Wyoming is given broad authority to design and structure a program to meet local community and economic development needs. However, any project funded with CDBG funds must meet one of three U.S. Housing and Urban Development-imposed national objectives.

• Benefit to low- and moderate-income families.
• Elimination of slums and blight.
• Projects which meet an urgent community development need that pose a serious and immediate threat to the health or welfare of the community.

Eligible Applicants
Only counties and incorporated cities and towns are eligible to apply for CDBG funds. Local governments may apply on behalf of other units of government, non-profit and for-profit businesses, and special interest groups.
