiatives. The division's primary mission is to address the housing, economic, and social needs of low to moderate income households, the homeless and others with special needs. Some of these services include:

• The Emergency Assistance Program provides assistance to correct spontaneous and life threatening situations in the home.
• The Low Interest Loan Program provides assistance to promote centralized neighborhood revitalization.
• The Rental Rehabilitation Program provides assistance to encourage rehabilitation of inner city properties into affordable rental housing.
• Federal Funds Administration administers and regulates compliance of Community Development Block Grant funds.
