In the Fiscal Years 1990 and 1991, CDBG funds were utilized for the following projects:
housing, economic development, streets, water and sewer, parks and clearance or
prevention of slum and blight. These activities were in compliance with the Community
Development objectives as identified in the Final Statements prepared for the years
mentioned above; they were also in compliance with the national objectives described in
the Code of Federal regulations Book 24, Part 570, Paragraph 901.
The City of Pueblo has a Relocation Plan for minimizing displacement of persons actually
