Marysville residents are invited to review and comment on the annual report evaluating the progress of the city’s Community Development Block Grant program. 

The 2024 Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report (CAPER) provides HUD and city residents an opportunity to evaluate the overall progress of the CDBG program in carrying out the priorities and objectives identified in the Consolidated Plan and Annual Action Plan. It also describes actions, changes and accomplishments during program year 2024 resulting from the federally funded CDBG program.

Some projects and programs that received such funding include: 

• A new roof for the Marysville Community Food Bank and renovations to the Boys and Girls Club,
• Services that allow low-income seniors and disabled adults to remain in their homes, 
• In-home meals for those in need and meals for low-income and homeless schoolchildren, and
• Low-income housing and supportive services for those who qualify. 

The City Council will accept oral and written comments at a public hearing at 7 p.m. on Monday, Sept. 8, at the Marysville Civic Center, 501 Delta Ave. Written comments will also be accepted and must be received by 4 p.m. that day. Email written comments to kbird@marysvillewa.gov or send to Kathryn Bird, City of Marysville, 501 Delta Ave., Marysville WA 98270.
