NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING
RELATIVE TO APPLICATION

FOR FUNDING UNDER THE HOUSING AND COMMUNITY
DEVELOPMENT ACT OF 1974, AS AMENDED
Notice is hereby given that the Jones County Board of Commissioners will conduct a public hearing on October 6, 2025, at 7:00 PM, or as soon thereafter as the agenda will allow, at the Jones County Agricultural Building located at 110 Market Street in Trenton, NC, in relation to Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funding for a project in the community.
In October 2025, Jones County will submit a CDBG-Neighborhood Revitalization (CDBG-NR) application to the NC Department of Commerce for funds to assist with housing improvements for low- and-moderate income households residing in the County. Citizens will also be given the opportunity to provide oral and written comments on the County’s use of CDBG funds. All interested citizens are encouraged to attend.
All project activities will serve households with incomes at or below 80% of the Jones County median income for appropriate household size. The proposed budget includes the following housing-related CDBG activities:
Rehabilitation $855,000
Program Administration $ 95,000
Total Project Budget $950,000
The County will make every effort to minimize displacement; however, all applicable requirements of 49CFR24 and 24CFR570 related to the proposed rehabilitation activities will be implemented, and temporary relocation assistance will be available to owners who are displaced from their residences during construction activity.
For additional information or to submit written comments, contact the Jones County Manager’s Office, 110 Market Street, Trenton, NC 28585. Comments should be postmarked by October 1, 2025.
