Council to hold public hearing on 2026 block grant plan funding local nonprofits

Marysville's City Council will hear public comment on May 11, 2026 before considering the CDBG Annual Action Plan, which directs block grant funds to groups like the food bank and Boys and Girls Club 1.

What the records say

The Marysville City Council has scheduled an open record public hearing for Monday, May 11, 2026, at 7:00 PM to consider approving the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Annual Action Plan for Program Year 2026. The hearing takes place at 501 Delta Avenue, 2nd Floor – Council Chambers, with a Microsoft Teams option; the notice was updated to correct the Teams meeting ID and passcode 1. CDBG is a grant program the city uses to fund housing and community development work that mainly benefits low- and moderate-income residents 1. The plan lists three applicants for funding: Homage, the Marysville Community Food Bank, and the Marysville Boys and Girls Club, with project activity in downtown Marysville, the Marysville School District area, and citywide for eligible low-income residents 1. The plan document itself includes an executive summary, a description of the process and citizen participation, a needs assessment and market analysis, and the specific 2026 actions, and it can be viewed on the city's CDBG webpage 1.

Why it matters

This hearing is the public's chance to weigh in on how block grant dollars get spent locally. The plan guides Marysville's investment in housing and community development needs that primarily benefit low- and moderate-income people, and the named applicants — Homage, the Marysville Community Food Bank, and the Marysville Boys and Girls Club — are the organizations in line for those funds 1. Residents can attend in person at 501 Delta Avenue or join by Teams to comment before the council decides 1.
