Ms. Sue Serino
County Executive
22 Market St
Poughkeepsie, NY 12601
Dear Ms. Sue Serino,
Secretary Scott Turner is committed to improving housing opportunities, reducing
regulations to lower housing cost, and expanding housing supply for hardworking Americans.
The nationwide shortage of rental and owner-occupied properties and the current rate of
construction have not kept pace with the demand. This lack of adequate housing supply leads
to higher prices for renters and homebuyers alike, forcing some into homelessness and
preventing countless Americans from becoming homeowners. Across the country, partnerships
between public and private sectors are providing millions of Americans an opportunity to get
ahead. HUD is determined to continue its collaboration with you so programs are responsibly
utilized and can spark additional leveraging and partnerships to address the nation's housing
challenges.
As authorized by the Consolidated Appropriations Act (Public Law 119-75) on
February 3, 2026, 1 am honored and excited to announce that your jurisdiction is receiving the
following Fiscal Year 2026 allocations for the identified programs:
Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) $1,490,350.00
HOME Investment Partnerships Program (HOME) $814,921.22
Emergency Solutions Grants (ESG) $ 0.00
Housing Opportunities for Persons With AIDS (HOPWA) $ 0.00
Recovery Housing Program (RHP) $ 0.00
In addition, your jurisdiction's CDBG allocation for this year provides you with
$7,451,750.00 in available Section 108 loan guarantee borrowing authority. Section 108 permits
you to borrow up to five times of your current CDBG allocation. This loan allows jurisdictions
to maximize access to low-interest capital, and provide long-term financing to invest in
Opportunity Zones, or further address gap financing for big projects that you envision for your
community.
As you are finalizing your Annual Action Plans or Consolidated Plans that are due for
submission to our office by August 16, 2026, please be reminded that it is important to align with
applicable laws and executive orders. If you or any member of your staff have questions, please
2
do not hesitate to contact your local HUD Field Office in Poughkeepsie, NY or
[email protected].
Thank you for your interest in CPD programs and for ensuring that these dollars are
responsibly achieving outcomes as intended by law. When people have a safe and stable place to
call home, they can focus on contributing to the economy and be productive members of their
respective communities.
Sincerely.
