After 21 years of working with the Georgia Department of Community Affairs (DCA) in the CDBG Small Cities Program, Rome was named the principal City of the Floyd County Metropolitan Statistical area. This designation started a new relationship with the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and enabled Rome to access Entitlement CDGB funds on an annual basis. As of July 2007, our average Entitlement Award is approximately $ 570,000. These funds must be used primarily to benefit low income persons (based on family size and income); eliminate slum and blight; or address an urgent need.  For more information, please visit the links below:
