Marysville opens public comment on 2024 community development grant report

The city is taking comments and holding a September 8 hearing on its draft annual report for the 2024 Community Development Block Grant program. 1

What the records say

The city of Marysville has released its draft annual report for the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program for Program Year 2024, and it is now open for public review and comment. CDBG is a federal grant from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) that funds community development activities. The report, called the Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report (CAPER), lets HUD and city residents see how well the program carried out the goals set in the city's Consolidated Plan and 2024 Annual Action Plan, and what was accomplished with the grant money during the year. 1

  • The draft PY2024 CAPER is available for public review and comment, with copies available for download from the city's website. 1
  • A public hearing on the draft report is scheduled for Monday, September 8, 2025 at 7:00 PM in the City Council Chambers at 501 Delta Ave. 1
  • Written comments must be received by Monday, September 8 at 4:00 PM to be included in the final CAPER. 1
  • Comments can be emailed to Kathryn Bird at kbird@marysvillewa.gov or mailed to 501 Delta Avenue, Marysville, WA 98270. 1

Why it matters

This is a chance for residents to weigh in on how federal community development money was spent in Marysville and whether it matched the city's stated priorities. All comments received will be taken into consideration at the hearing and included in the final CAPER, which is the official record of the program's performance for the year. 1
