PASCO COUNTY – Pasco County will receive $585.7 million in federal funding from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development through the Community Development Block Grant-Disaster Recovery program.
Pasco County’s Office of Disaster Recovery and Resources is seeking input on how the money will help the community recover from the impacts of Hurricanes Idalia, Helene and Milton.
The funding can be used for things like infrastructure improvement, affordable housing initiatives and economic revitalization.
The county is hosting public workshops to gather ideas and feedback on how best to allocate the funding. Feedback will help shaft the county’s draft action plan, ensuring resources are directed where they’re needed most.
Better Future Public Input Workshops take place at the following times:
- April 14, 6 p.m. at J. Ben Harrill Recreation Complex, 2830 Gulf Trace Blvd., Holiday.
- April 17, 6 p.m. at Hudson Regional Library, 8012 Library Road, Hudson.
- April 21, 6 p.m. at Moore-Mickens Education Center, 38301 Martin Luther King Blvd., Dade City.
Each session will include a brief presentation followed by an opportunity to provide feedback.
