CDBG Public Facilities Projects in Washington County
Eligible activities under the Public Facilities program include:
Fire Stations, Community Centers, Removal of Architectural Barriers, and Historic Preservation.
Washington County communities have benefited enormously from this program category over the past 30 years. A map describing the location of all CDBG projects in Washington County between 2005 and 2010 gives a flavor of the importance of these funds to Washington County.
