The 2021 Consolidated Plan is the City of New York's submission to the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development's Office of Community Planning and Development (HUD-CPD) of its five-year strategic plan for Consolidated Plan Years 2021-2025.
2021 Five-Year Strategic Plan/One-Year Action Plan
On May 31, 2022, HUD awarded the City the first of two Community Development Block Grant – Disaster Recovery (CDBG-DR) awards in response to the impacts of Hurricane Ida. The two awards total $310,817,000 and must be used for disaster relief, long-term recovery, restoration of infrastructure and housing, economic revitalization, or mitigation against future disasters. As a condition of receiving these funds, HUD required the City to amend its five-year Consolidated Plan within two years to reflect its disaster-related needs. Accordingly, the City has updated the volumes/modules listed below to incorporate its Hurricane Ida-related needs and proposed uses of funding. However, the City is reposting the 2021-2025 Consolidated Plan in its entirety for the public's convenience.
According to the City's Citizen Participation Plan, these updates constitute a minor amendment and are not subject to public comment. If you wish to obtain more detailed information on how the City will use its Hurricane Ida CDBG-DR allocation, please visit CDBG-DR's Hurricane Ida page. Questions about this funding can be directed to cdbgcomments@omb.nyc.gov.

HOPWA'S Strategic Plan Amendment 2022-2025:
As a result of revisions to metropolitan statistical areas (OMB Bulletin No. 18-04) issued by the Office of Management and Budget, the composition of the Metropolitan Divisions within the New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ-PA Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA) will change effective Federal Fiscal Year (FFY) 2022. Per OMB Bulletin No. 18-04 and 42 U.S.C. 12903(c)(2)(B), New York City's HOPWA EMSA jurisdiction for FFY 2022 and subsequent allocations includes the following counties: 1) Bronx, 2) Kings, 3) New York, 4) Queens, 5) Richmond, 6) Putnam, 7) Rockland, and 8) Westchester.
Middlesex County, NJ; Monmouth County, NJ; and Ocean County, NJ, which were previously part of NY's EMSA jurisdiction, will now be part of the New Brunswick Lakewood, NJ Metropolitan Division for FFY 2022 and subsequent HOPWA allocations. The Township of Lakewood, NJ, is eligible to serve as the HOPWA grantee for this new EMSA.
Orange County, NY, which was previously part of NY's EMSA jurisdiction, will now be covered under NYS's HOPWA balance of state service area for FFY 2022 and subsequent allocations. In addition, Putnam County which was previously part of NYS's HOPWA balance of state service area, is now part of NYC's EMSA jurisdiction for FFY 2022 and subsequent allocations.
Beginning in FFY 2022, the city will be adding Resource Identification, a new HOPWA goal to support efforts around the development of housing resources, system coordination, HOPWA training costs, and HIV/AIDS housing needs assessments.
